BTW, this I'd a hard-core dem liberal sub that genuinely believes in trump when he says that Russia has lost 14 times as many soldiers as Ukraine this year.

I'm linking the thread because there are horrors beyond the comprehension in this thread.

A facially ridiculous and unfeasible claim, anyone who believes this is blinded by ideology. In peer warfare the casualty ratio is usually between 1:2 and 2:1. Even so, if Ukraine was losing this much ground while inflicting 14 times the deaths it would make them look even worse off

Ah but you see ... CIA

I also suspect the CIA has something to do with the disparity too. It'll be interesting to read the post mortem, decades from now, but I would guess we're doing quite a bit to help them direct artillery fire. What's the proverb? Hell hath no fury like a bored (former) 131A. We're seeing some of the results of the best trained military in the world finally putting their spy satellites and signals intelligence to work in a conventional conflict.

TIL the CIA has a satellite beam that kills Russians from the sky.

The space lasers actually belonged to the CIA, not the Jews.

best trained military in the world

tbf, the yankee fascists are ruthlessly drilled in 100 ways to kill an unarmed child
their experience and dedication to massacring civilians by the ton is only rivaled by the IOF
who else has the single-minded devotion to obliterating a wedding party from an air-conditioned room in nebraska?

This isn’t “peer” warfare anymore though. Russia outguns the Ukrainians by a ratio of 10:1 and has air superiority

The ratio is actually something like 1:8, but in the opposite direction that the westoids claim

[–] Collatz_problem@hexbear.net 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

If the ratio were 1:8, then Russia would have won the war long ago.

Turns out it takes a long time to churn through a million Ukrainian conscripts

Military collapse doesn't require killing all enemy troops or even the majority of them. Just enough to disrupt his ability to organize a coherent defense. And Ukraine is still able to do so, even if its efficiency is steadily declining.

[–] Z_Poster365@hexbear.net 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Ukrainian losses exceed 600,000

[–] Collatz_problem@hexbear.net 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'm very sceptical of any losses numbers, because everyone involved has motivation to lie about them.

Yeah Ukraine is just having acute manpower shortages despite supposedly having a million man army for no reason in particular
