Military frontlines don't care where borders are. What kind of question is even that?

A perfectly valid question since Ukraine, and people who support Ukraine, will both try to argue that the DPR and LPR are part of Ukraine, but will also deny that there are any pro-Russian Ukrainians. It can't be both ways. Either there is a large portion of the Ukrainian population that wants to break away from Ukraine and supports Russia, or Ukraine is the aggressor against a group of people it does not consider to be part of Ukraine.

Regardless though, it's a completely moot point since we know for a fact there is a substantial amount of pro-Russian sentiment in Ukraine even outside of the Donbas region because Ukraine has been very open about trying to suppress said sentiment.

Ritter presents an interesting argument, the electronic actuators fail at a high rate but at the same time there's tanks getting repaired that survived 5 hits.
How the fuck are Ukrainians scoring 5 hits with weapons that literally fail to actuate the control surfaces at unacceptably high rates?

Who knows what they consider a hit? Let's say that the missile actuators actually fail and it whiffs the tank by a couple inches, the heat warhead discharges into the ground, and you still get a big ass explosion and dust cloud, and Ivan's buddy reloading the javelin wonders why that hit did nothing. Or it hits the tracks instead of the main hull, or it hits the engine deck and knocks out the engine without the tank going up in a big fireball, etc..

“AFU soldiers! Surrender!
We are not your enemies.
This cat has surrendered to Russian forces in the first days of the war.
It is kept in warmth, fed good food and all necessary veterinary help is being provided.
Ukrainian soldier, give up your weapons and you will be just like this cat.”
Obviously a meme but it belongs here nonetheless.

To be honest, there isn't much point into replying to a lunatic like Louise Mensch. I wouldn't surprised if she has her own lolcow thread on this site. Still, I guess she is useful to certain people. Remember when she said Trump was going to be arrested, tried for treason and executed? Good times.

How the fuck are Ukrainians scoring 5 hits with weapons that literally fail to actuate the control surfaces at unacceptably high rates? That should mean having to fire 8-10 missiles to get 5 hits, and if this happened to several Russian tanks something seriously wrong happened to just let AT crews fire and reload at them. Those are freak circumstances that happen once in a war.
When someone is doing the "it doesn't work and also when it works it doesn't do the job" the BS sensors start to go off. Sounds very similar to Reformist arguments.

In addition, how do these damaged tanks 'prove' that Javelins don't work, these tanks can be getting hit from AT4s or even fucking RPG-7s.

Also mandatory information about Ritter.

Um, no. The people of the DPR and LPR declared their independence from the illegitimate coup regime in Kiev. The people of Crimea voted not just to break away from Kiev but to rejoin the Russian Federation. The illegitimate coup regime in Kiev imagines it owns the people of those lands and has the right to force their extreme ethno-nationalist identity onto them, which is why they revolted and why there has been a state of "war" in that region for the better part of a decade, which is also a huge part of why the current situation exists. It's also why the illegitimate coup regime in Kiev is being referred to as "fascist", "Nazi" and any number of unflattering things, because it imagines it owns people and has the right to use military might and violence to enforce its will - and it and the "enlightened" West just can't stand the idea that Moscow is saying, "Nyet".

The liars in Kiev, as well as the liars bankrolling them, will say/do anything to further their goal of pushing their extreme ethno-nationalist ideology, and the liars in the West supporting them because they believe it will hurt Russia will allow them to do it, despite the fact that everything about the illegitimate coup regime in Kiev and the people who support/brought it about is contradictory to the mores of the EU circa 2022 - which, ostensibly, Nuevorussia seeks to become a de fact province of.

Northern Ireland Secretary about Cossack Gundi and Shaun Pinner: "you shouldn't have been there"
Less than 2 months ago the same people were promoting the foreign legion and it was a noble & heroic thing to join them.

I think that the next coming days we will witness how Cossack Gundi will fall apart and turn into a pathetic crying mess. Right now he's still in
denial and has good hopes. He probably believes that it's just a formality and that he will be in the UK by next week or at least by the end of this month.

Edit - Vince disagrees.

I think Britain will have to do some kind of swap. At the end of the day, they encouraged people to go over there and are now trying to disown them. That's absolutely something Russian propaganda will capitalize on.

It's cherrypicking cope; and Ritter is exactly the type of officer I'd expect to be compromised, given that his integrity has been proven to be seriously flawed. Hell, I'd take Lancaster's word over his maybe.

Man, who fought in two wars, have been in Mariupol' for at least 30 days, run out of everything imaginable during the siege, gets captured and forced to say whatever he asked to say if he does not want to be killed or tortured, and tranny just throws him under the bus.
And all that this tranny ever did is some propaganda and giving poor Ukrainian soldiers some STDs.
I fucking hate trannys so much it's unreal.

Is it wrong of me to assume that he is also most likely getting cucked?
