Zero empathy for the dead, it means nothing to him.
Rostov tonight
A Russian tank built in the 60's, with no ammo, main gun is disabled, turret can't rotate, driver can barely see, reactive armor blocks empty, turtled with armor to be drone proof - disabled by a drop-drone
The narrative is changing. The inevitable is here. Money is flooding away from him.
Twitter threads on the Russian regime using african and middle eastern migrants as human distractions, monetarily, physical and mental distractions for the EU to deal with.
Theres a Pulitzer book in one of those poor bastards too if they are allowed to survive the mulcher
Yeh, and instead of troops Russia is shipping hundreds of migrants up to the border instead to start a 'they took ur jerbs' itch among those so inclined to believe such nonsense.
It's senseless literally senseless. No normal human would allow or encourage the senseless butchery in Ukraine except a psychopath. The russian serfs are being led by a psychopath the bit will be paid through the nose.
It is very telling that there are no signs of the usual pro putin posters celebrating the capture of another village when such marginal gains of territory are matched by such massive losses of manpower and military equipment. They must know by now that even with the Ukrainians pulling back a bit in places they no longer have the resources to make any significant progress from a change in the front lines. It seems now that the kremlin script is just repetitive insincere calls for peace so putin can claim to have achieved something with his policies of genocide and terrorism.
God help the poor bastards next week when 155mm shells, drones and glide bombs rain down on them, a pyrrhic victory if there ever was one.
Russians still having small gains down South.
They're still telling the Russian people that 'NATA' is out to get them. But the real reason for the invasion is that Putin is jealous of Ukraine. Simple as…
That is in Russia it seems. What is going on ?Are they worried that some of the population is disaffected as well as not supporting the war of aggression?
Is it near the border with Ukraine?Do some of the population give secret assistance to Ukraine?
EDIT: I can see it is East of Moscow….
Russian nationalists marching in Yekaterinberg. Shouting "only Slavs and only victory". You can be arrested for holding a blank sheet of paper but marching as Rus Nazis is given reign.
Putin began his career promoting these groups in germany. He must be so proud it's gone full circle and his own land has become the home of Nazism nowadays.
russia has gutted it's bases along the Finland border to feed the meat mulcher in Ukraine. So much for the "NATO is our existential threat excuse"
The truth is relative to Putin only in so far as he can twist it to suit his agenda. It was only after Putin invaded, and maybe 6 mths afterwards that NATO was even mentioned by Ukraine, but what was sought by Ukraine was closer ties with the EU, which Putin vehemently disagreed with, and was the reason why he invaded. NATO being the fig leaf used to cover and justify the invasion. And its wearing pretty thin by now. Even amongst Russians, who find it hard to see any benefits from the so-called SMO, but lots of hardship, with no end in sight.
….
that says it all re his comments on A Tate
'Farage is very much a pub bore' Ben Wallace.
nuff said.
And this post gets right to the nub of the matter, something that many are ignoring or skating over.
Yep, it's somewhat telling that the poster is clearly dodging both questions.
He's getting the incels on side now, by saying nice things about the twart Andrew Tate. I expect they're all Putin fans anyway.

He used to appear regularly on Russia Today (when that was more acceptable) and is a friend and supporter of Donald Trump so his opinions are not a surprise, and he's held them a long time.
I doubt there is any "hidden agenda" (from him) bringing it to attention just before an election. I think these opinions are very unpopular in the UK. Hopefully it will damage his party. I can't see how it does them any good to have it dragged into the spotlight.
"Comrade" Corbyn's very odd foreign policy and his disturbing willingness to put faith in Russia/Putin (e.g. during Salisbury poisonings) destroyed chance of him ever becoming PM.
what was Nigel Farrage’s ‘ hidden agenda’ late night on the BBC1 news last night re the UKr/RU war/ SMO. He said that he told the EU - when an MP there- that there will be a war yet in UKr and caused by the west because of NATO making attempts to creep further towards Russia. Putin can now use this - unashamedly- as the reason for this SMO - further reinforcing what he has been saying all along. The interviewer never asked him if he agreed with current UK policy re UKR and if not then what would he propose
Every right thinking person backs peace. That 100% requires Putin and Russia to FO!
Well thats a non sequitor. If you agree that Ukrainians want to keep up the fight, and that its only unfortunate for the russians because those stubborn Ukrianians dont just give up and surrender, which you appear to accept, then giving out about armchair generals is meaningless.
So, going back to your original point that its a waste of life, would you agree that Russia should just go back to their own country and stop bothering others?
Just a yes or no would suffice please! An answer of "what about azov biolabs" is no real answer
recorders, they can start their own music class :)
Farages comments are depressing and will bring a smile to Putins face tonight.
On the day Russian hackers stole 300 million records belonging to British people from the NHS.
Unbelievable.
Ukrainians have two choices. (one) Fight Putin every step of the way until he's defeated. And make no mistake, he will be defeated, no matter how long it takes, because he has to be defeated.
(2) surrender now to Putin and allow him to take over Ukraine. And when he does that, sit back and watch the real slaughter and genocide take place. Putin wants to completely destroy every trace of Ukraine, its culture and its people. Like they never existed. And when he does that, there will be another "Ukraine" waiting to be de-nazified.
You want to talk about Ukraine sending people to the trenches? Go right ahead, but first talk about the hundreds of thousands of Russians Putin has sent, OK? and he's still doing it. Only not so publicly now, is he? Getting afraid that finally, he might have pushed Russians too far. So he quietly increases the "normal" intake of those for compulsory military service.
It's those dastardly Anglo-Saxons forcing their way everywhere.
