seeing this makes me feel keenly aware that the lack of solidarity in the united states is why ice keeps winning most of the time in similar altercations.
Neither is actually true, Russia still have more volunteers than needed to replace the losses, and Iran, at least in fields used in this war, is ahead of most of the world - including even USA.
Yeah, that’s why. In all contexts but one, this is a war. It’s only in the context of the Russian state, as a sovereign state with a body of law, that it’s an SMO.
No one disagrees that the Korean War was a war, but in the context of the US government & law at the time, it was a police action.
I don’t know Russian law and what approval may be needed from the Duma, but if we’re being honest and not overglazing Putin, I wonder if it’s some similar reason to this:
Wikipedia has a list of United States military conflicts, since our inception (it’s long), and very few have been officially declared war.
I’m imagining Russia and any other state operated on similar bases, but obviously an not positive. And right now I cba ti ho digging, as I’ve other things to sort. Maybe I will if I have time and remember. Or maybe anyone else will.
Russia’s struggle hardly compares to Ukraine’s. It hasn’t even formally declared war yet, which is required for full mobilization. It’s still fighting with one hand tied behind its back.
It just helps Russia and Iran to increase cooperation. Russia could ask Iran for manpower in return for technology know-how.
Russia is struggling with manpower; Iran is struggling with know-how and technology
I talked to some Ukrainians on the platform about this and all they could do is claim foreign vessels are legitimate targets if they’re part of a supply chain and supplement it with either racism or “Iranians are oppressed we’re doing them a favor by attacking their government”
Kind of hard to see from the angle, but kind of looks like he may know a little boxing. I kept trying to see how open he left himself, but either way, he did well.
Russia is a multiethnic bourgeois state, and it wouldn’t surprise me if this is mostly true, as it is in the US.
With that said, this comes off as AI slop. If I were writing a piece like this, I would provide supporting evidence.
Emphasis mine:
This is a system of internal colonialism that has existed since Soviet times.
This part I don’t think is true. It existed in Tsarist times, and it exists now, but minority representation actually improved significantly during the Soviet era.
[T]hey are slaves to an imperial regime that sees them as disposable.
In the context of internal colonialism, you might call Russia internally imperialist, but I wouldn’t generalize it. Previously.
Yes. Always, rich and wealthy people win. They find a way to escape. But poor people don’t have a choice except being nationalists, staying, and dying for the rich. My comment is not specifically for this post. I am writing about how the world order works
You’re commenting under an article about arrests made due “anything goes” approach of the regime toward the munitions and think they have everything under control?
I’m not fence-sitting. I am not pro-Russian either. I post what Western media ignores – the bad side of Ukraine that they won’t show. Everyone already sees what Russia does. That’s not the problem. The problem is the West sanitizes Ukraine.
Kalibrated is pretty sober & they talk to pro-Ukraine people as well if that jives with your fence-sitting
Alexander Mercouris is also peak fencesitting since it’s all from a western IR perspevtive but he’s bleak as hell.
How do you not get depressed looking at this stuff all the time? The play-by-play is exhausting & the online tug-of-war over every claim goes on as long as possible.
i see you keep throwing around accusations of fascism towards the US (correct), yet stand here supporting another. like why stop there, when you’re already halfway there?
🪞
Russia is a fascist regime. Russia invaded Ukraine. Its not hard to connect the dots
the government wouldn’t have to keep doing warcrimes if it weren’t for the russians you know storing explosives in civilian areas is a fucking warcrime right? are you aware of any of the actions the kiev regime has engaged in these past +10 years? i see you keep throwing around accusations of fascism towards the US (correct), yet stand here supporting another. like why stop there, when you’re already halfway there?
Are they trying to imply that Russia is attempting to hand over their own soldiers or random people? Who else could they be? Do you know what DNA testing is? What a fantastic title. Maybe there is a KGB DNA recombobulator like in Cruelty Squad that just turns people into a pile of indistinguishable meat. Maybe western weapons are so powerful that the seething mass of flesh has actually taken on a life of its own, as of yet unknown to modern science. In which case, please edit to “bodies” (in scare quotes) for clarity.
Why are you so offended when I share information and report it as misinformation? Do you say people who are against conscription are pro-Russian bots? There are dozens of public videos that show TCC forcing men into the army and abusing them. Russia is an imperialist state, but it doesn’t mean Ukraine is not corrupt, and we can’t criticize Ukraine, otherwise it makes people just bigot
I know right? It would be much simpler if russia could stop their colonization attempts and then Ukraine wouldn’t need to conscript people.
Its so disappointing that russia is causing this

Cool! Another new spammer to block!

this happened in LA in the ice videos too!
it’s like the ice videos in the united states

It unquestionably is a war *de facto*, but de jure within the state of Russia, it’s a “special military operation.”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Declaration_of_war
Russia should not need full mobilization. Ukraine should need full mobilization.
What is formally declared war, if today’s fight is not a war?
Note: I am a neutral person and just seeking justice and balance
*conscription van

nothing about this situation is sane, so we shouldn’t expect it.

Just absolutely insane!
Horrific that a country forces innocents to die for a war machine
it’s incredible that they chase after them; americans need this kid of solidarity. lol
literally chasing after the van like the white supremacists in the united states struggled to keep up with their rental box vans. lol
best fake out ever. lol
i hope he got away.
I will keep sharing. Since Reddit blocks this information, I have started to migrate to lemmy
welcome
thanks for sharing this
is there any followup on what ended up happening?
it’s the same size as the “protests” that we have in the united states. lol
Thanks for the edited post reapload.

Good pup!
Ukrainian recruiter officers
What is TCC?
This is one of the resources in the Turkish language. So I have translated it to English. I will edit the post and provide more evidence
If resources are not sufficient, you can remove the post

Drones are not enough to win a war
Obvious answer is that drones can’t replace humans, there is not enough drones and there is not enough humans
You have drones, why the fuck are you still recruiting meat shields?

Yes. Always, rich and wealthy people win. They find a way to escape. But poor people don’t have a choice except being nationalists, staying, and dying for the rich. My comment is not specifically for this post. I am writing about how the world order works
Ukrainians arent a special kind of people who cant be bigoted
Damn I can’t believe the ukraine chearleader is also bigoted, crazy
-You in 1944, talking about the evil allied invasion of Normandy
damn these russians for making us do war crimes and terrorism! surely it can’t be because we’re corrupt and fascist? no, couldn’t be!
Regime? Anything goes approach? They have it as much under control as they can, considering their fascist neighbours are trying to anex them
You’re commenting under an article about arrests made due “anything goes” approach of the regime toward the munitions and think they have everything under control?
brave warriors need to rape and kill
Ordinary Ukrainians are being fucked up from both their government agencies and russia. This is sad.
How is Ukraine, not “the” Ukraine, lacking control?
I followed up with the main reason for the lack of control yet you claim that somehow it’s not applicable to the ukraine
Because of what I replied to originally. Its not what you followed up with.
Then why try to deny it?
Of course it is capitalist. Of course it suffered greatly due to its neighbours.
Do you genuinely think ukraine isn’t capitalist? Or that it wasn’t torn to scraps like every country in the region?
Good thing that doesn’t apply to Ukraine! Once russia collapses, Ukraine can de-mobilize and start returning to a form of normalcy.
If a rabid capitalist state cannot control its munitions during a war, then it would have even less of an incentive to do so in peacetime
Why would they?
And what exactly makes you think they wouldn’t allow it in peacetime?
I’m not fence-sitting. I am not pro-Russian either. I post what Western media ignores – the bad side of Ukraine that they won’t show. Everyone already sees what Russia does. That’s not the problem. The problem is the West sanitizes Ukraine.
No, i know which country invaded the other.
too hard for you it seems. oh well.
Kalibrated is pretty sober & they talk to pro-Ukraine people as well if that jives with your fence-sitting
Alexander Mercouris is also peak fencesitting since it’s all from a western IR perspevtive but he’s bleak as hell.
How do you not get depressed looking at this stuff all the time? The play-by-play is exhausting & the online tug-of-war over every claim goes on as long as possible.
it is ,but this is the reality
That’s risky business; recording it & posting it to the world even more so.
Nonsense.
That many western euro countries are colonialist?
Let’s wait for the official statement from Ukraine.
And south east Asia, and north America. Yes western europe is awful, dont forget Spain and Portugal, Netherlands etc.
I don’t agree. Europe and the USA see Russia as an enemy and a threat and use Ukraine to weaken Russia , which works.
🪞
Russia is a fascist regime. Russia invaded Ukraine. Its not hard to connect the dots
No, you see russia invaded a sovereign nation. Its not a proxy war, its helping a country defend itself from colonial invaders
Imperialist Russia, the USA, and Israel. France is an imperialist of Europe, but they do not mention it.(look at africa)
Yes I know, the faster it falls the faster this war ends
Russia is struggling. The proxy war of Europe+USA is working very well
Russia is struggling
the government wouldn’t have to keep doing warcrimes if it weren’t for the russians you know storing explosives in civilian areas is a fucking warcrime right? are you aware of any of the actions the kiev regime has engaged in these past +10 years? i see you keep throwing around accusations of fascism towards the US (correct), yet stand here supporting another. like why stop there, when you’re already halfway there?
The faster russia fails the better
I cant wait for russia to collapse so Ukraine won’t have to do this anymore. It would be so much easier if russia stayed in its borders.
Colonial fuckers. Get out of Ukraine
Let’s wait for confirmation of Ukraine
The Russians have been slow to confirm this, but that’s mostly because they like to stagger their press releases. Consider it gone.
Are they trying to imply that Russia is attempting to hand over their own soldiers or random people? Who else could they be? Do you know what DNA testing is? What a fantastic title. Maybe there is a KGB DNA recombobulator like in Cruelty Squad that just turns people into a pile of indistinguishable meat.

In which case, please edit to “bodies” (in scare quotes) for clarity.
I’d love to see where I said I was offended. Or when I “reported” it as misinformation.
No
And I agreed! Its horrible
Yes 100%, there is clearly corruption in Ukraine, can you please show where i said otherwise?
Why are you so offended when I share information and report it as misinformation? Do you say people who are against conscription are pro-Russian bots?

-You in 1945 Berlin as they give out rifles to the old men and schoolkids
if only americans could see this.
I know right? It would be much simpler if russia could stop their colonization attempts and then Ukraine wouldn’t need to conscript people. Its so disappointing that russia is causing this
Everything is expected if there is no merit. Both Ukraine and Russia are corrupt
Is Putin planning to take Kyiv or just Kharkov and Odessa 🤔
Lmao recruiters don’t even hiding their real allegiance:
Also some of the conscripts had trouble even climbing the two steps to the bus, i wonder how will they fare in the training.
