Ukraine being really tight-lipped about basically everything except careful propaganda reveals is a big topic with this war, people definitely discuss it irl.

Call me old fashioned but i was thinking NOD Commander from Command & Conquer. :corsair:

edit: can't help but wonder what their logistics are like these days, lorries/fuel trucks ain't sexy but they are required more than ever with the ammo depots being relocated further to the rear.

Their logistics hasn't really changed, in terms of practice, but they have been dispersing their supplies more which blunts the effectiveness of HIMARS. They still use KAMAZes, converted civilian vehicles, and plain old manpower to move their supplies from the supply hubs under their control (such as Tokmak, Ilovaisk, Volnovakha, etc.) that in turn receive their supplies from the Russian homeland from places like Belgorod and Rostov-on-Don. This still makes them vulnerable to interdiction by way of capturing the rail networks or destroying any bridges that could strand the supplies on one side.

So after the epic GBS mod who thinks modding is like being queer and thinks mild mockery is comparable to the harassment queer people face banned me for some very weak trolling I had some time to think about this thread and I have concluded that it is irredeemable garbage and disgusting to me on a personal level because of its content and posters. You freaks treat this war not as a humanitarian crisis where thousands of people have been killed or displaced but as a video game where you can cheer on the deaths of Russian soldiers, most of whom are conscripts and don't want to be there and laugh over their dying bodies as you high five each other over the epic content of a russian being blown apart by artillery fire. Because that's what the war is to you losers. Content. Not a war where people are dying horribly but as a content mill where you can hoot and holler over human misery because its happening to the bad guys. None of you are any different than the GBS freaks who would laugh and make death pools over Mt. Everest hikers freezing to death and dying and it wouldn't surprise me if there is crossover between that thread and this one. All of you disgust me and the moderators who enable this behavior disgust me even more.

I know none of the mods are going to read this and reflect and are already preparing to ban me again for trolling the Genuine Human Suffering Mega thread because moderators on this website are notoriously stupid and incapable of learning and are probably even now in wordfilter mode and looking for any bad words in this post (Retard. oval office. Bitch.) because its easier to push a button and ban someone than it is to look inward and ask yourself why you think a russian conscript getting blown apart by artillery fire make you sexually aroused.



(USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

it's unfortunate that you torpedoed your whole post with a whiny no-no word digression at the end there, because you're right to some extent for a lot of posters itt tbqh. I'll admit I'm guilty of it myself. but it's excessively difficult to prove intent, and people skirt the edges of what's acceptable.

what complicates this legitimate criticism is that there are a lot of bad-faith posters external to this thread who try to mischaracterize and flanderize these posters to an absurd degree, going even so far as to post obscene parody posts in attempt to "own" them—as you yourself have done in the past. the behavior and language of the actual thread regulars being targeted is questionable, but the response by people like you is straight unhinged. even when a real criticism is delivered, it always comes packaged with some hyperbolic insanity or subforum drama.

I also rebuke your implicit assumption that Russian citizens are innocent victims of this war. it's true that Putin is essentially attempting to genocide not just Ukraine but the lower classes and ethnic minorities by forcing them into service. but I consider the mainline Russian political body and every citizen who subscribes to it part and parcel in the perpetuation of violence and subversion against their neighbors in Eastern Europe since the "fall" of the Soviet union. Ukraine is entirely an innocent victim of a directed colonization effort and every Russian who refuses to recognize their national sovereignty is culpable.

but putting that all aside: what exactly do you expect from a thread about war in gbs?

but but but something nazis, something minsk agreement, something HATO encroaching on poor russia's buffer state, something color revolution, something Yanukovych was the real President of Ukraine, therefore Ukraine *deserved* to be invaded and its innocent citizens killed and murdered because some manlet psychopath dictator wanted to "go down in history".

A good outcome would be if the people of Russia strung up Putin from a lamp post, until then degreasing the Russian army in the field is the best possible outcome, just like it was the last time there was a war against the Nazis.

E: I'm leaving degreasing in

Outside the US we definitely did, and mainstream Americans were understandably biased and caught up in 9/11 Fever (which was a terrible and wrong thing to be doing and essentially a fascist movement but it definitely happened and people in the US were on board).

Wanting one side to win in order to put an end to a prolonged conflict isn't cheering on murder.

It's really easy to cry about how there should be no war when you're not the one being forced into it. From the comfort of your computer, it's very easy to accuse everyone involved with simply loving death.

It's really easy to say it would have been better for Ukraine to have negotiated a settlement, when you wouldn't have to be the ones living under the terms agreed to.

It's possible to hope the Ukrainians win and still regret all the Russians being sent to their deaths because of a demented sack of poo poo like Putin. Frankly it's weird when people ITT get huffy and pretend these are mutually exclusive positions.

Except discussion along this line is already accomplished by the D&D thread, which generates more or less zero interforum issues outside of CSPAM.
