Russian Invasion of Ukraine Megathread

[Screamer]

Azov Nazis blowing up a train bridge. Pretty kino tbh.

The news here has pivoted to telling us Russia is blowing up bridges now.

As if that makes any sense.

Last night they were telling us about how Russians are indiscriminately attacking civilians. Demonstrated with a shot of children playing in a playground next to a damaged apartment building.

Why post this? Is marketing more important than opsec now?

Canuckistan's premiere neoliberal state-subsidized Dengist propaganda outlet would like you to know that in the face of Russian aggression the Canadian "military" needs to get rid of whites.

I totally agree with this stance. Make all the immigrants serve in the forces. Anyone who wants a temp or student Visa has to join the army.

I found perfect KiwiFarms material.
Someone is throwing a tantrum over democracy being dependent of getting injected and supporting Ukraïna.

That's Cassidy Campbell. Him and Alex Stein show up to council meetings to troll.
There was one where this guy is dressed like a wigger and complains about child support, and right after him Alex Stein shows up in scrubs and starts doing a vaccine rap.

without continuous american meddling in europe this war wouldn't be happening in the first place

What happened when Trump wanted to do exactly that? I'll give you a hint, they balked and threw their support behind the same feckless neocons that were raping Ukraine to infinity and beyond. We kept the white niggers in Europe from chimping out like they always do for decades but they can't help themselves. Now they want to force us into another world war by hook or by crook (and with the crooks running the US they'll get their way).

Bolshevism was a monstrosity. It butchered the hard-line communists that opposed collectivisation, purges and the centralisation of power by Lenin and his cadre. It eradicated Russia's conservative roots and intelligentsia for being "counter-revolutionary", kulaks or whatever-else. It robbed many minorities of their identity through a soviet-styled Russification. It went after anyone that told the state to go fuck itself. And Russia's modern government is comprised of the refuse that was brought up in the USSR, which at its core is really just "everyone is equal under the despot's boot."

The documents show quite clearly that on communists opposed collectivization as a concept. Only as impractical at the moment. It was only Stalin that had the will to go full retard and implement it.

shot in the dick dead

Spoiler: NSFW

an actual oligarchy
Definitions please for "actual oligarchy". Would Plutocracy better describe what I'm talking about? Neo-Feudalism? Corporate Welfare State?
It's certainly not a functioning Republic as intended.

I don't have to try to be clever, it's literally what the WEF goal is. All of these international alliances work together with their programs. None of us voted for any of it.
From Vanguard, to climate change, to Black Rock, to the Bank of International Settlements. Its all constricting totalitarianism by digital means.
China man bad, because no internet. True.
The west you have internet, but if you speak out of line you get cancelled and have your entire reputation tarnished, blackballed, etc.
Sure China you can't own property, you lease it from the government. Well, inversely we have property taxes on top of taxes for everything else.
Next there will be climate taxes, and taxes for the amount of kids you have, or an extra tax on not having an electric car. They'll just keep encroaching on the idea that you don't owe them anything for existing.
I don't see how you can make an argument from your position without ignoring the facts.
I literally can't go inside to eat at a restaurant in Los Angeles because I don't have an mRNA vaccination, but i can sit outside like it's the back of the bus.
That's okay, because the programming makes people think its sensible. That programming is what controls our society as a whole.

The only thing that makes this country superior is that the constitution and political structures were founded here in 1776 by enlightenment thinkers, and the powers that be have to slowly degrade that as opposed to just crushing you directly under a boot like the FSB or the CCP.
At the end of the day a boiled frog is a boiled frog. You're just serving them differently.

lol retard

Also when did russia make a victory announcement?

Presumably he's talking about an incident back on or about February 27th, when the invasion was only days old. RIA Novosti published an article that was quickly taken down. Presumably because the article was praising Putin's successfully invasion of Ukraine. Generally speaking as though Russia had already seized control of Ukraine - particularly the part where is says "Now this problem is gone - Ukraine has returned to Russia." while speaking of the "problem" that if they waited too long they'd have to fight the west for Ukraine - and that Ukraine would henceforth be doing what Russia wanted in the same way that Belarus was.

Here's a google translation of the article if you don't want to translate it yourself or put in through your preferred other machine translation.


So it's technically not specifically a victory declaration. Just a state owned Russian media outlet article that appears to have been auto-posted a few days into the invasion that clear assumed that:
1) There's no fighting going on.
2) That Russia was in control of Ukraine.
3) That Russia would be in control of what Ukraine did in the future.

All at a time when Russian troops weren't even seriously threatening Kiev yet, and were getting their advances stalled in multiple places as they met genuine and organized resistance.

Which makes it difficult to view as anything other than an article that was supposed to be part of victory lap propaganda after Russia swiftly and successfully took control of Ukraine in days.

 

[Chinggis Khan]

I'm a Ruskie and I un-ironically believe that losing this war would be in Russia's best interest in the long run. This war is a jarring exposition of what 20 years of Putin's rampant kleptocracy has done to stymie its own potential. Humbling Russia just might inspire for a radical push for modernisation as opposed to retaining its imperialist ambitions at the expense of their own citizenry.

Just in case anybody else actually believes this shit, Globohomo is not even pretending to hide (more like bragging) that their agenda for Russia is to split it up into like 5 different states. Starting with siberia to cut off Russia from its vast resources, cutting it off from the East, and then maybe start chopping off bits around the caucuses and maybe even pull off St. Petersburg. Leaving a tiny cucked Russian state with no resources, budget, or manpower. They make no secret of supporting ethnic uprisings to make this happen (which is why it is a tad hipocritical when they screech "they are hacking our democracy!!"). They support ethnonationalists like Navalny who actually want to make this happen hoping they will be the ones at the top. Obviously these former Russian states will have the global clout comparable to something like Moldova or Krygistan. Or in fact, pretty much like modern Ukraine: A few corrupt families at the top while all the men toil away asset stripping the country on behalf of globohomo corps for subsistence wages while foreigners of every stripe romp around the major cities showing around all the young women, while anybody with a modicum of talent or intelligence finds their way West.

This is why Russia supports central asian immigration to create economic interdependence, sends remittences back home to families and pull the rug out of ethnic nationalist movements payrolled by globohomo. And seriously, would you rather have some leftover mongols who are actually working and supporting themselves to send money back and probably eventually go back home themselves... or the globohomo African-Arab mish mash getting container-carted in by the millions who dont work, mill around in the streets with their beatboxes, openly sell drugs, collect welfare, while driving around town in an unregistered mercedes benz.

This is why leftists, redditors, and all sorts of trash are flabbergasted when they see Putin's poll numbers. Most Russians generally have a better idea what globohomo has in store for them than Western leftists who will gladly sit their digging their own holes with a shit-eating grin on their face.

The virgin wall of text vs the chad "lol retard".

 

[bread n circuses]

You implied that the West is not superior

I said I wished the West actually was a tyranny so you could learn the difference firsthand

You then tried to be clever by referencing the WEF and said tick tock, i.e., alluding to the future

Which would be a change from your implication that the West is not superior now, since apparently we must wait until the future to see the troof

Oligarchs lol, again, miss me with that shit until you move to an actual oligarchy and be edgy about it on the internet and see what happens

This is a delusion that conflates aesthetics and other ancillary shit with actual power relations.

The west doesn’t need to act like what you think a tyranny acts like because it has developed superior technologies of control and discipline. It makes its population too fat, weak, and selfish to ever consider acting against their rulers. It fills their heads with beliefs from birth using the most sophisticated and extensive socialization apparatus that has ever existed.

Its propaganda is so powerful that people like you unironically think the West’s superiority rests on some dumb bullshit like “democracy” or “freedom” and not on the fact that it brutally conquered the rest of the world and used it to power its economy.

The idea that the west isn’t an oligarchy with a small political, cultural, and economic elite that dominates everyone else is retarded, because no advanced society has ever been structured differently.

 

[Oxous]

I seriously, really doubt it, the spokeswoman of the foreign ministry said this today, it only adds fuel to the "They aren't stopping with Donbass and the land bridge to Crimea" take.

View attachment 3105214

You can also now add to that a statement by Russian senator and Secretary-General of the United Russia party, Andrey Turchak:

TL;DR he says that Russia will rebuild Mariupol and that "Russia is here forever", in case anyone thought giving Donbass back was on the cards.

Ok I actually remember that now and didn't pay it any attention. Generally speaking it seems like a common practice for journalists to write up various articles in anticipation of upcoming news, so they at least have a baseline for what they will write when it's time to go hot off the press. I remember these sorts of things that were identical during the Iraq War, Covid, various Trump bullshit stories, it mostly getss all the conspiracy theorists all worked up when generally it's usually a nothing burger.

 

[Simpadoo]

Probably nothing, since Aegis has already demonstrated the ability to track and shoot down ICBMs. Which also travel at thousands of miles per hour.

Once effective close-in anti-missile systems were developed in the 80s, the missile threat to ships has been too many missiles being fired so some get through. Not singular or a small number of missiles.

So if you had said a few dozen (or couple hundred regular slower missiles from a massed bomber attack like in Red Storm Rising), that would be an issue, but "a few" is just RussiaChina shill fantasy time.

Not all ICBMs are hypersonic and there’s no documented proof of our current system being able to intercept a hypersonic projectile.

Well this slav nigger fucked around and found out.

Don't mess with the Z.

 

[Simpadoo]

This is true at a high level, and in the longer term we'll be OK, but our just-in-time food distribution networks are extremely sensitive to disruption. Same with Energy.

Given that minor transport issues during Covid led to stock issues of some kind in pretty much all of our supermarkets, I wouldn't be surprised to see serious food shortages in parts of the country in the near term. Especially in dense urban areas. Who's ready for another summer of peaceful protest?

Keep your pantries stocked folks.

I guess having a high obesity rate has its perks then.

Sounds like something Khodorkovsky related


Globohomo mad that Putin stopped Western oligarchs from looting Russia and they want to break it so they can get back at it. The geopolitical shit around this conflict is wild and could be massively consequential, but tons of people are treating this as nothing more than football game. Blows my mind, but MPAI.

True, it'd hardly be the first time a draft article was accidentally run. Still, they're usually stuff like obituaries or articles about something the reporter has a solid preview of. Things where a lot of the article will be background information or insider information that can be easily written ahead of time and just updated a bit. Not purely speculative articles that praise a state of affairs that doesn't even come close to reality. The source being state owned doesn't make it any easier to write off as some random dude screwing up either, as far as many people are concerned.

Azov Nazis blowing up a train bridge. Pretty kino tbh.

This is also exactly how you blow up a viaduct that you're not supposed to be blowing up in minecraft. Put a bunch of explosives between the abutments and the deck. You can get them from a quarry. The explosion cracks the deck from the abutment and lifts it into the air a little bit, causing the whole thing to be irreaparably destroyed. Best to get it with a train on the bridge, but then you run the risk of enemy EOD finding your work. Dropping it without breaking the rails is almost as good because the track circuit is still intact, preventing the railroad from detecting that trouble is ahead. If you think enemy patrols won't be a problem, you can rig a detonator using a car alarm that will sense that the train is vibrating the bridge. Just make sure to include an interlock so you don't blow yourself up first. Be sure to wear a hoodie and sunglasses so nobody knows who you are when you do your little project to help save the environment.

Please use this information wisely.

Lol. Irreparable. To a nigger maybe.
