Russian Invasion of Ukraine Megathread

[Maurice Caine]

In response to faggot cowards like @Vince McMahon, Ukraine has created at marketing campaign to try and meme hohols into the bravest people of all time.

No doubt there are brave people in Ukraine, and I have a certain amount of respect for the AFU soldiers who've been engaged brutal fighting for the last 54 days. That being said, I think that bravery is largely contingent on billions of dollars of western aid already received, and the promise of likely hundreds of billions in aid when it comes time to rebuild.

The Taliban did more with effectively no aid and 40 year old rifles and RPGs. No doubt there is bravery on the Russian side as well. I think there are a number of places in the world where you would find the same kind of bravery under similar circumstances. Ukraine doesn't have a monopoly on bravery and I think it's pretty gay for them to try and meme that they do.

I don't like how they say bravery, the word's way too overused these days.

Ukraine is big gay, this is established. Their president used to be known as 'Slippery Pierre':

A fatwa on hoholsexuals, may the cleansing fires of Allah excoriate their buttholes!

Whether or not Russia has helped armed their allies in the LPR & DPR in recent times against the aggressors in Kiev hellbent on denying them their right to self-determination is irrelevant. As far as their use as "proxy forces", they've been more than determined to fight for their right to exist as a separate state and, far more than any of the disposable "heroes" of the AFU, have earned to be seen as brave.

Out of curiosity, what do you think of Russia's actions in every part of Ukraine that isn't the LPR & DPR? It seems to me that the Russians intend to deny those people their right to self-determination too.

I've retrieved very real footage from the last fighters holed up in the Azovstal bunkers:

Despite being the obvious shitpost video it's kinda wholesome, ngl.

Weren't those things meant to dispose of trash in the field?

Not realy, these things are often used for water delivery, remembering my army days we had some field excercises that were going on quite a while. While we had our own water the polygon command were sending us a truck with edible cargo and water supply.

Obvious idiocy and very expensive bait (hello Kiev)
Plus sometimes succesfull (-in)direct air raids

I don't believe Russia wants to control Ukraine long-term, nor do I think they're particularly interested in "regime change", though I suspect they would like to see whatever regime is in power rein in the extremist ethno-nationalist element that's creating a great deal of the chaos.

I don't see where Russia is interested in keeping the so-called "Ukrainian" people from either developing an identity or having relations with other nations, though I'm sure they [and this would be true of any nation] wish to protect their interests there. Their opposition to the EU trade agreement that Yanukovych didn't want to go along with unless it included significantly more capital investment wasn't so much about keeping Ukraine from doing business with the EU, but about trying to bring about a "tripartite" agreement that would have benefited everyone. The EU, being the EU, basically told Yanukovych that he could either do business with them or with Russia, not both. Of course Russia, which already had trade agreements with Ukraine, objected to that, as did Yanukovych. So, naturally, he put on the brakes.

There was no self-determination movement in Luhansk and Donetsk oblasts until the Russian cocksucking president got coup'd then all of a sudden they wanted muh self determination, it's a joke lol. Especially considering Russia's strict respek for the principle of self-determination inside its own borders

Malcolm Nance Is Risking His Life Defending Ukraine As Republicans Support Putin​

Malcolm Nance has been writing best-selling books about Russia and the threat to US democracy for years, but he is doing more than writing and talking in a TV studio.

Nance is putting his life on the line for democracy.

The Russian invasion of Ukraine demonstrates that authoritarian / totalitarian regimes were emboldened by Trump and the erosion of the US as the flagship for global democracy.

The fight for democracy is real. As Nance said, innocent civilians are being murdered in Ukraine by a man who is so threatened by democracy that he is trying to exterminate an entire nation.

This make me feel so much better about everything.

Whether or not Russia has helped

Uhhh, you don't get to pretend that shit doesn't matter. Because it totally changes the context from "oppression" to "civil war as a proxy conflict".

As far as their use as "proxy forces", they've been more than determined to fight for their right to exist as a separate state and, far more than any of the disposable "heroes" of the AFU, have earned to be seen as brave.

I never said they weren't brave.

The Afghan people who drove out the Soviets were brave. But they were being used as proxy forces for the US.
Being brave has nothing to do with the nature of the conflict. You came here presenting a one-sided view of the war that needed the reality check - there would be no deaths if Russia wasn't using their glowie ops to get what they want.
I couldn't give less of a shit if people are pro-Russia, and generally speaking separatism is pretty based. Just don't ask me to believe these fairytales of innocent Putin vs the war criminal Zelensky.

Not realy, these things are often used for water delivery, remembering my army days we had some field excercises that were going on quite a while. While we had our own water the polygon command were sending us a truck with edible cargo and water supply.

Wait, I thought they were garbage incinerators, and they used them to bake bread (ew).
Now you're telling me they carry water...?

People say that this was done to disrupt NATO weapons shipments.

Will be proven to be only slightly effective because there's a shitton of other ways and roads which can be used for happy meal delivery.
But good trophy netherless.

Now you're telling me they carry water...?

Not exactly this particular model but a similar one, yes.

RUSLAN! EMP MUST BE READY AT 4!

Tangentially related, but it seems like the EU will be cutting off their nose to spite their face shortly. There is strong rumour that the EU will implement a full embargo on Russian oil after the French election is over (lol Zerohedge, but Reuters is reporting it).

With what that move would do to energy prices best get ready for Summer of Love 2.0: the Worldwide Electric Boogaloo Edition.

Gotta love globalist Democratic process of waiting for the desired to win before enacting pre decided decisions.

Russian Internet watchdog Roskomnadzor specifically banned Kiwifarms, per the decision of some district court in Ulan-Ude, I believe.

Which is, I agree, is exceptionally retarded, yet we ruskie Kiwis are still there.
A fucking mystery, y'know...

 

[1Tonka_Truck]

so short, Russians showed proof that their tanks had been hit many times and still carried on fighting.
lol muh javelin niggers seething

The only upgrade to actuators I am aware of reduced their weight, increasing missile range from 2500m to 4000m.

For every picture that pedo can find of a tank that's been hit multiple times by something and is still mobile, I can find 5 playing the turret toss game. Unless someone wants to argue the auto loaders are causing random ammo explosions, and not Ukrainians making hits with ATGMs, I'm going to continue to dismiss anything Ritter says.

And for anyone that forgot, Russia already used the random ammo explosion excuse once this week. That definitely wasn't embarrassing.

Obviously I assumed they filled ceramic pots and carried them by hand, considering they have no paved roads and street lights.
But for real, the post was about the "mobile crematoriums" that were used to bake bread. I just hope the insides were scrubbed clean or else that bread was like an American military base burn pit in solid form.

There's several forms of control.
One thing people are saying - that I happen to agree with - is that when the UK had a referendum to leave the EU, much salt was collected from Eurotard tears but eventually they were allowed to leave. When Ukraine wanted to leave the Russian sphere of influence, it got bombed the fuck out. This is a form of control.
If a liberal, pro "democracy" president is elected in Ukraine, but he has to keep NATO and the EU at a distance to not piss off Russia - Ukraine is under a form of control.
If there's going to be regime change whenever Ukraine elects a nationalist leader... that's an even more serious form of control.

 

[IKOL]

It's stuff like this that makes Russia such a fascinating country. It's a shame it's led by shambling retards.

I'm sorry little fella, but it seems you mistaken Russia with the United States of America and, by the addition, NNorth Korea. Please reconsider your post content and make amends. Thank you.

Oh, you can be assured they were tonguelicked clean alright.
I know this by my own experience, I had to work at field kitchens sometimes so I know stuff. If anything, military cooks are not the ones that let sanitary run poor, because from how clean the ovens the healphy food a soldier get.

Bruh, they literally said that they want to put current Ukrainian government on trail
