Russian invasion of Ukraine | Fewer tweets, more discussion

This guy is a Scottish-Aussie doing a full critique of military hardware with a touch of humour. He made me :lol::lol::lol: hard while explaining perfectly why the T-90 is shite, and the video aged extremely well since September.



Russia can delete their own tank industry after watching this.
 
Why listen to experts. Matt Le Tissier has cast his usual wisdom…



I've noticed there is something highly in common with accounts that feature that pink flower emoji next to their name. Anti-vax, anti-'woke' people who spend all day talking about how they hate people 'virtue-signalling' for a cause and how they see something or are in on some secret the rest of society does not know. Ironically they are the sheep they accuse everyone else of. I've never seen the self-proclaimed independent thinkers not have the same opinion as each other.
 
Plus I would like to know who Le Tissier means when posting about "not sure why that's so offensive to so many people". Who was offended? Sounds like he is just making something up to update the desperation to appear persecuted.
 
Do you think 80s Afghanistan is a good model for any other country? Not just the utter devastation during the war itself, but what came after wasn't fun either.
The point is I don’t see how anyone could settle to live in this Russia, or a puppet state, under Putin. It’s absolutely a cause worth fighting and dying for for the Ukrainians. We are far along now from what people died for during Euromaidan or during the recent Belarussian waves of protests.

One of the replies…

(I’m trying to separate ‘Matt Le Tissier, the one man goal of the season scorer’ and ‘Matt Le Tissier the idiot’).

 
Best thing for putin to do now would be try to end war on somewhat face saving terms (crimea as part of russia, recognized dnr and lnr, no nato as minimum), then step down and have a yes-man put in his place to rid of most sanctions, but proceed with personal agenda in background.
There's just no way he can go on after this, we're probably looking riots level of opposition in terms of going back to dealing with Russia with putin in charge and i don't think he was ever going to be satisified with just Ukraine.

It would be the best thing for him to do but there's no way he's going to do that. He's an idiot.
 

She's got some guts, that lady. Seems like Man Utd has found his outfit for tomorrow.

Edit: FFS, the Caf autocorrect doesn't let me mock Macron, so clarifying it's him I meant to reference...
 
For everyone under the impression that Russia has secret reserves of troops and equipment they can keep pumping into Ukraine.



 
China would be stupid to be involved considering EU and US make up around 33 percent of their exports according to Wikipedia
 
He won't even want or be able to occupy Ukraine long-term. Guess is his objective is to secure recognition for the separatist republics and Crimea while exacting a formal no NATO agreement. Don't see him moving anywhere else.
Surely the goal is to put a puppet in control of the country.
