Also, weird how Ukraine only had 10k losses according to western media, but is suddenly running out of people to recruit. Could it be that western media's been lying all along. 🤔
It's been 19 years since the first open west-backed coup in Ukraine. Just enough time to raise a new generation of fighting men, fed exclusively CIA propaganda from the cradle.
Even the most bloodthirsty Western chauvinist will think twice before putting their own lives on the line. The NAFO dogs have probably all read the reports of US and UK spec ops veterans nopeing the fuck out once they realized Russia has artillery and aviation. The shitposters can put on a facade of nonchalance very easily from behind a keyboard, but it's much harder to do that with Russian jets flying overhead.
When workshopping slogans, it played out better than "Are you willing to die for the United States?" or "Time to just get it over with".
I think the runner up was going to be "Zerg Rush!" but Blizzard wouldn't allow it, the Putin propagandaists.
Seriously though, I feel like having a recruitment slogan is just window dressing. People are being pressed into service and I just feel bad for them, anyone being dragged into war now are definitely not people that deserve what is going to happen to them. These are largely not the fascists and war tourists who would deserve it, these are the regular citizens who just want to live their lives and have to suffer for their leadership.
Given the way colonial soldiers have been used by Britain in WW1? It's always been projection.
"Those dirty Asiatics are breaching Nazi lines left and right? Blunting offensives of glorious western Teutonics?! Dang, they must be using insane amounts of cannon fodder! No way they have sensible strategies and tools to execute them!"
“Those dirty Asiatics are breaching Nazi lines left and right? Blunting offensives of glorious western Teutonics?! Dang, they must be using insane amounts of cannon fodder! No way they have sensible strategies and tools to execute them!”
And then they order such operations as at Dieppe and Monte Cassino. Especially the last place is fucking telling everything where white commanders just ordered brown soldiers to attack unscouted heavily fortified positions, and when they ran out of bodies they send the honorary white polish soldiers and when Poles succeeded they were surprised as fuck.
Idk, chief. We've had articles about Ukraine "running out of men" for almost as long as we had articles about Russia "running out of missiles". The fights are still going and going hard
I too am in the "I'll believe it when I see it" camp on articles predicting an imminent end to the war. But you can make more missiles a lot faster than you can make more people.
