Russian Invasion of Ukraine Megathread

[Smity Werbenjagermanjensen]

A look inside the mind of NPCs concerning this issue:

I just had a brief conversation (more verbal slap fight) with my grandparents about this whole situation, and it started when my grandfather compared Zelensky to Churchill. I brought up that Ukraine is a corrupt country and that everyone hated Zelensky over the Trump phone call until this happened, and both of my grandparents started yelling at me (my grandmother couldn't even pronounce Zelensky's name right). I brought up that no one cared about Ukraine until this whole situation popped off and supporting Ukraine became the Current Thing™. I got more yelling about bombing hospitals and people dying, so I just walked away before it could get worse. I feel like I shouldn't be surprised my grandparents acted like this; they both have a raging case of TDS because they watch MSNBC all day, and my grandfather genuinely believes that George Floyd was a poor abused victim who dindu nuffin.

Two things can be true at once, you couldn't give a fuck about Ukraine before this (only thing that concerned me was STALKER 2) and know it's a corrupt shit hole, while also believing Russia causing a war like this is bad, especially if you believe the goal is annexation of at the very least major regions of Ukraine.

May I introduce you to a similar genre of hilarity that I hold near and dear to my heart, that being the Ghana military exhibitions?

He's just crossing himself and shouting "Ukraine" and "Putin is a dick", a garden variety insult around here.

I got that, I was trying to be sarcastic but it didn't work

I have no idea why this guy is cracking up but I think the guy in the middle of the road has something to do with it.View attachment 3131124

You might be curious.
He screams: "Україна понад усе!"
Which is literally: "Ukraine uber alles is above all!"

The dude is sitting on his knees in the middle of the road, constantly crossing himself and yelling: "Putin is a dick" and "glory to Ukraine." About the same thing that is happening in this thread. It's universally funny.

I do not consent to this!





Ladies ladies, I come negotiate peace: you’re both wrong and true German beer, fresh from the fatherland, is the best drink in this situation!

Make it Belgian beer and I'm on board.

 

[naaaaiiiiillllll!!!]

I take it from the half-hearted bait posting (@Suburban Bastard looking at you), bizarrely playful slap fights (all of us), and random anecdotal stories, no major updates to the war have happened?

Trying to see through this fog of war is more like looking through mud…

If you want major war updates, this is the last place you should look.

I swear it has been this exact "missile capable of reaching the coast" thing every time. Sometimes they are actually dumb enough to believe NK propaganda that says it could reach anywhere in the US. Do I believe they are capable of producing such a missile? Sure, but I don't think they could maintain more than a few of them in launch capacity. They can't even feed their own people, their infrastructure is crumbling and their military is primarily composed of ancient and unchanging equipment, not even to mention how their military doctrine is probably identical to what it was in the Korean war.

Interestingly enough North Korea unveiled a new fake MBT a couple years ago. Claimed it had advanced APS, high tech optics including thermal and night vision optics, and ERA.
Totally not bullshit guys, trust me, North Korea STONK!

It bist thu who bist der underman.
russians have genetic defects as they are half breeds (children of incest are also mutants). russians are cattle bred to be slaves. russians are defilement of the human race. russians generate fictional ideas and justify their crimes with those fictional ideas. Russians are half breed degenerates with crooked faces.
Russian cattle must be forcibly driven into nursing homes,barracks and labor camps where
they live and end their life as they should - in the abomination of the stink, bleating grunts diseases. they know nothing but to be militarists. Bloodsucking militarists hatch from role-players (a type of schizoids), communists, imperialists,
Rodnovers, fascist patriots. The goal in life of the russian swine is to find a master, an idol . The russians are simply unevolved animals. they reject freedom.
Their language is medieval jargon. RUSSIANS do not need the head because the TV thinks for them. the goal of a Russian patriot is to humiliate other races and sell patriotic underpants, and to dream to capturing new lands and the superiority of the russian race. Only Russia has the largest number LARPERS -
lovers of fictional crap (escapism) - liers and schizophrenics. only the brain of schizophrenic can generate fictional things quickly - as quickly as the russians do. Good russian is dead russian. They lie about everything. they are envious and petty.
They brand anyone who disagrees with them as enemies. They worship mass murderers and even the church supports stalin.
The russians are fascist as the matter of fact. And they have skinheads and imperialists and communistic revanchists too.
If a russian soldier stepped on ukrainean land - he should be killed. Russians are pigs, swines. If you copy russian propaganda - you are a monkey, a religious subhuman - because you see they also like fictional thingies . Russia should be decommunised and be taught a lesson. If you feel pity when a russian pig dies - you are the enemy, a schizophrenical animal who is soaked with propaganda. Religious animals is the problem. They really like fictional things. It is the peculiarity of their brain.

But, how do you really think about Russians? Come on, be honest.

They can always invite Putin's political advisor to coach them. I am sure it will be difficult - very difficult - but you can rest safe knowing the next mayor of Chicago will be Vladimir Putin.

I once saw the series Boss with Kelsey Grammer and I really hope that is not how Chicago politics are done.

D'oh! I really shouldn't be reading these forums this late at night, it makes me slow-in-the-mind. Let me make up this for you by posting a funny article.

The ghouls in London object to a too-early peace between Russia and Ukraine because it would be "unfavorable for Kiev". As the saying all the way back from the era of the Great Game goes, "the Englishwoman is shitting".



Here's the link to the original article in the Times if anyone's interested.

The best Belgian beers come from the French Part. Fight me.

As far as the 2:1 K/D ratio, that is just too insane to believe. Closest to Russian dominance over the Japs to that degree is when the Japs got raped by those nukes and the Russians decided to invade Manchuria against a heavily weakened Nippon around that time, about 40 odd years later.

He responded to some guy on twitter that the Japs had 100 thousand casualties just in Port Arthur but the official count provided by Clodfelter (2017) are 59,304 battle casualties (including 15,390 dead)

In total, 80,378-94,539 Japs became fatalities by all causes and the Russian officials after the war said that the Russian lost 48,500 dead by all causes but later countings say that the Russians in total had 71,453 fatalities in this war.

The hohols also caused my one and only spirit of choice, Russian vodka, to become unavailable so they can go fuck themselves with a rusty pipe studded with nails wielded by Russia.

Sorry nigger, I'm a whiskey lover.

And that's why you Brokedick Farm Ayy-Lawgs are all wrong because there is only one objectively correct answer:

Tell 'em Gaydu- oh wait...

The Brits are thinking long term here and saying the quiet part out loud. As things stands, Russia had the initiative this month because they got to choose when the war started. Now that they have failed to secure most of their pre war objectives, it would be foolish to insist Ukraine accept some sort of Russian offered peace deal at this juncture

The simple truth is Ukraine has no reason to end the war right now. Not when they are in a position to go on the offensive and their military is stronger now then it was at the start of this. Why should Ukraine accept peace if it means ceding a quarter of its territory along with Kherson and Mariople?

No, this war is going to continue. Russia is going to have to try and hold onto its gains first before peace is actually considered.

Not sure if it’s the French part of Belgium, but those fancy small batch Lambic beers are probably the most unique artisanal beers I ever had. I can see those argued as one of the best beers.
