I'm pretty sure this thread has broken every major event of this war before the mainstream news caught up to it. We were talking about Wagner recruiting from prisons weeks before the BBC picked up on it and reported it, for example.

e: I also remember that zone posted about the kherson retreat hours before anyone else was reporting on it, and gigolo once posted about the kharkiv retreat a full 13 hours before any other source picked up on it

True but how many times have they posted things that didn't come to pass? If you keep predicting things eventually you'll be right but we'll only know afterwards.

Yeah, but I was kind of crossed wires there.

I meant when the Russian right wing media were sending him off with the extreme implication that he will not be missed and it wasn't an accident but it was and they were not doing subtlety.

It's upthread but one or two of those videos of Russian Fox News shout men were just pitilessly sending off the whole air crew to their early graves.

I can't think of an analogy in the west for just sorry not sorry.

https://www.cnn.com/2020/10/15/politics/trump-fugitive-shooting/index.html

We do kill people indiscriminately but eh

Russian news media didn't do a strong job of saying Putin didn't have this done but maybe it could be done to you, so shut up.

It's real bad, the treatment and primitive. I have trouble parsing how it's not just a culture of fear and fat cowardly cowards saying yeah well he deserved being blown up and the stewardesses too.

I'm kind of unimaginative though because when you can put a bomb in a plane *simple* you can find a guy on the tarmac and take a pipe wrench to his trachea. Mystery death like Lynyrd Skynyrd. Rock and Roll Blue Jeans!

People watch too many movies.

It boggles my mind why Prigozhin didn't play it to the nines. The only thing I can imagine is that Putin (poop be upon him) had leverage on family or friends he cared about more than his own life and the lives of his confederates.

It turns out that posting literally everything you see means you sometimes get a scoop, but also people have posted 'news' that basically every member of the Russian government, especially Putin, has died about 5000000 times, usually involving poo poo because goons are obsessed with poo poo.

It's such an easy pull to post it and get people jerking off about it even though nothing to support it.

You can see in real time people guess the trajectory of the next 10 years of American policy, as well as a bunch of other people being radicalized in real time to be the reason that policy happened.

And inflation is still trending up. The Russian state is pouring so much cash into the economy that they have to strangle all private sector investment to balance things out. If they keep going what's left of the Russian economy will end up entirely dependent on public spending.

To achieve such a sacred and holy mission in the name of god, they will need some kind of elite military unit comprised of only their very best men - with the highest morale and a close brotherly camaradary.

Some kind of Sacred Battalion seems in order. Or a Sacred Band.

The expectation was he'd sieze the eastern half of Ukraine outright as Russian land, and the west lives in hell as a buffer space between Russia and NATO after the president flees like a coward clown man at the first sign of combat and be done in three days before anyone could complain too loudly.

It's not quite going according to plan.

This video is kind of relevant to the above chat about Russias plans for east Ukraine. It never was and never is about poo poo like ''buffer zones''. It's pure imperialistic expansion and that Russia is a superior race to everyone else and can do what it wants. The tone of the video is actual fascism and not the ''someone disagreeded with me'' fascism. Obligatory lol at Ukraine language part.

If Russia actually wanted a buffer zone I'm pretty sure UA would agree to demilitarizing the east half of the country in a heartbeat in 2014.

They already had a buffer zone after 2015. Ukraine being partly occupied and involved in a low-intensity forever war with a nuclear power, they had zero chance of ever joining NATO or the EU. But at some point a buffer zone just wasn't enough anymore. Suddenly he wanted to fly his loving flag over the whole thing like in the history books.

In Makhachkala, the capital of Dagestan, a mob tried to storm a plane coming from Tel Aviv. Just another example of Russia's contempt and hatred towards other cultures, according to Zelenskiy.

He's right. I also find it very hard to believe that a protest of this size can take place in the current political climate without the security forces approving to some extent. But that might be my paranoia talking .
