    Remember that they want Europe to be afraid and stockpile material that otherwise would go to ukraine.

      It’s time for you guys to decide whether you want direct war with Russia or not. Imagining that they aren’t ready for it, and this is just a diversion, is seriously risky. I’m nervous with how Europeans are getting bolder the more Ukraine fails to fulfil its military objectives. Nobody is doing more than doubling down on political narratives that were dry in 2022.

              No one finds your Russian BS fulfilling and it’s also work to read it.

          I can tell you don’t read Ukrainian newspapers by your blind dismissal of any military shortcomings. They bicker about it constantly. Why do you think Zaluzhny as exiled?

              You clearly don’t understand how organizational hierarchies work. In his position as ambassador he has zero leverage on military strategy, as he did in his military position. Why do you think he was removed from decisionmaking and the country itself?

              They are doing fine, they maintain a large reserve, 3 times larger reserves of diesel and crude, 22% of refineries sit idle normally, and the drone attacks penetrating are causing inconsistent damage, at most shutting places down for a week or two. Gas tank explosions look big, but it’s apparently not hard to fix. Who knew refineries planned for fuel accidents? I digress. Friend of mine just did a detailed breakdown of what exactly the damage being done to Russia’s gasoline refinement is, what the reserves are, and what escalation options Russia has postponed until now. You should be concerned about the ability to keep trading blows like this. I know you love watching Ukraine getting fucked up, but I hate seeing good infrastructure go to waste. They waited to start hitting gas infrastructure until January, remember that. There was a real hope the rail and pipelines might keep flowing to Europe.

              Wrong, that is what Europe is saying “Little Borat” (you love Mossad propaganda so much you named your reply guy account after it, hmmm), they have determined the best way to avoid war with Russia is provocation. Keep shaking your dainty little ass at them and just hope America saves you. After all, NATO is the sword, and the sword’s shield. 😂

A community for discussing events around the World

Rules:

  • Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:

    • Post news articles only
    • Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
    • Title must match the article headline
    • Not United States Internal News
    • Recent (Past 30 Days)
    • Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
    • Blogsites are treated in the same manner as social media sites. Medium, Blogger, Substack, etc. are not valid news links regardless of who is posting them. Yes, legitimate news sites use Blogging platforms, they also use Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube and we don’t allow those links either.
  • Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think “Is this fair use?”, it probably isn’t. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.

  • Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.

  • Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.

  • Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19

  • Rule 5: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

  • Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.

  • Rule 7: We didn’t USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you’re posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
