Tidying up the north and east enables them to send units south toward Crimea, which is more heavily defended.
1:06 PM
Hard to say whether they'll focus on Crimea, or Luhansk / Donetsk first.
1:07 PM
I don't think they'd be able to attack all three regions at once, and Crimea is the more strategic location. Luhansk and Donetsk have pro-Russian partisans amongst the populace, conflict there will be protracted. Crimea less so.
1:09 PM
However, with Russia losing hundreds upon hundreds of armored and support vehicles, potentially thousands or tens of thousands of soldiers captured, it's possible Russia abandons Luhansk and Donetsk to focus on Crimea, which is more important to Putin. (edited)

Going securing Luhansk/ Donetsk to the 2008 border significantly lengthens the front lines. So yeah that's unlikely, unless with the rumored destruction of that tank army Russia there are no units close by that can plug that gap.

The best support action, if at all possible, would be another offensive toward the Sea of Azov. Separating Donetsk front form the Crimean front. Making it harder to supply Kherson based units.

Russian General Surovikin has just reported to Minister Shoigu on state TV, suggesting a pull-out from Kherson, saying that Russia cannot properly defend the city and its residents. Shoigu has agreed.
By withdrawing from Kherson, Russia will have lost the only Ukrainian regional capital it has captured since the start of the invasion.

Ukraine should fight as much as it can and retake as much land as possible and inflict as many casualties upon Russia as possible. But I'm no expert on the military situation. So when people in our government who are that high up and have access to infinitely more intel and have way more experience regarding military shit say these kinds of things, I tend to think they have a reason for it. At the same time, there are other officials who do not want Ukraine to negotiate. So it is split. Either way, he can't force Ukraine to negotiate. The only way the US could do that would be by threatening to cut off all aid if they don't negotiate, and even then, the decision is still up to the Ukrainians (edited)

This war is primarily about preventing Ukraine from joining NATO and threatening other countries like Georgia and Finland into not doing the same (which didn't work, obviously). Self-determination? Russia did not and does not support self-determination for Albanians in Kosovo or for Chechens within Russia itself. It only supports "self-determination" in Donbas, Crimea, Abkhazia, South Ossetia and Transnistria to weaken Western-leaning governments and have bargaining chips. Protecting ethnic Russians? There was little actual persecution of ethnic Russians going on in Donbas and Crimea, especially before the separatist uprisings began during February to April 2014. Denazification? The amount of Nazis in Ukraine does not seem significantly higher than the amount in other European countries, including Russia. They have only ever held like one to three seats in Parliament (as the Svoboda Party). There is a real and troubling presence of Nazis in the country though, but it didn't pose a threat to Russia, nor was it significantly higher than in other countries. Ukraine is a threat to Russia? No. Russia holds nuclear weapons, a permanent UN Security Council seat and a military, industry, land area and population size several times bigger than the Ukrainian one. For eight whole years, Ukraine could not even retake control over its own territory held by rebels, even with Western military aid. The only real reason is that Ukraine wanted to join the EU and NATO, which would permanently separate it from Russian influence and place Russia's rival/enemy alliance along its borders more than before. And, just as a disclaimer for people who cannot tell or do not know me well enough: This was NOT, is NOT and will NEVER be a valid, moral or legal justification for invasion. Слава Україні. (edited)

And yes I do have evidence but I don't feel comfortable sending the second video as it's....morbid as hell
5:42 AM
Basically, the first video, which is edited to hell, shows ukrainian soldiers pushing a house being used as a defensive position by the Russians
5:43 AM
the Russians surrendered and the Ukrainians went in to capture them
5:43 AM
wyen they did, around 9 Russian soldiers come out and surrender and everything is fine
5:43 AM
until a 10th one comes out with a gun and starts firing
5:44 AM
that's whwre the first video cuts and the second one comes in
5:44 AM
the Ukrainians had made it
5:44 AM
but the Russians did not, as it shows the Russian soldiers that surrendered dead, they had not moved from their surrendering positions

when you are there personally in that situation and your life is at risk, you might make different choices than when you are sitting comfortably behind a keyboard.
10:40 AM
Ukraine has bent over backwards to make surrendering easy for Russians. they drop leaflets. they have hotlines setup. they send mass text messages to cell phones. they take care of their prisoners and treat them well, unlike the Russians. listen to the latest Popular Front podcast interview with a defender from Mariupol who spent 6 months in a Russian jail being beaten and threatened with mock executions and shit. The Russians chose to go into Ukraine and murder civilians. Russia is a terrorist state. When they abuse the surrender process they cause a lot more suffering and death. If their leadership had any competence or care, the leaders would train the soldiers to surrender properly. But Russia doesn't do that. They lie/cheat/steal/bullshit their way through everything. They torture and murder and trick civilians so they can kill them.

Ukraine has bent over backwards to make surrendering easy for Russians. they drop leaflets. they have hotlines setup. they send mass text messages to cell phones. they take care of their prisoners and treat them well, unlike the Russians. listen to the latest Popular Front podcast interview with a defender from Mariupol who spent 6 months in a Russian jail being beaten and threatened with mock executions and shit. The Russians chose to go into Ukraine and murder civilians. Russia is a terrorist state. When they abuse the surrender process they cause a lot more suffering and death. If their leadership had any competence or care, the leaders would train the soldiers to surrender properly. But Russia doesn't do that. They lie/cheat/steal/bullshit their way through everything. They torture and murder and trick civilians so they can kill them. They claimed to offer safe passage for civilians out of Mariupol and then when those people start walking out of the area, they kill them with artillery. What happened in that video is on the Russians. "but its a war crime" you probably have never seen combat and have no idea what its like.

it still does not change the fact that they killed 9 people who had surrendered
Consider if all 10 men had surrendered, the Ukrainian soldiers established control and handcuffed the prisoners, began to process them, but then just decided to shoot all 10 of them. Clearly a violation of the Geneva Convention which both sides technically are legally bound to follow. But that's not what happened, even by your own admission. 9 people surrendered, then an enemy combatant re-engaged. At that point the Ukrainians may not have been able to establish or maintain prisoner control, now there could be 10 Russian enemy combatants. It's war, you don't have time to analyze a situation after the fact, you have to react as fast as possible. (edited)

I've been in wartime prisoner detainment scenarios, one in fact when a supposedly passive surrendering man pulled out a firearm. Even one person, with a semi-auto pistol, turns what would be a relatively calm procedure into a fucking shitshow. How do we know that gunman who created the shitshow didn't shoot his surrendering troops? That is the punishment in Russia for surrendering after all. There isn't enough evidence as you describe the video to determine warcrimes. What I do know is that Russian troops have been looting, raping, and murdering civilians as a matter of standard procedure. If I was in Ukraine and my unit found a Russian unit that had done so. There would be no prisoners. (edited)

The soldier opened fire with a standard AR, a Ukrainian soldier was aiming a PKM, and I beleave that was a 'just in case' scenario
Avatar
You mean AK... still 30 rounds of death is 30 rounds of death. And a hell of a shitshow when everyone is just waiting for soldiers to surrender. So you've got a squad that has been prepped for or actively engaged in combat... they believe their enemy is surrendering, everyone breathes a sigh of relief, it's no longer combat just mop up. Guard is maintained but it's like going from level 10 to level 5 adrenaline rush... suddenly one doesn't surrender but in fact starts shooting... Everyone goes from calm mop up state of mind to oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck in literally half a second or less. There is no conscious thought, there is getting back to combat. The 10th Russian endangered his fellow soldiers even if the Ukrainians killed them. War crimes are deliberate thoughtful actions... raping civilians... targeting hospitals and schools... relocating civilians a thousand km away from their homes... dismembering bodies... cold blooded murder outside of combat. This was in combat... the Russian saw to that when he opened fire. (edited)

10 Russians to 5+ Ukrainians, one of which turns out to actually still be a combatant. The guy with the PKM might have saved his entire squad's life. If my squad is outnumbered by the folks we're taking prisoner, you goddamned bet that every swinging dick who isn't actively restraining prisoners will have their weapons at the ready to shoot every motherfucking one of them. This is life and death we're talking about and literally death comes in 3 tenths of a second.

Okay, From the drone footage you can only be certain of one person being shot in the head, and he is in a very different position from when he surrendered. He's face up, and it's unlikely that he was shot in the back of the head since there is not enough damage to his face to justify an exit wound. There are 3-4 others who "might" have sustained wounds to their upper chest/neck/head, but there is no evidence of it other than the location of the blood on the ground. The remainder appear to be dead, but with no obvious blood pooling visible. And other than the face up soldier none have any visible wounds. The PKM line of fire was right down the line of surrendering soldiers (actually a bad spot to fire on the gunman who opened fire because the building wall shielded the gunman from view). But if the PKM opened up from prone in order to hit the gunman he'd have had to pick the PKM off it's bipod and lift it, from prone this is a poor position to fire from. I have no doubt his fire was wild and hit some of the surrendering soldiers. (edited)

AIF Cuirassier regiment 11/18/2022 8:41 PM
Good point, most likely that happened
Avatar
At the end of the Ukrainian cell phone footage you can see just what state of chaos began when the gunman opened up. Now, after such a chaotic situation, it's POSSIBLE, that the surviving Ukrainians (I cannot believe none of them were hit by the ambushing gunman, he had a clear target and was aiming at someone when he fired), could have been so furious over the turnabout of events that they took it out on surviving Russians. That would be a war crime. My guess is that all of them were wounded in shooting the gunman, and they were left to die. The odd one out however is a mystery. How'd he get turned over? How'd he take a bullet to the face? He would have been in or near the line of return fire from a not pictured Ukrainian who was being shot at by the gunman. Did he look up to see what was happening and take a stray bullet to the face from the Ukrainian initially under fire? Then the Ukrainians turned him over to see if he was dead? Too many unknowns, not enough information. And why did the guy next to face man die 4 meters forward of where he surrendered? That's a LONG way to move, unarmed in the middle of a firefight, or after a firefight when ostensibly you have surviving Ukrainians telling you to stay where you are.

I believe it happened, articles written by Ukrainian Anarchists/Anti-fascists had been all agreeing on the fact that the nationalists had several years of recruiting and indoctrination ahead of them, one estimated the number of fash to be about 10 times the number of Anarchists. Which was shocking to me as Ukraine was the birthplace of militarized Anarchists... but the truth they say is that USSR wiped out the memory of Makhnovists from Ukraine (often with murder or forced relocation).

Puts to rest any conspiracy about the helicopter attack that happened early in the war. But if the drone released it's bombs low enough to avoid radar detection that would explain it if the drone was what crashed on the runway there... even just 500lb bombs require 500 knots ground speed at 500 foot altitude weapons release to avoid damage. The drone would have had to have been lower than that to avoid detection... given that the airbase probably has several SAM sites I'd plan a 200 foot altitude or lower approach popping up only once I was in the minimum range of the SAMs and dropping back down immediately after detonation. But Ukraine probably didn't have attack pilots flying that drone... so they might not have thought about blast radius. There was apparently a test flight of a Ukrainian designed 1000km range attack drone scheduled... so it's likely that was it.

That's the influence of Psychopaths and folks with psychopathic traits. They have desires like anyone else, but lack the processing power in the centers of the brain responsible for compassion, empathy, consequence, and guilt. So they get an idea on how to use a good thing to accomplish their goal, and run with it without having any comprehension of the consequences, particularly the human damage. An estimated 6-10% of the population have enough traits to qualify as a psychopath according to the Psychopathy Checklist - Revised. About 75% of those are male. Probably another 20% of the population have enough to be a detriment to those around them. It's not human nature... but it's also not a recessive genetic trait that has been removed from humanity yet. Not that I'm saying we should target folks for removing that trait. But we've gone several hundred years without wars in which those people are culled from the herd naturally (ancient and medieval era wars were good for that due to the poor survival rates of wounded and the expectation that leaders would be directly in the fighting), and capitalism rewards people with those traits with wealth if not fame. Which makes it more likely for them to reproduce. (edited)

Climate change will take care of most of the collapse of the system... if the christo-fascists don't try to accelerate it's fall (which they are actively trying to do here). When people's children start starving and capitalism does nothing substantial to stop it (because their window to stop it is closing fast and by the time no one can deny the effects it'll be too late) the entire capitalist system is going to eat itself.

Absolutely true. While they would have air support within an hour, and a possible 3000 ish Marines within 4 hours, unless Russia did the convoy mistake again it wouldn't be a cakewalk for Poland. But USAF forces could wipe out Russian anti-air in two hours, and have A-10 II CAS supporting Polish forces right after. With Eurofighters providing CAP the sky would be all NATO. (edited)

There is something to support this. At the start of the war Azov was a very small organization without recruitment support from Ukraine... this changed immediately after the invasion and Ukraine started assigning soldiers to them swelling their ranks by 4-5 times as many as prior to the war. Prior they were all fash... but by the end of the first month or two they were less than 20% fash hardliners. Then they were surrounded, besieged, and all but massacred. With only a few squad size groups alive afterwards. Whatever reinforcements they've had have been average joe Ukrainians, not hardline fash. I'm not sure how much of their leadership survived, but It's unlikely all of them did with the casualties they took.

Fair... I'm not in a position to confirm one way or another, but it's extremely unlikely that those who survived were all hardline fascists. And even more unlikely that the reinforcements that they've gotten from Ukraine have been fascist aligned. It's safe to assume that the fash our Anarchist comrades have identified for us otherwise are still active in Ukraine. But it's also likely that the comradery built of fighting alongside non-fash against a common enemy has tempered their rhetoric some. WWII, Korea, and Vietnam did a lot for getting rid of racism in the US for the same reason. White racists getting their lives saved by minorities tends to cut through childhood indoctrination real fucking quick. (edited)

The spread pattern on a long barrel shotgun makes standard training in CQB useless against armored individuals. (I was a shotgunner and at times M-14 gunner on Vessel Boarding Search and Seizure actions in the Navy) Center mass is the plate... the spread pattern is less than 4 inches in CQB... you'll blow someone off their feet (ostensibly your partner will take them out with their rifle or pistol) but you alone aren't going to kill them, and while you are racking the next shell you've been shot 10 times from the AK in the hands of the other guy defending the room). Hell it's possible buck won't penetrate the carrier/gear over the plate let alone the plate. You HAVE to aim at the extremities to do any damage at that range against armored targets, and that's just not practical. Shotguns in combat are for blowing door locks and against unarmored combatants or terrorizing civs. Back in WWII through Vietnam they were useful... but not with modern soldiers in body armor.

...or liberation of Kherson, perhaps. It sounds weird to call it a "fall" when it fell to Russian troops in the first place and the Ukrainians are just taking it back

Payment for loyalty, a token appearance of big man confers much imperial credibility to Lukashenko, prepares for reception of more Rus settlers, eventual resorption into the Make Soviet Again movement.

Translated article from TASS:
"Let's be frank, are we able to defend our independence and sovereignty alone without Russia? Not able. And in difficult times he did not refuse. Today they will howl:" Putin has arrived, he's scaring someone. as a person close to Belarus," Lukashenka said. According to him, the theses about the absorption of Belarus by Russia are thrown by the West to the Belarusian oppositionists who fled there. "What to talk about? About the takeover. Today they start talking to us squeaky from abroad," the Belarusian president said. "But the main thing is the result. We turned to Vladimir Vladimirovich [Putin], members of his delegation on a number of issues that are of vital importance to us," Lukashenka said. "Russia will manage without us, but we can't do without it," Lukashenka stated
6:43 PM
“If someone thinks to tear us apart today, to drive a wedge, it will not work. In 2020, it was not he (Putin) who attacked me along the perimeter, not Russia. Russia extended its hand to us, but us from there (from the West) gouged. They wanted to deprive us of both independence and sovereignty at the same time. "
6:44 PM
Belarus is essentially a Russian puppet, but the relationship is actually more complex
6:44 PM
And I don't say this because of what Lukashenka says. I don't give a fuck what he says
6:44 PM
but what he does
6:45 PM
shows that Belarus is able to make its own decisions in some areas despite Russian pressure
6:46 PM
Their relative lack of involvement in the Russian "special military operation" is an example. The rumor is that Putin is trying to force Lukashenka into it, but he doesn't really want to get involved
6:47 PM
Likewise, Kazakhstan is a heavily Russian-influenced nation, a CSTO and CIS member, which has been pretty bold in resisting Russia and its invasion so far

Russia crossed the line for the US. They actively targeted civilians with indirect weapons. Yes we'll blow up a house that has kids in it to get a terrorist (which is fucked), but lobbing artillery and missiles at civilian centers of population is something we don't do (anymore). It's kinda hypocritical... since you know Fat Man and Little Boy... and Dresden... but still we don't do that anymore. Would we? Probably... but we haven't been forced into that position to make that choice recently.

There is evidence to suggest they would have conditionally surrendered if we invaded or even before. I know the argument, and I also know some part of the atrocities the Japanese did. I also know how absolutely horrific a conditional surrender would have been for the Chinese.
12:19 AM
There are plenty of arguments on both sides of dropping those bombs. I'm just saying our hands are bloody from mass targeting of civilian populations... and that's a factor to consider.
12:22 AM
So as of today, targeting civilians with indescriminate weapons is over the line for US... infrastructure and military targets in Russia are fair game in war... and Russia started it. I just expected the US to hand over any Sig/ELint to Ukraine including target coordinates and movements. They wouldn't hand over humint... but Signal and Electronic intelligence won't compromise much if anything if it were given freely to Ukraine.

Power armor would be awesome and probably a lot more feasible than a mech.
A billion dollars for one vs 100 million for a company... with man portable weapons capable of doing all the damage needed even to armor just mount the Javlin to the shoulder. 4 Infantry to 1 Power armor in a fire team - Pilot, loader, spotter, mechanic/medic. Two variants, Anti-Armor, Anti-Air. Anti-Armor would have a Javelin and a minigun Anti-Air has a quad mount stinger and 20mm autocannon with HE rounds. Probably 1 Anti-Air to every 3 Anti-Armor per squad.

Small and maneuverable enough to never really have to worry about being a target of a manpad themselves. And armored beyond L4. Only tech needed is better battery power density. (edited)

I reluctantly agree with you. Because... Damn I'd love to pilot one. But... power armor on the other hand is just a few years away.

Yeah actually some acquaintances of mine were on the story dev team for that. One in particular was the one who was outed as a sex pest and rapist. That caused some rifts in the old friend group... lost quite a few that week as half of them defended his sorry ass.

No worries. It's a good game, and the shithead quit rather than force the developer to fire him. And it was good to see the true colors of people I thought of as friends come out. Dude rubbed me the wrong way when we were in close proximity at parties and such, just didn't know really why, till the accusations started coming in. Then it all made sense. That dude was just one example of many over my life which taught me how to know who the predators are.

I have something similar, I can sort of just tell when someone is bad news. It isn’t necessarily an on sight sort of thing, but it doesn’t take long. Being in high school and all, there are a lot of people who are typically trouble. I have been wrong before, though, so I learned to just listen to it quietly.

Psychopathic brain development (or lack of development in the case of psychopaths) has been with hominids since as long as we can figure, but at least several million years. So it only stands to reason that hominids would develop pathways necessary to protect themselves from psychopaths. Resulting in "an uneasy feeling", "something just ain't right about him/her", "I can't put my finger on it, they seem like a nice enough person, but something is just off about them". Culture however teaches us (or tries to) that everyone is basically good and so we should give them a chance. And for 92-97% of the population that's true. So we ignore that gut reaction, till it bites us in the ass. At which point, we either die... because psychopaths be like that... or we survive but traumatized enough to start listening to our gut.

I argue it goes a bit beyond that and more like some people, ironically using a mixture of their ability to empathize and almost instinctual picking up...I suppose some form of microaggression or red flags. Like I describe it akin to a subconsciously comparing and contrasting normal people and those with mean harm. Human brains more powerful then people think. And we absorb more info then we realize

Oh I don't doubt there are variances like that, some people are flat out oblivious to micro-expressions of any kind, while some (particularly trauma survivors) are highly attuned to them. And yeah it all goes into a pot of things which make people more or less capable of recognizing someone as dangerous.

I'm just stating that psychopathy is genetically linked, and we've got enough evidence to suggest it occurred in our predecessor species. And since it creates one of the greatest threats to human reproduction and survival, I wouldn't doubt that we have genetic pathways specifically to respond to it.

Hell, assuming hypercaptialiatic societies breed more psychopathic tendencies, it's very possible that those who can pick up their red flags with no warning might be a evolutionary "counterweight" so to speak. I'm no geneticist tho

Imperialist, monarchist, and capitalist social structures haven't been around long enough to do too much damage yet. But it is VERY true that capitalism has created a bias towards psychopathy... and that is likely increasing the rate of prevalence of it in humanity.

Someday I'll tell you a story of a friend of mine who owned the largest office furniture installation company in the country. He's not a psychopath, but he was a trauma survivor... but the longer he went working through his trauma, the more aware of the psychopaths he had to deal with in corporate america he became. I met him after he gave up the business so he wouldn't have to deal with those psychopaths any more and "become one of them" in his words.

For those who don't know, Teddy Boy Greg is infamous in the punk and hardcore scenes for being a completely bonkers racist guy. Very very briefly identified as a SHARP before he decided to start wearing Skrewdriver shirts. He got into rockabilly, grew his hair back out, got training as a barber and started a business in LA. Eventually he couldn't take the fact that everybody absolutely despised him in the US and emigrated to Russia sometime around 2018 I think. I'd link to his instagrams because they keep getting banned, but two past instas he had were @nuketheus88 and @thenewstalin. (edited)

Mom took a school teacher gig at the black school there so she could get them books/supplies that were being withheld. She was offered it when she got between a Deputy and an older black woman when he started harassing her for being in the wrong part of the lunch counter. She looked him dead in the eyes and said, "You will stop harassing this woman, she's eating her lunch, and you ought to be ashamed of yourself." I know the look she gave... it was the same one she used on me. This was after her stint as a DJ in NYC where she used her show to coordinate protests.

Not necessarily. In my state, it’s mainly LPNs who work in nursing homes; which only requires a year of community college. They can’t get hired in hospitals, because it’s the standard that they require a 4 year BSN. That’s why the nursing homes (and prisons) are staffed by primarily poorer people and immigrants. They can’t afford the higher education needed to work in a hospital

Well "static" in that there's an actual front that can be defined. There wasn't really an order of battle for the Ba'athist insurgents or troop formations or determined positions or something like that. Stuff was happening all over the goddamn place and there was very little way to know what was going to happen and where it would happen, so you had to have stuff deployed everywhere at once.

I mean the thing is the US has been I guess "lucky" enough that in recent times the groups they've gone into VERY questionably justified conflicts with aren't exactly the nicest people out there. Saddam was a shithead and obviously the Taliban aren't good guys, which puts people who oppose those wars in an uncomfortable position. Communists and other leftists unfortunately had the tendency to just say "fuck it" and be like "Why yes I do support Saddam Hussein."

In July 2022, a petition in Ukraine asking for the legalisation of same-sex marriage reached over 28,000 signatures, and all petitions in Ukraine that reach over 20,000 signatures automatically start the consideration of the President of Ukraine.[19] On 2 August 2022, in response to the petition, Zelenskyy asked the Government of Ukraine to consider legalising same-sex marriage, while also stating that there could be no action as long as the Russo-Ukrainian war continues, as the constitution cannot be changed in wartime,[20] but that there remains a possibility of clarification of same-sex unions by the Constitutional Court of Ukraine or for legalization of same-sex partnerships.[21] The war has spurred efforts to legalize same-sex marriage to ensure gay soldiers' partners are given the same rights and privileges afforded to those in legally recognised marriages, with activists pointing to the service of LGBT military personnel as having shifted attitudes towards LGBT people.[22][23]

Most of the Azov guys are dead at this point. I'm a bit more worried about Right Sector. I don't think they'll be too big of a problem after the war unless Ukraine loses. The thing is the reason why those far right groups got any traction was because the liberal democratic government did such a piss poor job of holding the Russians off in Crimea and in the Donbass. That made it seem like Democracy could not stand against Russia's imperialism, so authoritarianism was required in response. If the Ukrainians manage to win, it will prove that line of thinking wrong, which means Azov and Right Sector will get less and less support.

21 people killed - including a child - in last night’s Russian strike on Dnipro, according to local authorities. 73 people injured, including 14 children. 35 people unaccounted for.

Yup... it's actually going to be really simple, but it could be done with a full skeletal structure if we had a 3D printer... I just visualized how that would work... with pathways printed in for control lines... then just dip it into a silicone mold.

A little late in life, and in the stage of capitalism to do something like that. Besides, I put it to use designing egalitarian collective living residences.
10:35 PM
I figure out how to support as many people as possible on as little property as possible, with as much sustainability as possible, and as cheaply as possible, and create the organizational structure to make it not self destruct due to personality conflicts.
10:36 PM
My best plan so far is 20 people with ~80% sustainability on 5 Acres for under 250k.

I believe what we've learned about hominid development over the past 9 million years to be a key in getting rid of the structures that have set us on a path of self destruction. But it's complicated by population density, but also made simpler by technology.

That's the TLDR version yes. 😉
10:42 PM
I also believe that anthropology's understanding on how culture evolves is more or less accurate. So the only way to really get people to buy into the TLDR version is to show them how to do it, and how it benefits them, by doing rather than telling.
10:43 PM
That's where tech really helps. Because you can broadcast the process and show it's struggles and successes with little to no money at all.
10:44 PM
My primary goal is to create a collective residence with the primary purpose of doing that. It would sorta end up half documentary and half mockumentary... we'd likely have to generate roleplay scenarios to show worst case examples of what people doing it might face.

Naw, the system is so corrupted that it literally isn't capable of being decorrupted from within. It has to be changed from the ground up... people choosing a new way and doing it... showing it to be better... and indeed defending it with violence if needed from those who jealously guard their corrupt system. I've got intimate knowledge of the foundation of the EZLN and, that was part luck, but also a whole lot of excellent planning, presentation, and execution. And they currently have the strongest growing health and education in all of Central America to prove to the world that it worked. (edited)

"and indeed defending it with violence if needed"
Avatar
Literally everything I work on involves people, innocent civilians, and if it's successful their survival will be tied directly to it. If someone threatens that structure, particularly out of a jealous need to protect a corrupt system... they endanger the survival of innocent people. And there are so many examples of that threat to survival being not just through legal action, but actual violence with mass murder as the end result. A system which systematically massacred millions (not counting deaths by small pox) of indigenous people for the profit of a handful of wealthy elite. Which enslaved and killed hundreds of millions of people again for the purpose of enriching a handful of elite. A system which has never even attempted to atone for those crimes because it sees no reason to do so. A system which leaves it's own citizens, who pay their taxes, without the basic needs which were supposed to be provided by the structure the taxes pay into. I could literally go on till I die listing examples of how fascist and violent the core system is, and even further on how a minority want to make it even more so, and months or years on how violent both groups have been towards people trying to exist in a manner that doesn't enrich the wealthy elite. We might not be in a war zone, but some parts of this country are really all but a war zone already. It's just that the military oppressing is wearing blue more often than tan or OD green.

On 18 April 2001, a car bomb exploded near the Centre for Peace and Tolerance in Pristina, the headquarters of the Yugoslav passport office in Kosovo, killing one civilian and wounding four others, including a woman who was left with serious injuries.[5] Yugoslav government official Aleksandar Petrović was later identified as the man killed in the bombing. The device used in the attack was filled with metal fragments.[6] According to the United Nations Interim Administration Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK) spokesperson Andrea Angeli, it contained around 10 kilograms (22 lb) of explosive. "For the future of Kosovo it could not be a more tragic incident," UNMIK police spokesperson Derek Chappell stated. "This is an attack against everything that people trying to build this country are working for."[5] The crime scene was quickly secured by UNMIK police and British KFOR personnel. UNMIK and KFOR soon discovered the detonator that had been used in the attack; Bartetzko's fingerprint was found to be on it.[7] Bartetzko was arrested several days after the bombing.[6] He was charged with murder, attempted murder and terrorism.[8] He was the first Westerner to be charged with murder in post-war Kosovo.[6]

All the fight we've seen/ been reading about his been in around the Donetsk region. But there is a fairly lengthy frontline from the dnipro to Donetsk that is pretty flat/ open that is great for tanks. That's where I was thinking, it is a very obvious vulnerability so no doubt Russia has noticed it. But reaching Azov would isolate all the forces in Crimea, especially with that bridge still being out. And would make that peninsula much easier to take.

It's origins in 2014 when Russia screwed with the Donbass and started that mess. It was a Volunteer battalion made up of far right individuals that were part of the reason why Mariopol started in Ukrainian hands when Russia invaded last year. From what I've found though, after it's integration into the national guard newer recruits weren't neo nazi and now they've effectively lost their initial far right origins (edited)

The reason such volunteer battalions were even needed at all was because thanks to Russia's puppet regime and a demon called corruption, the Ukrainian armed forces had to be entirely rebuilt from effectively scratch (edited)

I'm not sure the total number of deaths of their original membership, but I'm pretty sure very few left Mariupol alive. And even prior to that Ukraine reinforced them with regular draftees to the point that less than half their total number were original neo-nazis. They might exist in name now, but the battalion that was at the start is literally no more. There is even strong reason to believe that Ukraine deployed them to Mariupol specifically to get rid of their problem child.

It's certainly what I would have done in a position of military authority. They knew Mariupol would fall. It was the perfect place to send your most problematic troops.

To add from what I know on it On the internet you'll hear a lot about azov. They were only a few hundred individuals and most of them are dead now For political parties, the only real nazi one is Svoboda and while they had a minor influence in 2014, quickly fell out and they only have a few seats As for popular perception, figures like Bandera are fairly popular with the general public from what I know, which is probably the biggest problem Ukraine has, and might be a problem if someone tries to "cash grab on it" if that makes sense. So far though, we don't see much of a problem with that. And I would also add that Russia also aligns a number of known neo nazis in their ranks. Nazism in eastern Europe is a regular problem, not just a Ukrainian one Meanwhile you have anarchists fighting on Ukraines side, and even Russian anarchists (BOAK) have started a resistance campaign by blowing up ammunition and trains to help Ukraine and weaken the Russian government. I support these people personally. There's a Ukrainian hooligan group in Kyiv which is famous for being left wing and antiracist unlike all other hooligans. They have joined the army. On their own word "we need Russia to be gone before we can continue punching the nazis in the face". Which is the reality of war. Finland had the same thing during the winter war, where communists to nationalists (former white guards!) Alike fought together against the ussr, now know as the winter war spirit.

With that angle, it must have been friendly fire, unless he was looking at a strange angle when the bullet passed through if it came from straight ahead. And even then, a sniper shot most likely would have exited. A low caliber like a 9mm would make something similar to what he has.

This is either okay news or terrible news for Ukraine. Okay if it's a sign of Russia hastily trying to inflict damage on Ukraine before the tanks arrive. Terrible if Russia finally managed to get the conscription situation solved.

they’d be sending very poorly trained conscripts against battle-hardened soldiers

Their mobilization efforts have been fixed in around December and it helped them stabilize the frontlines after the Ukrainian offensives

As for the assaults we see currently, aside from the usual like bakhmut Marinka etc the Russian have attacked near vuhledar (southern donetsk oblast) and it's going awfully bad for them And in the kreminna direction but I don't see a lot of info there
12:54 PM
As floppunism said they are extremely poorly trained conscript, but mass alone makes it good enough for defensive operations. But as Perun said (check out his YT channel he is an actual war analyst, like its his job) it doesn't matter Wagner in particular use the prisonners they recruited with shit equipment to probe the Ukrainian defenses and force them to reveal their positions. Once they find a soft spot, the better units of Wagner will go for a push and usually perform much better. So they don't care if that means 70% of Wagner or more is dead at this point, the dead ones don't matter to them, they're just here for the meatgrinder

there's a reason the zaporizhian front has not moved yet

despite being the most vulnerable for either side

if either side could actually mass rush the other it would probably be a war-ending victory
3:00 PM
but neither sides have the capabilities for such losses in such flat, open terrain
3:01 PM
so instead they fight in urban warfare (bakhmut, central donetsk,...) and in forested area (northern donetsk/luhansk like lyman, kreminna, ...)

this is northern donetsk/luhansk

Meanwhile you can program an Arduino board to use GPS to guide a drone or missile. You just couldn't make two way communication between the operator and the drone. That's what starlink was being used to do... provide real time manual control over drones without relying on cell signal or radio both of which have limited range and are easily jammed. (edited)

The only reason why Transnistria exists is because the Bolsheviks tried to instigate an uprising in Romania in 1924 and it failed, so they created the Moldovan ASSR out of Transnistria and a decent chunk of Ukraine, but it was only 1/3rd Moldovan.

The Russian government coordinates an extensive network of camps where thousands of Ukrainian children have been held since the beginning of the full-scale war. 1/3
According to a report by the Conflict Observatory and the Yale Laboratory for the Humanities, the main objective of these institutions seems to be "political re-education". 2/3
The researchers collected information about at least 6,000 children from Ukraine aged 4 months to 17 years who were or are being held in Russian camps and other institutions after February 24, 2022. 3/3

These videos always make me so depressed when you see the utter horrors of the war. I think I said it here previously, but while I absolutely understand why a Ukrainian would not care or even cheer the death of any Russian soldier, I still see it as a tragedy. And then videos like these also show you how bad it is for the Ukrainians as well. War is utter hell, and I am so glad I got lucky enough to live in an area that has now not seen war for almost 80 years.
2:28 AM
Huge respect for those who still fight to defend their rights, their lives, their families, their homes. But it should only be in these situations, a last resort, for it is just so devastating. Hopefully our weapons will help Ukraine bring a quicker end to this madness brought by Russia, and even then after that we won't be safe from them trying it again some times later (which is the reason I'd support having Ukraine in NATO)

Just as the fash footsoldiers in the US and the rest of Europe are pawns/puppets of the people pushing the ideology, so too are the vast majority of the Russian soldiers. To stop those who are pushing the ideology, you have to identify them, and kill them. Otherwise they will keep using their pawns to kill others. Just as Russia won't stop till Putin and the oligarchs there are dead... Same holds true with elsewhere where fascism has it's grip.

maybe its a discussion for another channel, but at the end of the day, any group that is in power, when the source of their power is being shared to other people (in this case, with female/minorities empowerement movements) will have a reaction, like literally, being reactionnaries

I don't really agree that Putin "serves" a larger power. It's a collaboration. Putin does hold a lot of power by himself, and the long list of recently "windowed" oligarchs shows it. The fact that the army is pisscared of criticizing him as well, aside from fringer groups like Wagner, but even them rarely accuse putin, mostly the army itself then

MisterStompy 2/25/2023 8:57 PM
Russia is still using Soviet era doctrine, at least if the artillery means anything, which is kind of a problem because Soviet era doctrine relies on the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact. This stuff only works if you have the manpower and resources of the entire Soviet Union and Warsaw Pact. Russia doesn't have that. They don't even have a fraction of that. Too many people still think Russia = Entire Eastern Bloc but that hasn't been the case since like 1989.

Situation around Bakhmut is very tense as Russian troops are working towards an encirclement of the city

Meanwhile there are reports that the UA intelligence said they are planning an offensive in the south. It is weird to announce it, but they did the same when they announced an offensive in Kherson before decisively striking Russian troops in Izyum

Maybe they used a transliterated Russian name officially and then switched to the old Chinese names?
9:14 PM
At present, the Chinese-speaking area still generally refers to this city as Boli, and the map published by the People's Republic of China is marked as Khabarovsk (Boli). According to Article 17 of the "Regulations on Public Map Content Representation" issued by the State Bureau of Surveying and Mapping of China on May 9, 2003, the Chinese transliteration of the name "Khabarovsk" must be enclosed in the Chinese name "Boli" in the Chinese version of the map, except maps in Chinese Pinyin and foreign languages.

Russia made big advancements in other places, namely Kherson and Zaporizhzhia oblasts. Donbas had been well-fortified since 2014 and has been a core area of Ukrainian focus during the 2022 war as well

It's the best "investment" for ukraine to hold it as long as they can, because it's so well fortified the Russians take disproportionate losses for it If Ukraine retreated, defending west of bakhmut wouldn't give them such a good trade

Bakhmut being eventually being lost doesn't surprise me too much, since this had been the general direction of the Russian troops for over a year at this point. That said, it's still odd to see such resistance from Ukraine amd such a push from Russia. Unless the public intel we have so far is lacking, Bakhmut isn't a very strategically important city.

so its a bit more complicated
3:26 PM
holding bakhmut makes sense for ukraine, its an extremely fortified city, so the russians are taking disproportionnate losses when attacking it in another place, russia would for exemple lose fewer troops per ukrainian troops taken out
3:27 PM
it is a somewhat important road hub. It's not a lyman/kupiansk/izyum/sloviansk, but still a decent one
3:28 PM
3:28 PM
Finally, you can find Bakhmut in the middle of this elevation map
3:28 PM
west of bakhmut is a more hilly terrain, but after that, its downhill to sloviansk/kramatorsk
3:28 PM
and there is pretty much nothing on those hills
3:29 PM
so if ukraine loses bakhmut, there is a risk that russia is going to take a lot of terrain and approach S/K rapidly
3:29 PM
3:29 PM
I can zoom on this party, but you can see Popasna here on the east
3:29 PM
its in an elevated position
3:30 PM
when Russia took it in like, june or something, it allowed them to push North, and this forced Ukraine to abandon Severodonetsk/Lysychansk
3:30 PM
Finally, there is the political aspect, since Zelensky said S/L were the last cities that Ukraine would abandon
3:30 PM
hopefully you get the nuance about the importance of bakhmut
3:31 PM
that said, yeah i'm worried as to why they are holding it for so long, its getting very risky, unless they have an offensive planned like right the fuck now this seems dangerously unwise to stay

They never had a democratic government, especially not after the 1993 coup, and as such they would have been rotting the organisation from the inside had they been let in

Even if the US spammed economic help to avoid the utter disaster of Russia in the 90s (which is a big ass when its been your enemy for 50 years, and unlike Germany it's nor a country you are occupying), Yeltsin was already in power

The sidewinder series of missiles is remarkably easy to adapt, it probably can't take more than a week to jury rig a viable mechanism... the seeker does all the work, all the plane has to do is send an audio signal from the seeker to the pilot's headset, and the release system needs to receive signal from the weapons release button on the stick. Even if the voltages used are different that's a few hours with a soldering iron. And even if the mounting bracket is different that's just a few hours with a CNC machine per aircraft. A few test flights and modifications over a week or two and easy peasey. An air to air missile that can lock 120 degrees off the nose and fire at a head on aspect aircraft.

It would take considerable effort for any of those groups to organize, between the Tzars and USSR they are only recently starting to come together again. The Tzars and USSR both learned from the US's treatment of native tribes and "improved upon" the tactics. Sadly all of those tribes are distant cousins of native American people.

In the early days of the war, at least, there was a transportation issue because a lot of civilian foreign aid was being transported to Ukraine, but the vehicles they were arriving on were often empty on the way back away from Ukraine. Ukrposhta was doing a thing where they were funding/subsidizing cargo flights carrying aid to Ukraine with the postage costs of sending stuff out of Ukraine (mostly stuff sold via ecommerce)

The ISW says that the battle of bakhmut has culminated and that fighting won't stop, but go down. Russian troops control 40% of the city ATM. ISW and many other sources say Russian army is going to dial down in offensives to prepare for Ukrainian counter offensives and blunt them. Many sources say the Ukrainians offensives should start soon ish. Let's hope that the Ukrainians will be as effective as they were during the fall (liberation of the north and of Kherson), as this time russia is seemingly waiting for them and has more troops, albeit less experienced and worse equipped.

The things we should be devoting everything to is decentralizing, and automating food production in greenhouses, building housing that uses natural environment as a benefit rather than building them to spite the environment. Ideally in collective autonomous villages and getting as many of disenfranchised folks out of cities as fucking possible before white folk start seizing food shipments to those cities to starve them to death.

They never should have been allowed to retain their seat. The seat was for the USSR, not Russia. When the USSR fell, Russia should have been booted off the UNSC.

Also, consensus decision-making is wonderful... but when the people with that power have authority over more than just themselves... they will always (just as in democracy) use it for their own personal gain. US does it all the time in the UN and UNSC.

Idk about steamroll but I wouldn't mind if it did. This seems like an innocuous "leak" potentially doctored to be even less reliable. Closer to Ruski propaganda than our own intel but a mix. Pretty standard MO for them though. I think open conflict wouldn't be good for either side but I'm also sick of their neverending fake bullshit.

I think they can do the latter. Invading Crimea will be difficult, but it is doable, and I think they will be able to get to a position Russia will be forced to either give it up or be forced to wage a very costly defense. Ukraine has shown an incredible willingness to take and sustain heavy casualties, and I don’t doubt that with continued NATO support that they will overrun it eventually; Crimea is already severely understrengÞ garrison wise, and they are short on supplies. I think it’s likely they’d abandon their posts, or be unable to take a large scale assault sustained for a good while, and I think given the way things are currently going, Ukraine maybe able to threaten Russia proper shortly; combined, they maybe able to force russia to abandon it, and if they refuse to do so, they would be able to take it by storm, albeit at a heavy cost

Yes, they do. Mutiny could end up with the soldiers being to imprisoned or executed. Desertion could end up with execution if they are caught. Surrendering is the best option. Which is why Ukraine set up a Surrender Hotline.

Surrendering ends up with execution or jail as well

Better to desert or surrender, even with the risks, it's probably at this point a far lower chance of death than being send into a meat grinder by assholes looking for a smile from Putler.

The last big russian missile attack on Ukraine was on March 9th. That's more then a month ago. Before that we saw big russian missile attacks around every 1-2 weeks. There has also been very little Shahed drone activity during the last 2 weeks.

If you go off of Deep State's map though the lines have been pushed continously. Slowly but still. Could be a strategic withdrawal of assets for some expected surge.
1:30 PM
Ukraine was also planning and attempting a counter offensive, so imo this could be bait. Even if it's painfully slow Russians seem to have momentum where the front line is. It's a tough read on how to counter this because it's essentially a scaled up attempt at seige and attrition warfare.
1:34 PM
If you want my gut feeling fringe theory though I think it could be Russia is saving any major push to Kyiv for a Chinese attempt on Taiwan. Neither country I think can succeed individually, but together and with potentially Iran on Israel they might be able.
1:37 PM
This would be nearly apocalyptic but if the goal is to undermine Western hegemony I believe it would succeed and be one of the only ways it could be accomplished. It still avoids open, direct conflict with the US too which may actually prevent the entire world from ending in the process.

China cannot possibly attempt a Taiwan landing with any hope other than to die. They cannot transport even a third of the troops needed for an initial invasion force, let alone increase that number by 10x to hold it before a US MEU is there to teach them a thing or two. And even if they did pull off landing, and defend against a counter strike. Their transport ships would be dead inside of 12 hours trying to return to the mainland to pick up more troops and supplies. As long as China is posturing towards Taiwan, you know they know they cannot take it.

If they go a six months without whipping their dick out over Taiwan... then you know an invasion is coming.

Additionally, consider how it’s effectively impossible to have a successful opposed amphibious landing in this day and age with peer technology. D-day was almost a catastrophe for the allies and that was with massive bombardment and bombing against the sea fortifications; imagine trying something similar against modern AA and AT technology.

SEAD against Taiwan would require extensive humint and real time feeding of target positioning to the SEAD strikes. Taiwan uses the latest Patriot batteries, which reposition with overlapping coverage while they do so at random intervals to random locations, there is no point where two day old data would be useful to Chinese SEAD strikes. And even then they'd have to dedicate their hypersonic missiles to SEAD in order to have a chance to get through the Patriot defenses. There are also Harpoon batteries on the island, constant radar coverage of the straight, SOSUS coverage of the straight. The moment a SEAD strike fires (presumably the transports would be enroute already) 2-8 Harpoons would be launched at every ship that left China without an AIS signature... or with one that was registered to China's PLAN. Harpoons aren't guided by anyone but themselves... so even if the SEAD were successful the missiles will still get about a 20-30% kill ratio. Any one harpoon getting through immediately either sinks the ship or at least forces it to return to China for repairs. Then Fighters Fighter/Bombers and AWACS are launched. Every USN warship in Japan is scrambled. The 6-10 SSNs in the Taiwan Straight and Yellow Sea go unrestricted sub-surface warfare mode... and whatever MEU not engaged elsewhere is nearest is recalled to Taiwan. China loses half or more of its transport capacity (which isn't enough at full strength to invade Taiwan). Now China could and probably would also launch a full scale J-20 Alpha Strike package to follow the SEAD mission... but while the air battle might be relatively close fought (except the pilots in China only ever do ACM training in DCS), they've NEVER faced off against the US's Electronic Warfare capability preventing them from locking on outside of 20-50 nautical miles, while we'll be allowed to shoot around 80-100 miles.

We maintain a military capable of engaging in a three front war with the three most powerful nations on earth at any given time. That's our military doctrine. Russia doesn't even count as one.
6:57 PM
Even considering the manpower Russia has dedicated to Ukraine, a single MEU with SOP support and air superiority would end the invasion in a month. This is factoring in their currently depleted forces and lack of skilled fighters or modern equipment in use. (edited)
6:59 PM
And we really only need to put half the F-35s available in Europe to the task to gain air superiority... they can't be seen on radar outside of 20 miles, have missiles that can reach out and touch someone from 120miles and our AWACS capacity can see even the SU-57 at 200 miles.
7:00 PM
We'd bring an Integrated Air Defense System package with us, that will never (or nearly never) result in friendly fire. That would put an end to any missile Russia fires on Ukraine.
7:02 PM
We would then probably reinforce with the US Army somewhere in that month.
7:03 PM
And not once would we use a Pacific asset to do so, or probably even mobilize any more assets than normal beyond the Army reinforcements.
7:04 PM
We could probably fight 4 Ukraine wars and still not dip into the Pacific region assets.
7:07 PM
Had we responded to the invasion last year... it would have taken a lot more. But right now... nope... Russia would be a speedbump for us. Doing so however would absolutely guarantee Putin uses tactical nukes. Which is why we won't put active duty US military on the ground there.

They've been training Ukrainian pilots on them since before the war started. Some of the earliest ones probably need current time, but yeah they've been down outside Phoenix flying them for years.

They also work with AF AWACS controllers during that training to familiarize themselves with it. So you can bet those AF guys flying over the ocean are gonna be their intercept and overwatch controllers.

It’s bad, but pretty insignificant in the scheme of things; Bahkmut is pretty meaningless in the actual scale of the war, but it was a great point for Ukrainian forces to dig in and bleed the Russians dry, and the Russians have made it into something they can’t abandon and they need to take to not look weak, while they can claim a victory, even if it’s not actually meaningful. It’s bad for the Defense of the town, but completely irrelevant for Ukraine as whole

There is no real victory for Russia. No matter if they conquer Ukraine, parts of it, or are entirely kicked out, the country will continue to suffer. Putin's physical health is failing, many of his lieutenants have been killed since the war started, and tens of thousands of Russians are dead. Their economy is in shambles, and continuing the war and continuing to commit war crimes without hiding them will only cause more needless suffering.

He's got friends in similar sorts of desperate power struggles as well. It's a race to the bottom to see who will collapse first: East or West. East is poised to do it first I think unless they can pull some wild ass stunts.

I think there's about a 50/50 chance either way rn. As it stands Russia could sit on Crimea and Donbas, but Ukraine will never let up. Unless RU decisively strikes Ukraine it can't happen, and RU can't make said strike without provoking international response. Unless this entire thing was a veritable suicide mission for nothing but national embarrassment I think there is another play being made here. All our enemies are 1 major first initiative strike away from realizing their goals long-term, it's just a matter if they have the cooperation and political will to attempt international dominance.

Assuming this was the doing of Ukraine, partisans or a Western country, they just blew any chance at using drones on Putin

Although killing Putin would have disastrous consequences, so perhaps that wasn't the plan at all and shouldn't be the plan

If this was more of a propaganda or psychological operation, it will likely only serve to work against Ukrainian interests by giving Russians something more tangible to rally around

Sadly the same can't be said about many MLs, but at least the anarchists are doing good on this one.
My name is Dmitry Petrov, and if you read these lines, then most likely I died fighting against the Putin’s invasion of #Ukraine. I am a member of the Combat Organization of Anarcho-Communists (BOAK), a nd I will still remain this after my death. (1/9)

I've been a bit busy so I didn't post it before, but how many of you heard of Dmitry Petrov, an anarchist comrade who died fighting against Russia in Ukraine? https://twitter.com/Antifa_Entsy/status/1651670212884721665 A lot of anarchists are on the ground in Ukraine fighting against Russia, and even doing resistance inside Russia. Sadly the same can't be said about many MLs, but at least the anarchists are doing good on this one.
The spirit of anarchism in Ukraine still lives on

I recommend the interviews made by "Popular front", and for those who need a bit more context about the history of anarchism and it's roots in Ukrainian culture, "ravignon" made a pretty good video about it

Popular Front is pretty good, I watched their documentaries on it. I'm also familiar with Ukraine's anarchist history, heck I watched the low-budget TV drama they made about Mahkno (which devolved into being Mahkno-and-friends).

The wait is over — after almost a year of refusals and hesitation, Western-provided MIM-104 Patriot air defense systems have finally arrived and become operational in Ukraine. On April 21 and 26, Ukraine’s Air Force confirmed the full employment of two Patriot batteries. As Ukraine’s own Soviet-era air defense

If Russia has any hypersonic missiles to shoot, those will get through that system... but it'll do a fine job on anything else they throw. I don't believe the claim that they took out that hypersonic missile. (edited)

They probably haven’t even sent enough tanks to outfit a single brigade, so I’m willing to bet they’re just concentrated for a big and hard push in some area.
8:30 PM
So with how rare they are in the first place and their strategic and tactical importance, it’s unlikely they’d be seen the first day

I also don’t believe this is it but for different reasons; mainly because it seems more like an exploitation than an actual attack.

They don't have rail cars or truck trailers capable of moving the Abrams yet. Those have to be sent with the Abrams or separately first.

Back to the semantic battle. I would argue that any fascist state which doesn't make some minor concessions, particularly in regards to incredibly ineffective methods of change, is infant level fascism and damned to fail. If your definition of fascism hasn't evolved since 1928, but the fascists have modified their playbooks many times since then... well guess who's damned to fail now.

The Carnation Revolution (Portuguese: Revolução dos Cravos), also known as the 25 April (Portuguese: 25 de Abril), was a military coup by left-leaning military officers that overthrew the authoritarian Estado Novo regime on 25 April 1974 in Lisbon, producing major social, economic, territorial, demographic, and political changes in Portugal and ...

Okay, last statement here, but what I'm getting at is "America is already fascist" is the same fucking rhetoric that the KDP used in the 20's and 30's for the Weimar republic. They said that the Weimar Republic was fascist because it put down the Sparticist uprising so they barely offered any opposition to the Nazis who were actual fascists.

Easy enough to find what appears to be the Twitter account of the lady who carried out an antisemitic attack on a synagogue near Detroit, intending to blame Azov... The follows are a predictable group who tend to join left and right in pro-Kremlin positions.

on one side you have an obviously right-wing, militaristic, authoritarian nation who wants to straight up annex its neighbour on the other side you have an utterly flawed liberal democracy. FLAWED. IT IS MENTIONNED. and as such to me it's pretty obvious why russia's defeat is the immediate priority. The america of 1945 or the Ukraine of today are definetly not states to be super proud of, but when it comes to punching the closest thing we had to nazi germany in a while, i'd still say it's acceptable to side with them

Note no one is actually disagreeing with you. But this is one of those things you don't tempt fate on by speaking it into existence. Even if you don't believe in fate, or superstition, it's better to err on the side of caution when it comes to this sort of stuff.

I heard it was a helicopter and six cars at a checkpoint. I don’t think it’s too big, and certainly won’t have any major impact. The only case in which it would is if Russia responds with a large force pushing back against them, which would limit their ability to fight in Ukraine. RVC is also far-Right.

Keep in mind the Freedom of Russia legion has always been integrated into the Ukrainian military proper, while the RVC were always more or less just treated as cannon fodder. The RVC ironically is made up of guys who were at one point members of state sanctioned groups such as the Russian Imperial Legion. This is blowback but for the FSB.

The RVC also notably refuses to use the White Blue White flag of the wider Russian opposition movement. They don't like the democratic ideals the symbol tends to represent.

Notably, almost every vehicle seen abandoned in this engagement a few days ago suffered a mobility kill alone. The crews almost certainly survived and evacuated. At this point, the goal should be refitting said crews as quickly as possible and sending them back out.

Which one is more important?
both
5:48 AM
5:48 AM
i did this quick map to have some ideas of their roads of advance
5:48 AM
the 2nd pair of arrows is where they lost all those leos
5:48 AM
the third pair is where they are currently making good progress (theyre much further south than that now)
5:49 AM
and circled in red are some points of interest, like road and train hubs
5:49 AM
the units involved are nicknamed "the nine" as they are part of the 9 brigades trained in the west and fitted with western equipment
5:50 AM
a theory I read about why they lost so much near orikhiv is because they expected to take heavy losses there so they are using more survivable western equipment so that the crew survive, and inded the bradley POV video show most of them seemed to have made it out alive
5:50 AM
if those had been T-72 they would have just died straight away and the western training would have been in vain
5:51 AM
honestly we could pin these websites: the former is a list of russian fortifications as mapped from satellite imagery, the second one are geolocation of footage you see on twitter and telegram
5:56 AM
and these arrows are pretty much what I think their axis of advance are, and you can see on the orikhiv axis they are facing a very heavily fortified position, but its along the highway so its worth to try. On the velyka axis (second image) they have two main roads to reach the highway, but their current position (red circle) is still north of the main fortification lines. It can be expected that the russians will send reinforcement to this area if ukrainian advances continue. According to western intel and both armies, neither side has committed reserves yet According to the Institute for the Study of War (ISW), the Russians are uncharacteristically according exactly to their doctrine and showing, for once, some competence
5:56 AM
I think this should be a good overview of the current offensive. Note on the first screen I should show that the ukrainians are also advance south rather than eastwards (they do both apparently), since they lost their leos north of robotyne
5:56 AM
the "leo 2" i wrote is the first batch they lost a few days ago
5:57 AM
5:57 AM
and this is an update view of geoconfirmed, you can very easily see their axis of advances

In all fairness, Pride Parades are capitalist monuments now. What was once an all out brawl against cops who were routinely oppressing them, and then strong personal statements, is now a corporate sponsored advertising event. Corporations rolled in as soon as their executives realized that there was massive money to be made from the overwhelmingly white, highly educated, tech connected LGBTQIA community. This was true a decade before 2014 or more, with many people in the Gay Leather community being actively excluded from the phenomenon they themselves were part of creating. Because Gay Leather provided bad optics for the Pride events... we were/are seen as deviants even among the mainstream LGBTQIA community. There are some cities where we're welcomed, largely because we're the largest out queer voices in the whole of the community. But MANY LGBTQIA people shunned us the moment they saw marriage equality was in striking distance. I don't think this guy knows anything about that... I think this guy was a bad choice for an interview for this subject... he's not an ideological leader... he's a doer... he leads because he has to because that's what's needed right now. If someone gained his respect had a different ideology but worked towards the same goals (destroying the Russian state)... he wouldn't give a fuck about the person's ideology, or who they fucked... eventually he'd probably mold his own ideology to better match the person he respects. He's ignorant, but he also knows he is to a large degree. He wants one thing, permanent freedom from russian violence. And as far as that goes... he knows exactly why it's necessary, and how it came to be necessary. Interestingly enough he explicitly spoke about the indigenous people of Russia (particularly of Siberia), and made the point that Russian state (controlled by Rus heredity) fears becoming the minority to them. He's fighting against people who are exactly like white supremacists here.

Realistically the gentrification is the primary issue. Occasionally there are really cool things that come from it. For example Dallas has a sliding scale medical clinic which serves the LGBTQIA community and allows people to get drugs without going through mainstream pharmacies... particularly hormones. And generally can be trusted to maintain confidentiality far better than other medical systems.

Prigozhin met with Putin a few days ago. Prigozhin wants Gerasimov & Shoigu out. Prigozhin stated this is not a coup. Prigozhin is staging a non-violent seizure of partial military power to achieve his goal of restructuring MOD. This has always been the most likely reality.

The power plant there is much more modern than the one at Chernobyl. It's impossible for modern power plants to melt down in the matter that the old Soviet one did, however it would still be devastating to Ukrainians. Poland and the UK have flat out stated that if ANY radiation reaches their borders they're going in whether the rest of NATO wants to or not. https://www.kyivpost.com/post/19034
If the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant is blown up, the official advice to Kyiv residents is not to panic and wait for instructions. Kyiv embassies and NGOs don’t seem worried.
4:22 PM
This would be nowhere near a detonation from a nuclear weapon, or even an old atomic bomb, it would be more like a "dirty bomb", ie a regular bomb that scatters radiation.
4:25 PM
Now if radiation reaches Finland (which it very likely might, much more likely to reach them than Kyiv), Finland will probably declare article 5. If article 5 is declared that's it for Russia. They have less than a few weeks at most before they get utterly buttfucked by an expeditionary force.

By this I mean Russian forces in Ukraine, not Russia proper. It will be like Desert Storm where we booted Saddam out of Kuwait but didn't invade Iraq proper until years later.
4:28 PM
Keep in mind another possibility is that the Russians just kinda trash the plant but don't cause enough damage to spread radiation. Most of this is pettiness because they know they can't hold onto the territory they have, so they want to flip the chessboard and go home.

Personally I just think it's hilarious how the discourse around Japanese war crimes changed so dramatically after his death. Before Shinzo Abe got merced tankies tended to downplay Japanese atrocities in WW2 as not as bad as the Nazis or they tried to say America forced them to do them, this is because America bad and since America beat Japan that means Japan not as bad as America says. It was only after Abe got shot that they talked about the real shit.

To be fair, the topic of Japanese War crimes been brewing for awhile, even before Abe. It's just Japan has a huge thing on social uniformity that it does make it hard to tackle serious issues. That said, I do think Abe pissed off a good chunk of the Japanese population before he left office. If you a pay attention to Japanese media, a lot of it became more critical of Abe and his policies, especially a couple years in.

That does surprise me that tankies didn't focus on Japanese war crimes before. I'd figure the tankies would want to bash on Japan since Japan is aligned with America, plus the Japanese atrocities were largely against China which is a country they support.

The idea that they were inferior models came from the presence of a few export versions, but those were the minority, most for the vehicles were surplus ones or the higher end soviet models, with the export versions being bought as a basis to build their own version, the “Lion of Babylon” tank, which was to be produced on Czech machinery, but because of Iraq’s limited heavy industry ability, they realized the simpler export ones would be easier for them to produce. However, they never made more than a couple pre-production vehicles, and only had a few export pattern t72, and their most common tanks were the T55 and T62, along with the Czech and Polish T72s, with French AMX-13 and soviet T-72As filling in

Russia recruited operatives online to target weapons crossing Poland Russian spy agencies built a network of amateurs for operations including sabotage, assassination and arson — plots disrupted by Polish authorities WARSAW — The cryptic job listings began appearing online early this year. The tasks were menial — posting fliers or hanging signs in public spaces — and the pay meager. But for a handful of refugees from eastern Ukraine, the promise of quick cash was too good to pass up. Respondents soon realized there was a catch: The jobs involved distributing pro-Russian propaganda on behalf of an anonymous employer. For those willing to complete the assignments anyway, the work then took a more ominous turn. Within weeks, recruits were tasked with scouting Polish seaports, placing cameras along railways and hiding tracking devices in military cargo, according to Polish investigators. Then, in March, came startling new orders to derail trains carrying weapons to Ukraine. Polish authorities now believe that the mysterious employer was Russia’s military intelligence agency, the GRU, and that the foiled operation posed the most serious Russian threat on NATO soil since Moscow launched its invasion of Ukraine last year. Russia’s objective was to disrupt a weapons pipeline through Poland that accounts for more than 80 percent of the military hardware delivered to Ukraine, a massive flow that has altered the course of the war and that Russia has seemed helpless to interdict, according to Polish and Western security officials.

Russia recruited operatives online to target weapons crossing Poland Russian spy agencies built a network of amateurs for operations including sabotage, assassination and arson — plots disrupted by Polish authorities WARSAW — The cryptic job listings began appearing online early this year. The tasks were menial — posting fliers or hanging signs in public spaces — and the pay meager. But for a handful of refugees from eastern Ukraine, the promise of quick cash was too good to pass up. Respondents soon realized there was a catch: The jobs involved distributing pro-Russian propaganda on behalf of an anonymous employer. For those willing to complete the assignments anyway, the work then took a more ominous turn. Within weeks, recruits were tasked with scouting Polish seaports, placing cameras along railways and hiding tracking devices in military cargo, according to Polish investigators. Then, in March, came startling new orders to derail trains carrying weapons to Ukraine. Polish authorities now believe that the mysterious employer was Russia’s military intelligence agency, the GRU, and that the foiled operation posed the most serious Russian threat on NATO soil since Moscow launched its invasion of Ukraine last year. Russia’s objective was to disrupt a weapons pipeline through Poland that accounts for more than 80 percent of the military hardware delivered to Ukraine, a massive flow that has altered the course of the war and that Russia has seemed helpless to interdict, according to Polish and Western security officials.

I don't think so. It's still more in the "international terrorism" territory rather that the "act of war" one.

That is very true. Prigozhin was a scumbag. A piece of shit. A waste of life. The list of names goes on and on. While it is true that bad things are sure to come, it’s always important to remember the good things: That’s one (10, really, considering who was on the plane) less asshole the world needs to worry about.

Not every genocidal ethnonationalist is a "Nazi". Again, my favorite example is some of the gangs of far right skinheads in Poland.

He says he has no reason not to believe this. "Egor, hi. I'd like to tell you about Klishchiivka and Andriivka. I was just evacuated from there yesterday. I'd like to tell you about our command. A tank's been kicking us out for 24 hours. Yesterday, at about 3 a.m., it got mad that we were holding on till the end and started to demolish the hut. I was concussed as well as two of my fellow soldiers. I don't know how, by some miracle, we survived. We were hit with everything from shrapnel ammunition to cluster munitions. We asked for artillery support. We were told there were no shells. How were we supposed to hold it? The tank spent three ammunitions on us. For 3 men. And ours supposedly ran out of shells. We were f*king crazy about that, sht. And now they're throwing sticks at special forces. We stayed until the end. Akhmat left the day before yesterday. There's 800 refuseniks and deserters in the forest belt. The 42nd Division left yesterday. We stayed with three squads until the end, until the advance started. We lost two of our guys on the way out". >> #OSINT #UkraineRussiaWar️ #UkraineWar #Ukraine #Counteroffensive #PutinIsNotRussia

Honestly many of those ppl probably don't even know Ukraine exists

Shouldn't be happening, completely needless. And it could stop tomorrow. But until young men from Moscow start coming home in boxes and bags (or not at all) then it's not gonna stop.

Slightly less heartbreaking imo considering some of these men are being forcibly drafted by their own mothers and wives which tbh is showing not even the fuckery is JUST Moscow imo. Still fucked but at the same time, this seems to a unfortunate trend of Russian history

Depends on by what definition of average Russian you mean

Some Russians I do genuinely feel bad for. Most Muscovites I have no sympathy for.

Russia deserves better. The last thing we want is a fractured and unstable Russia imo. Considering the nuclear weapons and all. Russia OUGHT to be able to participate normally in the global society but Putin, the oligarchs, and great deal of regular Russians don't want that to be the case

To be brutally honest, Russia fracturing on some level of ethnic lines might work. Along with a REALLY fucking through Marshall plan 2.0. Russia's rot runs deep and needs to be purged before they can even THINK of interacting with international politics again

In that meaning of fractured i agree completely.
1:14 AM
If that would result in a better version of Russia when all is said and done I'd be for it.
1:15 AM
All I know for sure is that the Russians must be sent home from Ukraine, I think it's gonna be real hard to have a lasting genuine peace that involves Russia getting to keep parts of Ukraine.

I argue he deserves a kick from every single Russian who lost a family member because of his wars, every minority whose families have been destroyed, every Ukrainian, and every person from the other countries Putin has interefered in and brought war to.

I wrote to President Biden with my colleagues and urged him to provide Ukraine with the missiles its military needs to win. Not doing so will only prolong the war and cost lives.

He's still horny about deploying ordinance against defenseless people, but realized it looks a lot better when you do that to marauding Russians instead of teenagers out protesting in Georgia.
