Ignorance of history, confirmation bias, wishful thinking, pseduo science. I'd say idiots like that are never going to win, but lots of dumb assholes got away with terrible things before.

Mokotow posted:Every once in a while some young dude will come up and ask if in going into Ukraine. These guys are coming back to join the army, but since the crossing is car only, they need to get into somebody’s car. Its all very strange and depressing. This is the kind of thing I dismissed offhand as propaganda when I saw it on twitter but it really is humbling to see people who have the option to sit this one out actively trying to go back to fight.

Ola posted:To add to the above, since NATO is positioning stuff right now it's only natural that the Russians feel like they have to position some stuff to. Again, for the new page: They frequently move these launchers, that was the design. They move them to ensure they cannot be spotted. Normal thing for these launchers.

Nessus posted:If I recall, there were conversations between some guy on the Joint Chiefs and his equivalent in China which essentially said, "Yes, this is happening. If he says something idiotic on Twitter, do not assume it is happening" which is of course High Treason against the True Forces of Liberal Owning. Massey? I don't remember his name now. I like to think it was a Chen Weihua-type and his counterpart on our side

History is replete with examples of well respected and high ranking military planners staunchly drawing up plans and doctrines that unfortunately fail to reflect reality. It would be weird to think that it did not continue into the modern day.

Warning for Russian apologia but the Irish news had the Russian Ambassador on for a chat if you want to hear their diplomatic line. The last 45 seconds are particularly interesting https://twitter.com/rtenews/status/1497283552014213122?t=kk8Fc7GTZof0wfqr6MGHjA&s=19 "Ambassador, at least for now"

OwlFancier posted:If that is a mobile launcher the whole point of them is to move, it's like submarines. And since it's mobile it could be doing anything including driving to a service depot for maintenance. There might not even be a missile in the drat thing.

Yeah many plans dissolve at first contact and all that. Caen was a D-Day (June 6th 1944) objective for the Allies. It ended up being captured around July 20th. People plan but reality gives zero shits.

Not even that but like, that one guy who decided the US didn't need machine guns right up until they joined the first world war. Second world war british cavalry tank doctrine, american ordnance insisting there was nothing wrong with the torpedoes and you just aren't shooting them right. Institutional bias can get a lot of people killed before it gets picked up on and fixed.

Mooseontheloose posted:I know during the Cuba Missile Crisis the US still had people they could trust in the Kremlin to tell them what's going on. Does that still exist now? Like if Putin said, let's attack Poland does he have any generals that would stop him? The CIA had people who routinely were in the same room as Putin. Then Trump and Putin talked privately. Some of those people were exfiltrated to safety, some were disappeared. It should have been the end of Trump's presidency, instead it was Tuesday.
