Time to wake up
>having another fitWestoid fragility
If you watched thousands of gore videos to own da ruzzians you need more than a welfare check, buddy boy
>>2326288It's kind of sad to see people fall this hard for propaganda, it's no real secret that Ukraine specifically tries to record as much gore as possible in order to specifically make this point.
But it's simple bias, if one side is considerably more invested in recording gore than the other side is, then you can say Ukraine has more gore videos than Russia does, but that doesn't prove Ukraine is actually inflicting more casualties.
>FLOODED WITH THOUSANDS OF VIDEOSPerhaps by this point of the war, 3+ years into it, but all caps declarations of Russia using human wave tactics and loosing half of its military in any battle, with the evidence being an unfortunate squad of three or four being caught by a drone in the open, has been a facet of Ukrainian propaganda and nafo trolls since the first month of the conflict.
>>2326371Well the other factor is that Ukraine is a lot more dependent on FPV drones than Russia is, so both sides use a lot of FPV drones but outside of hitting vehicles that then go bang, generally it's one FPV drone to kill one soldier (which sick fella fucks enjoy anyway), but the rather alarming size of graveyards with Ukrainian flags comes from Russia Kinzhal'ing a barracks or dropping glide bombs on a training camp. Larger weapons that, if recorded at all, will be from a distance and thus deniable that the attack killed anyone at all.
Really fucking sad world we've found ourselves in, to even be needing to pour cold water on the hype of this particular form of war as entertainment.
>>2326435I suspect primarily the intended audience are the Russian population for demoralisiyiivia and the Ukrainian population for the opposite affect. From the little I’ve seen of western pro-Ukrainian circles online, they’re actively choosing to larp as though they’re also Ukrainians, therefore also the audience of these gore videos and furthermore have the Banderite lust for such videos.
Basically they’ve made themselves the audience of gore in solidarity
>>2326586>short trek for the deep battle tank formations of russiaget with the times gramps
tanks are hard countered by drones now
no point in building more
>>2326613>Even from a propaganda perspective most people are just sick of the war, in the West and increasingly so in Ukraine. At this point all the goreposting does is reinforce the senseless brutality of the whole thing.i was talking to a young polish security expert who basically said this was over after the summer counteroffensyiv. he sees the slide into asymmetric warfare and mobilization campaigns as obvious evidence this is a war of attrition ukraine isn't winning.
i dont think drone videos alter what these structural trends predict. casualty rates are probably not lopsided in favor of ukraine.
i still think of the 40 year old american TDF volunteer that was at bakhmut. i met him 2 years ago, how fucked up his body was and how he went back only to die. he left behind a wife and kids in the US. he told me straight up he was just sitting in a trench getting bombed.
>>2326187>Ziggers still pretending like the fact that Russia can't advance to recover the bodies of their fallenwhy would Russians send their fallen
>>2325331 to ukraine?
are you mentally challenged?
you know, you should have deleted the post instead. now get laughed at for being a moron.
>>2326753>Russians are civilized and treat the bodies of their enemies with respect while the ukrainians are barbaric savageswhile that's definitely true, I also think Russia would deny further exchanges if there was suspicion of repeated irregularities
there were also more equal exchanges closer to the beginning of the war, but they ended after the failed counteroffensyiv put an end to the AFU as a force capable of organized operations, that puts a further dent into the theory
>>2326754This guy is just a fascist/glowie
You can tell because he forgot to turn his flag back on when he came back from posting pro-Zio shit in the Iran thread
>>2326288>>2326751The real question is why don't the mods do anything about it
>>2326773same reason why facebook officially made an exception in its hate speech policy for russians, the largest and most powerful global media conglomerates are a direct propaganda arm of the empire and promote the dehumanization of its enemies
but it's still an inter-imperialist conflict between two completely equivalent sides because uhhh putler paid $1,000 to boost tiktoks promoting some european right-winger lmao
>>2326787>uhhh putler paid $1,000 to boost tiktoks promoting some european right-winger lmaoyou do have to admit that is retarded tbh like i get the destabilization aspect but right-wing populists always turn pro-NATO when the time comes, the only right-winger with any value to Putin is Orban I guess, but all he does is delay the EU for like 1 month until they give in and give him something to approve the In Honor of Defenders of Fascism Act or whatever.
Meanwhile, all of Russia's staunch allies and supporters are left-wing. Maybe that should tell Putler something
>>2326766ukraine have the same incentive to collect up Russian KIA. Russia also pay compensations and reparation to each family for each soldier dead. thus it's a burden on the Russia state. but ukraine isn't doing it because they don't have the same numbers to collect. for one, because they are not preparing their soldiers as they should, something even the western media has confessed from time to time, and because Russia has the cutting edge here, despite all the things the west sends. which also sends is shorter numbers.
also, what people seem often fail to understand is that each military has an idiosyncrasy, reflected on the constant use, adaptation, and synergy with the military equipment presented for their use. to make a competent army with the supplied equipment, considering that they are more or less similarly lethal, each personnel requires decades of constant training, and that's a generational change. ukraine went from using Soviet-era equipment to western equipment overnight, and that's an idiosyncratic shock, hard to overcome.
also the population isn't proactively against the Russians either, so there. ukraine is bound to fail.
