#Russia fail

[actualadvocacybruh]

The Ukrainians continue to be funny in the midst of a war ….

During their special military operation into the Kursk Oblast they are using local stores and gas stations for topping up on supplies and then leaving ONLINE REVIEWS

So you got some Ukrainian tankers buying gas, food and then leaving a positive review on yelp for your shop

We are also seeing them maintain discipline and not abusing civilians or targeting civilian structures so contrary to Russian and Israeli belief you can actually fight a war without doing a genocide against local populations (who knew that was an option)

Plenty of third party footage of relief supplies being sent out to locals in need

Thousands of conscripts have been captured abandoned by their officers with orders to “fight to the last man” allegedly … proving that the fascists don’t even care about their own soldiers enough to evac them with the officers and police forces

We have confirmed capture of at least TWO T90 tanks as well as shoot downs of even more helicopters

Haven’t seen this level of incompetence since the first days of the war

Also it's fucked up to yell at members of marginalized communities for acting within the two party system and not burning it all down when you don't have a plan. People are not your fucking sacrificial lambs to skewer and roast on a stick

[nopanamaman]

Going back to what you said before about the country that PAFL takes place in being the worst of the USSR and modern federal Russia mixed together, ¿in that case does that imply that it's kinda like a dystopia? ¿Or just a developing country?

Real life federal russia IS a dystopia lmao

Me and my friend vent to the flea market to find something interesting. I was hoping to find something for cosplay (maybe some real vintage props or details), but I found him! And brought him home. I like this doll on it’s own, but it also reminds me of Italy and Russia I drew long time ago (mostly Italy)

I wish I could do similar dolls of them, but I am afraid that I don’t have enough skills for this, but at least I have Pierrot now~

And I also bought myself some old pins (couldn’t resist buying one with borthoi, just because I kinda like them)

Quit fixating on Putin's nukes FFS.

Donald Trump and his MAGA minions are trying to imply that aid for Ukraine will lead to nuclear war. This is bullshit which is meant to bolster Putin's illegal war of aggression against a peaceful neighbor.

We hear MAGA Russophiles repeat this whenever new aid or new weapons systems are sent to Ukraine. The last time I checked, Putin hasn't nuked San Diego or Memphis. And we have crossed more of Putin's "red lines" than Trump has red neckties.

Even a delusional imperialist like Vladimir Putin understands that the ultimate outcome of any nuclear war would leave him as a shirtless congealed blob of radioactive fat. ⚛

With nuclear option unlikely, Putin struggles to defend his red lines

“There has been an overflow of nuclear threats,” said a Russian official speaking on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the subject. “There is already immunity to such statements, and they don’t frighten anyone.” A Russian academic with close ties to senior Russian diplomats agreed, calling the nuclear option “the least possible” of scenarios, “because it really would lead to dissatisfaction among Russia’s partners in the Global South and also because clearly, from a military point of view, it is not very effective.”

The United States and its NATO allies have no intention of giving nukes to Ukraine.

What we don't hear from scare-mongering MAGA zombies or Putin-friendly tankies is that the war in Ukraine would end immediately if the Russian invaders simply left Ukraine. Anybody who truly wants peace should be telling Russia to get the fuck back to their own country.

This week, Trump and former independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. wrote in an op-ed for the Hill that a decision to grant Ukraine permission to use Western long-range missiles “would put the world at greater risk of nuclear conflagration than at any time since the Cuban missile crisis” and called for direct negotiations with Moscow instead.

The only thing to "negotiate" with Moscow is a short ceasefire while Russia withdraws all its invading troops. The bottom line is that Russia has no business in Ukraine. The invasion is in violation of numerous international laws, treaties, and memoranda.

As for technology, Russia's means of using ICBMs in nuclear war just ain't what it used to be.

Latest Russian ICBM Test May Have Failed, Satellite Images Suggest

Russia is a third-rate power which happens to have nukes and a lot of empty territory that looks deceptively impressive on a map. Its ability to handle any atomic technology competently is questionable. Even during the glory days of the Soviet Union it gave the world its worst nuclear disaster at Chernobyl in 1986.

Chernobyl is in northern Ukraine which became independent in 1991. Ukrainians had done a good job of cleaning up much of the radioactive mess left by Moscow.

But Russia then temporarily occupied the area around Chernobyl in the early part of the invasion. Russian occupiers there did incredibly stupid things like dig military trenches in radioactive soil and loot radioactive materials to take home as souvenirs.

Russia has few serious competitors for the Darwin Awards this year. 🎖  ⚛️

What we should worry more about is another nuclear accident inside Russia caused by recklessness or incompetence. The sooner Ukraine is victorious, the more likely Russia will be able to tend to its own problems at home.

Serbians - “heh we shot down a stealth plane”

Russians - “heh we destroyed your Abraham tanks”

Americans - “cool cool … we have thousands in storage and we don’t care”

Serbians and Russians barely holding back their tears - “ LOL LOOK AT HOW MAD YOU AMERICANS ARE THAT WE DID A THING”

This is the real cope economy of the military enthusiasts world and it’s been booming recently

They don’t seem to understand that outside of some anime and military weirdos we don’t fetishize equipment like they do

I was just watching a documentary on the US space program, and after the Soviet Union beat the americans to getting the first successful manned space flight, with Yuri Gagarin doing a full orbit of Earth, a year later the US finally managed to get their own first kosmonaut into orbit, John Glenn, who took these photographs of the Earth.

Now is it just me or is there a beautiful Hammer and Sickle cloud floating over the coast of Africa, just to rub in the fact that the USA lost the space race?
