I would say that the number for the 777s and M109s are somewhat reflective of how many systems they did manage to take out in total temporarily or permanently, but it would be a stretch to believe anything they have to say about a HIMARS launcher being taken out. Ukraine husbands every single one as carefully as possible.

So the same cope as before, "muh nooks", minor amounts of lost trade, and aspirational but hopeless talk about how Russia will strengthen its borders against Finland - after having stripped them of troops and equipment to prosecute the disastrous war in Ukraine where they lose armor on the daily like it's going out of style. Like for gently caress's sake they're trying to reactivate T-62s and T-54s/55s and ancient artillery systems, these are going to be wrecked by even drones the way they're misused on the front with poor tactics. e: lmao at the talk that America and NATO will force Finland to invade Russia for any reason at all

All they are doing is utterly undermining any confidence in leftist movements. The primary reasoning they use is "America bad, EU bad, and NATO bad" while saying that Ukraine should give up and stop fighting, and return to its place as being part of Novorossiya. They conveniently ignore the fact that if Ukraine does give up, they'll have their population oppressed, enslaved, and genocided. The idiots in the UN litigating it as "not ackchyually being a genocide" have really muddied the optics around that as well. But it's the not being consistent with anti-imperialism part that gets me the most. Some of the more unhinged of them keep going on about "Galician nationalists" and "historical population trends", while repeating Russian talking points about the supposed oppression and mass killings of Russian speakers in the Donbass region, that have no bearing in reality to the extent they claim. At this point i'm convinced they don't care what happens to Ukraine or its people excepting that Russia winning would be a black eye for both Europe and America, call the validity of NATO into question, and strengthen their concept of the so-called Multipolar world. Maybe the world doesn't need bad actors and troublemakers like Russia having the amount of influence they did have until this war began, how about it? And even if you express this viewpoint to so-called "leftists" and "realists" they'll immediately hit back with whataboutism or try justifying poo poo like the Cambodian genocide.

The west can never do anything right, because that means capitalism and imperialism has done something right. China and Russia can do nothing wrong, since they are not the west ergo anti-capitalist and anti-imperialist.

And not to mention, an intercept from one of the local architects of the Donbass civil war said that it was almost impossible to recruit enough disgruntled locals to make it as completely deniable as possible, because the local citizens weren't interested in any rebellion. They were quite content with their lives and it didn't matter to them if they were ruled by either Ukraine or Russia. He then proceeded to say that without the aid of Strelkov, Borodai, and the other Russian assets and grunts on the ground, triggering the civil war would have been basically impossible. Strelkov himself confessed that the annexation of Crimea was 100% illegal and done at gunpoint and threat of death to anyone that refused to ratify it, so what business do they have continuing to squat there on land that doesn't belong to them?

GABA ghoul posted:It's loving bonkers. Since this was a little bit before my time, were there also self-proclaimed leftists back in 1941 that were cheering on Hitler to denazify the "Stalin Junta"/"Moscow Regime"? That was before the Internet, so probably the leftists of the day were actually leftists and not just generic "gently caress YOU DAD" angry teens in middle-aged bodies like so many today. But I mean, the ultimate self-proclaimed leftist was Hitler himself who had a shall we say unique understanding of what socialism means. To him "socialism" meant uniting all Germans not by class or social standing, but by race, into a Volksgemeinschaft, a national community. He went on record (and said in private conversations) that he wouldn't nationalise even the largest capitalist ventures, unless of course they went against his views on racial purity etc. If they didn't, then gently caress it, capitalist away! Also, some have suggested that despite the official reasons, there is evidence that a lof of Hitler's decisions were based on purely spiting socialists and bolsheviks; hence calling the party the National Socialist Party and using a red flag. Of course red white and black were also the colours of the German Empire so who knows.

Finnish PM Sanna Marin, who just lost an election a few days ago (her party was third), says she will step down as party leader in September. Article (in Finnish) Quote: "SDP Chairperson Sanna Marin does not intend to continue leading the party after the September party conference." Meanwhile elsewhere in Europe: "Stoltenberg's mission as secretary general was extended for another four-year term, meaning that he was to lead NATO until September 30, 2022.[3] However, due to Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022, his term was extended further by another year.[4]"

I mean even calling it a civil war feels ridiculous, considering the pre-war Donbas population was IIRC somewhere around 4 million. Ukrainian state forces easily moved into the area and liberated it almost completely before Russia invaded with its army and pushed them back. It's like trying to present a conflict between the city of Boston and the United States government as a 8 year long civil war. Who are you kidding? People can easily look up the population of Boston and the US.
