@davidaugust@mastodon.online Whack-a-Mole, but with a shotgun, and the machine spits out tickets because it's your Chuck E. Cheese to defend. Ukraine is making this costly in the only way scattered homefronts understand.

@davidaugust@mastodon.online "Once they are sent onto the battlefield, Russian fighters survive an average of 20 to 35 minutes.” I take lunch longer than that.

@davidaugust@mastodon.online Europe and the US have deliberately let Russia bleed money and arms, at the expense of Ukrainians.

@davidaugust@mastodon.online This makes suicide by joining the russian army both more reliable and faster than by tying oneself to the tracks of Deutsche Bahn.

@davidaugust@mastodon.online Still banging the drum of ”be very afraid of Russia”, the press I mean. And sure. I live next door. It’s a formidable sized entity and world power. But it’s always been weaker than it seems. It’s corruption and the adventures of it’s complaining snowflake yet obedient people are a steady source of laughs of Eastern Europe, now free of it’s imperialism. It stumbles on still, and a bear can fall on you, but it’s still falling.

@davidaugust@mastodon.online Horrendous, yet I spot glee in the reactions. Over a million killed now - many forced into the Russian army. Lured into it by recruiters spinning lies about other work. People from Botswana, Uganda, South Africa and Kenya duped by recuiters from “Russian Houses”; conscripts and forced laborers from North Korea and Russia. People, not “orcs”, or “vermin”, or “subhumans”. As noted many times, the dictators and oligarchs are the same everywhere. As are the people they send into meat grinders to further their interest. I find no joy in these horrors.

@davidaugust@mastodon.online “According to Russian military bloggers, the average life expectancy of a new recruit—from arrival at a training ground to death in a combat zone—lies somewhere between 10 days and three weeks. Once they are sent onto the battlefield, Russian fighters survive an average of 20 to 35 minutes.” The really shocking part is that Pootin Lavrov and others are spending about 45% of Russian state income to destroy both Ukraine and the prosperity and reputation of Russia. Fucking Morons

@davidaugust@mastodon.online The doc is extremely powerful, being "zeroed" is obviously by #Putin orders "The ➡️ #ZeroLine ⬅️ Inside Russia's War, about how they were tortured for refusing to take part in assaults... on suicide missions. Russian troops call these attacks "meat storms" as waves of men are sent across... to try and wear down #Ukrainian forces" #BBC #Russiansoldiers testified that commanders ARE ordering executions of their own men ☠️😵💫☠️ https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cz7gw3l395ro

@davidaugust@mastodon.online It looks like old Putin is repeating the mistakes of the Soviet Union. The USSR's war in Afghanistan killed and maimed a generation of young men. But the true psychopath that Putin is, he doesn't care. In his mind, young working poor Russians can be sent to the front lines of his war to die.
