Russian troops have suffered severe losses since the war began in February with Ukraine claiming it has killed more than 23,000 of Moscow’s soldiers.

The wrecks of Putin’s war machines also litter the land he ordered his forces to invade as Ukraine also claims it has destroyed more than 1,000 tanks, 2,400 armoured vehicles and 345 aircraft.

Anyone who believes this is fucking retarded.

What's your reason(s) for saying that?

[ - ] FreeinTX 4 points 3 yearsMay 2, 2022 07:29:09 ago (+4/-0)

Because its true. You'd have to be dumb as fuck to think Ukraine has inflicted as much damage as they claim. If they were this successful, they wouldn't need $33B from the US alone to continue fighting their lost cause.

Do you think we are sanctioning Russia? Or, is it more likely, given that Russia and China have booming economies while ours is shrinking, that Russia has simply cut us off?

And, what would be the US response if Russia or China was funneling $45 Billion worth of military aid into Mexico? And given that the US is sending weapons to Ukraine, what do you expect the result will be when Russia violently responds to that act of war?

Any money that is exchanged during wartime is just corruption and will go to some contractor or person in the ruling class; war is simply an excuse.

"Economies" as they are viewed by the west (really fucked up and convoluted economies) are not always correct. What does some country care about the cost of iron on the markets if they do not export or import the good? Your "GDP" could be super-duper low because you aren't trading, and it doesn't actually mean anything. They could be increasing production (and likely are) and none of these metrics would change at all.

I agree with you fully, i'm just clarifying some points, and reiterating that op should know not to trust anything he sees from the media.

The article says 1000 tanks destroyed, your link shows 599. That's a miss by 40%.

For example

3200 "vehicles" in the link. The article claims over 4000. That's a 20% miss.

And that's assuming that all these photos are actually what they claim.

That's only one category, scroll down cope boi, each one has a photo attached

[ - ] FreeinTX 2 points 3 yearsMay 2, 2022 07:36:03 ago (+2/-0)

Yes. That's tanks. The article is off by 40% on tanks alone. Reading further, it shows a 20% miss on total vehicles.

And where is the documentation for the 23000 dead soldiers? Lemme guess portable incinerators, right?

If you believe their losses are no more than the number of visually confirmed losses then I got bad news for you: you're the retard.

It's basically all BTG formations, do the math based on the estimated vehicles losses, add in a few suicide airdrops to Hostomel and other retarded moves like urban combat in Mariupol.

Bellingcat, aka known fucking liars. You can't even trust that those are actual photos of what they claim to be. They have been caught, several times, faking photographic evidence.

cope

faking photographic evidence.

lol as if anyone will take your word for it when you can't even research something this basic before calling it retarded

you're just throwing out accusations cause you lost the argument, that is not even a jewish name 🤣

Nigger, bellingcat faked photographic evidence of Russia's invasion of Georgia. They posted pictures of Russian APC's claiming they were at the Georgia border. It was later proven they were in Afghanistan and the picture was from decades earlier.

They posted photographic evidence that Russia shot down that passenger jet a while back. Later shown that Ukraine shot it down by mistake.

Bellingcat posted photographic evidence that Assad gassed his own people. The UN later showed the evidence was staged.

Bellingcat is in the UK and they post pictures of shit and make bullshit claims about what the pictures are. Just like the fake holocaust photos. Bellingcat is not a reliable source of information, even if they have pics.

Russians bragged about shooting down a plane before they realized it's the MH17 and deleted their shit, that's how I know your entire comment is garbage, all made up.

cope more

That's not a cope, faggot. Just so you know, Bellingcat calls QAnon "Russian disinfo", called the Steele Docier legit, and suggested Trump collided with Russia to rig the 2016 elections. But you believe what you want.

And, I noticed you didn't answer my questions. Why would Ukraine need $33b from the US alone if they were so successful? And, how is Russia able to accomplish every single one of their stated goals if the damage inflicted by Ukraine is as Bellingcat suggested?

suggested Trump colluded with Russia to rig the 2016 elections

MH17 was shot down in Eastern Ukraine. Show sauce of this brag. And please, make sure it isn't bellingcat.

Shot down in a conflict zone, no border control to speak of

muh other side of the border doesn't change the fact Russia took credit and then changed up their story multiple times
