speculation from Russian telegram channels that Russia's desertion of Kherson is imminent!

I mean, the number of anti-roma pogroms in russia isn't **zero**. It's mostly a function of how bad things are going in any given european nation.

e: the fact that russia is considerably more prosperous than ukraine will likely be a factor, but also maybe not

lol I feel like I’m taking crazy pills but we know the UK trained Ukrainian sabotage and mine clearance divers, including on remote vehicles, they trained Ukrainian naval commandos, there were leaks alleging Brit consultants were intimately involved in planning the Crimea bridge which was intended to involve remote vehicles, we know they provided Ukraine with several of them.

The circumstantial evidence is there in dozens of articles about mine clearance, or training programs, or technical assistance, but then Germany would doubtlessly know that too.

Ukrainian command seems a lot less optimistic about taking Kherson than Twitter. Also bonus accusation that Russia soldiers are dressing up as civilians to make Ukraine look bad when they kill them. I really should make a list of all the insane things the Ukrainian side has said were false flags.

The information of the British Intelligence Service is confirmed by the Head of the State Security Department of the Ministry of Defense Budanov, who states that the Russian Federation is not planning to leave Kherson, but is working to strengthen the defense of the city.

In many aspects it is an information operation and manipulation.

Well, they wouldn't need bridges across the Dnieper, that said, I don't think all of them were destroyed either. That it was also odd that the Russians made a giant panic about the dam being destroyed, to the point of near certainity, and there hasn't been a peep about it for a week.

If that happens and it works it will be so funny. So it is probably what will happen, per the Felix Biederman principle.

​Hurry up and sell! 😂

The State Property Fund continues a massive sale of Ukraine: this time, it is auctioning off energy infrastructure facilities. Yes, yes, the very same energy infrastructure facilities that are regularly shelled by the Russian army. And private citizens are offered to buy them. Knowing that they may be bombed today or tomorrow. 😎

Why might they bomb it, though? Among other things, for example, the Severodonetsk thermal power plant, which was seriously damaged during the summer battles for the city, is up for sale. In fact, Severodonetsk and Lysychansk are not even under the control of the Saloreich, but this does not prevent them from selling the property there. Just as it does not prevent Zelebobus from putting up for bid the Kherson thermal power plant while Kherson is still under the control of the Russian army. 🥴

However, in this case it is not a minus, but a plus: when people ask why the infrastructure is being sold for next to nothing, Zelebobus will make round eyes and say: there's a war in the country, and if we don't sell now, then tomorrow there will be nothing left to sell!

I get so loving furious when people don't care about Ukraine as much as me. Absolutely livid. It's seriously horrific that you don't care about Ukraine.

Our source in the OP told us that there are more and more problems with volunteers/mercenaries, and for the AFU they are turning into ballast. Soldiers coming from abroad have a dramatic drop in morale, it is becoming much harder to fight, and they are not accustomed to the late-autumn weather and the hardships associated with it. Information keeps coming in that they refuse to obey AFU commanders, break discipline and complain to the Western media. If at the beginning of the war they played a significant role for the Ukrainian army, now the situation is changing dramatically.

For any other English speakers, despite the fact that the video is called "Our Tactics" the whole video is basically him reading Rybar posts summarizing the events of the last two months (either that or he's memorized every single AFU brigade involved in the Kherson counteroffensive and how much equipment they lost in each battle, in which case I applaud his level of autism)

Yeah I wasn't yelling at you I was just interested in what he was talking about. Although considering he didn't really mention any personal anecdotes I get the sense he's not up to much besides reading Telegram

There are rumors in the corridors that Arsen Borisovich is biding his time and will return to public politics.
By the way, he said a lot of things that are talked about in the deep state, but are afraid to voice publicly.

Briefly:
- corruption has reached unprecedented proportions, the time will come, many schemes will come to light.
- Hryvnia issuance, catastrophically threatens the exchange rate. Which will certainly lead to the depreciation of wages and pensions.
- We should have implemented the Minsk agreements.

Like, there's this dumb little song on youtube from the Bush War that was evidently composed by soldiers. It's set the tune of "It's a Long Way to Tipperary" but all the lyrics about how the drill sergeant yells alot and how there's a nice club in Bulawayo. It's exactly sort of song that yokels in the most extraneous portion of the British Empire would write, and all the comments underneath it are these 20-something idiots having religious experiences about the Rhodesian dream and how they could see themselves bush warring as they listen in 480p.

The one comment from a real deal Rhodesian is this totally grill-pilled boomer comment where the guy is like "nice song, reminds me of dirty tunes we'd sing barracks. didn't know anyone recorded this stuff!" The little manlings crowded around this guy and tried to ask him what rhodesia was like and where he is now, and the fella didn't respond.
