Lol at the libs barging in thinking that an entire regiment of Nazis with a training pipeline is innocuous and equivalent to random Fashes being scattered all over an armed force and without much support for them. Yes clearly one is equal to the other in terms of indoctrination and hard power.

Imo Russia should simply have a military free of fascist and white supremacist influences like the United States does

and yet, i find it very strange so many "left wing" people keep finding themselves in complete agreement with the leadership of the one country that has intervened in other's domestic affairs more than any other in the last 70 years.

the reason is that NATO is all in on fast jets that go whooosh and never fighting without complete guaranteed air dominance. we haven't got the faintest idea what to do or how to fight if the fast jets can't go whoosh. like the ground troops won't move if they don't hear jets.

Russia had to go with a doctrine that didn't assume complete air superiority and so their armed forces kept up with all of the boring stuff like combined arms, air defence, and arty arty arty.

It seems like a pretty economical way to modernize their current doctrine on a fairly limited budget. If you can knock out the fancier toys with EW, deny the airspace with SAMs, and then knock out counter-battery fire with audio tracking, you aren’t in a bad position especially if you can protect your more traditional assets.

At the end of the day, modernized Soviet equipment is going to be largely good enough but you need to neutralize as many threats at you can from it.

I love how the media tore apart Biden for doing the best thing a sitting President has done in over 20 years on foreign policy by finally pulling the plug on Afghanistan. Theres no graceful or smooth way to lose a war(especially in a place like Afghanistan) and all that noise was complete and utter manufactured bullshit.

The liberals are gonna have about 12 hours of "Ha! I told you so!" before they get their new marching orders that, actually, this doesn't count as an invasion because that would embarrass Biden and his toothless poo poo throwing.

Whether or not this technically counts as an invasion is entirely up for debate imo.

I live in the rural midwest and not a single person I know, troop or otherwise gives a deep fried poo poo now about leaving Afghanistan. Even most of the dumbest rightwingers I've heard talk about it in real life didn't want us to be there.

I can't imagine anyone but the media will care about this so long as it doesn't result in a shooting war between the US and Russia.
