These kind of reports are coming out regularly and hey go figure, Ukraine having a real white supremacy issue this could be bad for ethnic minorities internally

Generation Internet posted:https://twitter.com/Militarylandnet/status/1499777532438224899 Fun fact: these codes ("bort numbers," meaning "side number," although the Russian references I have never use that phrase) only represent the aircraft's number in its individual unit. So in the entire VKS, there could be a 5-10 different "04 White"s of various types flying around. I genuinely do not know how they kept/keep any kind of running inventory of how many aircraft they have on hand; that may be why they started serialing stuff in the RF-###### range fairly recently. But it makes identifying aircraft for enthusiasts like me an absolute nightmare. The authors who I got this from often use the phrase "to confuse hypothetical spies," which probably describes a lot of the weird poo poo that went on in Soviet industry.

Even that tends to really stand out because of the sort of roles those shitheels tend to take as careers

Alan Smithee posted:wait so literally the "paint 3 pigs 1, 2, and 4?" Funnily enough no, they really do seem to do numbers in sequence as far as I know. The Algerian AF does assign serials in skipped blocks to suggest they have more aircraft than they actually do. The Venezuelans do (or did) the same.

Handsome Ralph posted:So yeah there is actually some chud context here. You guys all remember Eddie Gallagher and his bullshit, right? Anyways, there exists within the SEALs an ideological divide in which a bunch of them consider themselves "pirates" in that they feel and act more lawless, more willing to take risks, and more hard charging than regular SEALs (Yes I know how that sounds) . I know a couple of you read Alpha about the whole Eddie Gallagher trial, but they specifically talk about how that group of SEALs uses Blackbeard's flag as their unofficial flag, and conversely, how it has caused all sorts of headaches for NSW command. They are also conversely loaded with chuds (no poo poo). Wasabi the J posted:Forward Observations Group Wasabi the J posted:https://www.dailyveracity.com/2022/...ifestyle-brand/

Breathlessly running in to the thread to talk about how there's bad people, too, and why doesn't anyone care to make more of that?!?! in the country having their major population centers razed via mass artillery just makes you a giant shithead, hth. Racist as gently caress cops and single digit % out and out white supremacists in a population is, Sadly, not remotely notable in any two way in our present times and trying to hold that up as a bludgeon against people supporting Ukraine right now is gross, at best.
