>>57534937>What happened to the previous 30,000?
>>57534937Who the fuck would actually join Fagner after their tactics in Bakhmut? I've seen enough photos of countless dead in open fields to know that joining them is tantamount to just shooting yourself in the head. You'll just be used as meat for the grinder. Unless they're offering half a million Ameribucks, why the fuck would anyone join?
Any other companies doing shit in Africa? Like Somaliland or something? I don't want to go to Ukraine.
>>57534937Wasn't it Prigo who said he can't take Bakhmut without 60,000 fresh mercs?
>>57534937> What happened to the previous 30,000?Express fertilizer delivery to Ukraine. They’re not expected back until this year’s grain harvest comes in.
After 6 months of service wagner troops get released from military service. it has nothing to do with deaths.
>>57534999As westerners with a comfortable lifestyle we mostly can't or don't want to understand that 5000 USD in exchange for dying for the great leader is a good deal in most parts of the world. Russians are mostly dirt poor and will do anything for very little money.
>>57535037Lol.
>>57535059Not sure what are you loling at
It's funny how this war will never fucking end because they'll keep sending people in and Ukraine isn't getting enough support to push them out. Forever war. Going to be like Iraq.
>>57535056Wasn't usa offering 35000$ to join military? That's less than 5000$ a month
>>57535037My sides imploded.
>>57535019>Runiggers already fighting HATO polish mercenaries in Leopards. And winning.
>>57535086Iraq was bunch of sand people vs first World military.
>>57535091$5K/month income makes you basically an oligarch in Russia
>>57535110Yeah but in this case it is gonna be Russia refusing to give up and just sending more and more people in and hoping it works. Guess they're relying on China supplying them. Meanwhile I don't see many Western nations trying to get to producing new equipment and ammo for themselves and Ukraine.
>>57535113In most parts of world this kind of money makes you rich.
>>57534937This is finally the moment, zizsters. I am of joining Wagern. Glory to Russia!
>>57535105I no longer laugh at drone footage.
>>57535124West nations can't produce equipment without Russia. Unless China sells them material
>>57535091In an army that's 2 millions strong with barely 10% seeing combat in their career and barely 1% KIA, 5000 $ per month would be a good deal.
>>57535134>In most parts of world this kind of money makes you richt. pajeet
>>57534937Will the MoD even let them keep recruiting? I though they were clamping down on Prigozhin
>>57535152Yea but they get cucked by nigs
>>57535086The US didn’t lose 40,000+ KIA in a single year while in Iraq. Nor did the US feel the need to drag out the M48s or M59s because they were running out of Abrams or Bradleys.
>>57534999>I've seen enough photos of countless dead in open fieldsYeah but here is the neat part - they didn't.
>>57535143Time to bow to the bear then, I guess
>>57535037>“train“ them for 5 months and 29 days than sent them on suicide missionWould make sense when Wagner says they died while decommisioned!
>>57534955The dog stuff really fuck me up a bit; dogs are supposed to be man's best friend, and they often times go out of their way to live up to that. Even Wolves and Coyotes will do their best to avoid people, even as far as giving a warning if you run into them (compared to say, cougars, who will actively stalk and try to kill you because they're fucking devils). But for them to be left without any care to the point where they must eat human carrion, and the fact that there is that much carrion to begin with... it's just a turbo-fucked situation. One that goes against what you'd normally see as normal, even in nature.
>>57535188Well no one other than usa provoked Russia so it's not really my problem. I will let Americans solve this one
>>57534937>russias-private-wagner-army-targets-30000-new-recruitsWell, they "Targetted" Bakhmut and didn't achieve that....soooooo, does this mean they won't get 30,000 more mooks either?
>>57535091Yea, but american soldiers are oders of magnitude less likely to get killed during their service.
>>57535037>>57535067The vast majority of Wagner penal soldiers died. There are reports of survivors that actually made it to their contract end date but got forced to stay in.
>>57535200>provokedLol, lmaoYou dumb vatniggers always say this, as though Russia is like some dumb animal that only reacts and cannot think. Well actually, that is the truth. Now we simply have to put it down like the rabid dog that it is.Russia attacked its neighbors. It attacked Georgia, and it attacked Ukraine. It has a fucking long history of attacking its direct neighbors whenever they realize being a run down Communist shithole is not worth the squeeze and decide maybe westernizing even a little bit is preferable. But Russia is the ultimate crab bucket, and will do anything it can to pull them back in.The sooner we can wipe Russia off the map the sooner every country in its sphere of influence can be uplifted.
>>57534937Why? Last time I heard they announced they had 1 mln US citizen volunteers after they released some promo. Did they lie?
>>57535182Yeah
>>57535246butwhataboutbutwhataboutbutwhataboutNuke DC for all I care, vatnigger. It would make my life better, then I could see the retaliation wipe your shitstain off the map too and we can get on with our lives in the post nuclear paradise that is the world sans Moscow and DC.
>>57535182At this rate Ukraine will be overrun in 14 days
>>57535238No Bakhmut?
>>57535269Would any of you mind dropping one on Berlin too? Would do us some good desu.
>>575351822 more weeks perhaps?
>>57535238Ironic.
>>57534937>Russia's private Wagner army targets 30,000 new recruits by mid-MayIronic, Ukraine is also gonna target them.
>>57535226>>57535246Should we make a distinction between that then? Covert warfare vs regular warfare? Are we comparing apples to oranges or oranges to apples?
>>57535037If you're talking about their convicts they are actually pardoned the moment they leave their prison. Prigozhyn tried to hide that info from the convicts as they basically have no obligation to keep fighting and they get their freedom immediately.
>>57534955Is there evidence (like video, photos, real story ect.) that dogs eat or are fed copses?
>>57534937Not even going to check, but I doubt Wagner is a fucking clown shoe compared to a normal PMC
>>57534999>countless deadThose are piggers))))
>>57535037yeah
>>57535168Neither did Russia in Ukraine, they probably have closer to 60k+ KIA
>>57535138I never found it funny, but I know what you mean. It's just sad now, especially when it's just some poor fucker trying to hide in a foxhole. It's this strange uncanny valley between being impersonal (like arty) where you are just dropping bombs on blobs, and highly intimate like a sniper where you pick your target and get to see every detail of them. There's going to be some mad PTSD from both the operators and the victims.
>>57535037lmao
>>57535238sooo... are the musicians going to fucking capture bakhmut now or not? they have been near the city centre for TWO (2) MONTHS now LMAOOO
>>57535246and what has the kgb been doing since fucking 45? WHATABOOOOT WHATABOOOOT THE MUTTS isn't helping your case here
>>57534937>signing up for wagner>everMay as well shoot yourself as soon as you set foot in ukraine
>>57534937That's bullshit. Prigozhin hiself said they're going to get downsized after Bakhmut is captured (((in two weeks)))
>>57535621"Whataboutism" is a buzzword for hypocrisy. If you are MORALLY against something russia does, you are obligated to be morally opposed to anyone else doing it too. That said I don't know what you are replying to, just hate the word
>>57535441There's a video of a cat eating a Wagnerite.
>>57535195Dogs in eastern Europe are often stray animals living on the street.When people live around them they have an easy life - having thier dog fun and being fed by literally everyone.When people suddenly disappear (like during a war) they are left on their own, so anything that looks like food might as well be food.Nothing philosophical about it, it's just how nature works.t.eastern european
>>57535156You don't need to be a Pajeet to comprehend that 5k will make you top 1% in all but 25 countries on earth.
You will never be a real great power. You have no historical accomplishments, no modern military, no future. You are a degenerate kleptocracy twisted by vodka and corruption into a crude mockery of a political system.All the “validation” you get is two-faced and half-hearted. Behind your back people mock you. Your adversaries are disgusted and ashamed of you, your “allies” laugh at your pathetic displays of strength behind closed doors.Nations are utterly repulsed by you. Thousands of years of evolution have allowed countries to sniff out frauds with incredible efficiency. Even trannies who “pass” look uncanny and unnatural to other nations. Even if you manage to get a successful western company to invest in you, he’ll turn tail and bolt the second he gets a whiff of your diseased, violent ambitions.You wrench out a fake smile every single morning and tell yourself “russia stronk”, but deep inside you feel the demographic collapse creeping up like a weed, ready to crush you under the weight of your own mediocrity and despair.Eventually it’ll be too much to bear - you’ll pack up the conscripts, unleash the propaganda, write your “rebirth of an empire” victory speech, and plunge into a country you should steamroll in days but winds up destroying the last shred of your national dignity. The world will witness this, heartbroken but relieved that they no longer have to pretend you are a country worth respecting. They’ll financially bury you to help hasten the inevitable, and every passerby for the rest of your existence will witness how little you actually contributed to this world. Your civilization will collapse and be assimilated into other states, all that will remain of your legacy is a few paragraphs in a history book detailing the genocides, purges, poverty and suffering you created while threatening everyone with nuclear annihilation. This is your fate. This is what you chose. There is no turning back.
I don’t want to make another thread and further pollute the board, so I’ll ask this here. The past week has featured some really intense fighting in Eastern Ukraine, and the details have been rather hazy. What exactly is happening on the front now? Is any side making progress, what are some likely areas to look at the next few weeks? Please leave emotional bullshit out I want straight answers pls, I also understand this stuff isn’t an exact science.
>>57534937>What happened to the previous 30,000?Returned to port under their own power.
>>57535859Personally I'm morally against the existence of Russians. I think all Russian "people" should be liquidated.
>>57535441
>>57535441Yes.Very fat dog on the front lines. What do you think it eats? Spare MREs? No such thing.
>>57536465
>>57536472
You either have to join Wagner or go fight in the Somaliland conflict, what's your choice?
>>57536465>>57536472>>57536486What mechanisms are in place to identify dudes like this? Are dogtags even commonplace on mobiks?
>>57535859Hypocrisy is one thing, but with whataboutery, the message is either implicitly or explicitly along the lines of: You've sinned in the past and/or present therefore stop opposing our current sins because it's not fair if we don't get a turn".
>>57536502Teeth xray records. DNA test. But you need to narrow down search pool first.
>>57536524Is that shit going to happen or are the Ukrainians just going to pile them up and dump them somewhere? I’m not saying that they have to do anything (because that’s not their problem) but are there 3rd parties that take care of that?
>>57536466>Very fat dog on the front lines. What do you think it eats?The bodies of dead Russians.
>>57536495On which side? I'm actually surprisingly confident I'd be able to stand my own when fighting on the side of Somaliland. On the side of Somalia and friends? That's more complicated.
>>57536644Decided by a coinflip. I don't think anyone would opt for Wagner if you could just choose Somaliland.
>>57536495>according to bongs 75% of Wagner convicts will die
>>57536550They are likely to do the bare minimum documentation, then throw them in a "unknown" grave, have them marked as "missing presumed dead" when the conflict ends.It's war, forensics comes second. But yes they have forensics teams, who are likely to not find a whole lot.
>>57535195You must be American, as am I, or west EuropeanThe USA had very few stray dogs sure to rigorous control going back 100 yearsDogs are often seen very differently in the rest of the worldBottom feeders, opportunists etcI've been to South America and would feed a stray dog some scraps from an outdoor restaurant in a villageThe owner got mad at me and cussed the dog awayTo them, I think if a person is dead, meat is meat
>>57536446Ukraine has been counter attacking in the east since March 3 or 4. Russians have been attacking the same places they were a month ago but now in the north of Bakhmut as well. Ukrainians have been pushing them back and keeping them at bay and reinforcing their units in the east frontline. Because of this there's been no great areas took, just Russians attacking and Ukrainians defending and Russians failing to break through.
I found a Wagner merc on Instagram who was posing with his gear and shit. Not gonna link it but I asked him some questions and the dude was a total wanker
>>57537312Ah Damn I just checked again and he set his Instagram to private.
>>57537290Russia is running out of gas in Bakhmut because Putin has decided to crush Wagner.Politics overriding military concerns.
>>57537312My polite advice to Wagner is to fucking DEFECT.There's no point in working for Russia anymore.
>>57535156Nigger that's more than 4 times the average salary in the richest Central European countries
>>57537357Wagner should just join Ukraine. They cannot win in Bakhmut fighting for Russia's side, so they might as well join the winning team.Offer to switch sides.
>>57537370>Wagner should just join UkraineAnd waste a perfectly good opportunity for a coup?
>>57537370I’ve always wondered what would happen if Prigozhin came to the west with open arms and 30,000 wagnerites. Would he be spared?
>>57537385Putin is wise to Prozakobitch's power schemes and Wagner is out of favor. Kremlin would rather have PMCs who just mindlessly follow their propaganda line and don't criticize the leadership (albeit for not being brutal enough).Not to mention Russia is collapsing and mercs want to be PAID.
>>57534937Let's hope they join and end up like their fellow ork.
>>57537391Depends on his timing. If he switches sides at the absolute worst time for Russia (during the Ukrainian counteroffensive), he could win a comparatively light prison sentence for himself and probably a considerable number of his men.
>>57537417Post-script: MORE likely, Ukraine could simply bribe Wagner to conveniently "step aside" during a Ukrainian counteroffensive. They're technically not attacking other Russians, they're just doing a "goodwill gesture", lol.
>>57536486>a blown out mobik has whiter teeth than meit's over.....
>>57535441Yes. And it's surprisingly adorable.
>>57537475>See animals scavenging>Get ideaI unironically favor mass-dropping Common Blackberry seeds on Ukrainian soil. Wild berries will nourish the Ukrainian people, and they do NOT need to be cared for. They're wild so they do just fine.
>>57537475Death and new life
>>57537501What kind of dogs are those? They're so cute.
>>57537513No clue, some sort of mutt
>>57537537Post-war, these scenes will be surreal in retrospect. Ukraine will be prosperous again. Not just in domesticated plants but even the wild areas will be sown with edibles. No one will go fucking hungry in Ukraine ever again, even in the middle of nowhere. The wild edibles will spread and cover the land.
>>57535182Ukraine is literally just a Zelensky holograph and CG at this point. Russian army just too busy doing some celebratory dedovshchina to advance.
>>57537573(Seriously /k/, the advantage of wild food is that it spreads and you don't have to do much beyond just putting it in the damn ground. In a war-torn country, it's very useful to have food that plants itself in subsequent generations).
>>57537500What about all the unexploded ordnance. Wouldn't want lil Yuri to become a cosmonaut while picking blackberries.
>>57537603>"Advance for Russia, comrade. Advance deep in the rear axis."
>>57534955The Blob of Bakhmut
>>57537625Every sector will be inspected for mines in advance, then the seeds will be planted. Inside of a year, all the wild areas of Ukraine will be covered with edible plants. The majority of Ukraine isn't urbanized, lot of farmers are dead, let the wild plants feed the people until the agricultural sector rebuilds itself.
>>57536502>dogtags
>>57537573>Ukraine will be prosperous again>againWasn't Ukraine the poorest country in the continent of Europe before the war?
>>57537690By prosperous, I mean at least back to pre-war conditions and ideally way beyond them.
>>57535206he looks like a vampire
>>57536522it's usually even more retarded than that because russians will try to use whataboutism on europeans with americans as the example
>>57537690>be under russias sphere of influence >be poor as shitmany such cases
>>57535056>As westerners with a comfortable lifestyle we
>>57535195Carrion is fine for doggos and your teentarded views are gay. Nature wastes nothing and turning vatniks into dogshit is far play for their relentless shilling on MY precious /k/ to which the most gentle appropriate response is genocide.
>>57538734This but I hope they close this shithole like tomorrow.
>>57537475I wouldn't mind some h*ckin' puppers nibbling on my corpse after I die. Who cares, you can't feel it anymore.
>>57535138I do. Every live vatnik is another excuse to defile MY precious /k/ which act proves them ontological enemies of civilization. No one not Russian with any grasp of their history regards them as other than vermin. They must fall like the Soviets whose anal dribbling begat them or they will continue to pollute 4chan.
>>57536463Based moderate.
>>57535156you know those old tearjerker commercials about>most people on earth are living on less than $5 a day, if you donate $100 we can scale that into a village eating for a monththose ads weren't lying, the vast majority of the earth's population lives in SEAsia, quite a lot of the rest lives in Africa and South America.Most people on earth still live as subsistence farmers. We like to think of ourselves as having industrialized and moved past agriculture, but in reality that's only the Northwestern hemisphere.
>>5753735718% of Americans make over $100K.
>>57537647Why would a farmer be stupid enough to die vs. bugging out with his expensive equipment? Tractors and trailers are a fine way to escape even when roads are clogged because they can go cross-country.
>>57535091That's a bonus, not base pay, allowances and special pays plus other benefits.Junior enlisted have basically no personal expenses except the Charger at 39% interest and marrying the single parent stripper.
>>57535143>West nations can't produce equipment without Russia>West nationsStreet shitter detected.
>>57535859I'm morally against Russia being Russia. Anyone else being Russia, ditto.
>>57534955perro waton
>>57535037ah yes, all 3 surviving """volunters"""
>>57539049You can literally become wealthy as well though. Start personal betterment, get out of a dead end job and start maneuvering towards something worthwhile for your time. If you’re retarded the answer is some sort of trade.
>>57539049>At least if you are poor in the third world everyone else is tooPoor third-worlders still have to listen to rich assholes in their countries, but with nowhere close to the same level of basic necessities or purchasing power as most lower-class Americans. It still sucks to be poor in America, but it sucks slightly less than, say, living in a shanty town built on top of a garbage dump in Southeast Asia.
>>57541165Not having to worry about elephants smashing your home or having a leopard or large snake eating your wife and kids is nice.
>>57536736By virtue of it being a coin flip somaliland would still be better. Wagner would mean you should just put a bullet in your head as an easy way out.
>>57534999>Who the fuck would actually join Fagneryouknowwhatimsayin
>>57537690> Wasn't Ukraine the poorest country in the continent of Europe before the war?> source: my ass

>>57535056>ComfortableActually I'm a late millennial so I vill own natzing und ich vill be Frühstück.
>>57535056I make $500 in 10 hours and I’m only middle class. Is it really that bad in Russia?
>>57535441It’s not that large a leap of a conclusion>war torn frontlines>corpses everywhere >stray dogs around the area are all really fat from over eating something
>>57542842>$500 in 10 hoursIf that's after professional expenses and taxes, that's great, as it means you should make around 250K a year
>>57537475I personally wouldn’t mind a sky burial since I’d at least be of use to some animals. But that shit is pretty grizzly to anyone who doesn’t know about it, not to mention there are people who have to chop you up a bit to make it easier for buzzards to get to everything.
>>57535195The only thing that fucks me up is that all these dogs will get AIDS after this much russian mincemeat.
>>57536495Can I surrender as Wagner?
>>57536465>>57536486HATO PROPAGANDA !Comrade Conscriptikovich is fine he is just sleepy! Aftet short rest he will get up to fight of evil Hato-Invaders!

>>57539049Doesn't bother me most of the time.
>>57535031Just imagine the products bakeries who make using grain exported from the Ukraine
>>57543088So the first army was destroyed two days before the invasion?
>>57536472Aww, puppers
>>57534937Wait what happened to the others?
>>57543088>Colonel Douglas McGregorAh, the king of the fifth columnist retards.
>>57540289This is retarded. You are retarded. This is not something everyone can just go out and do anon, you need more than just motivation to succeed in America or everyone would be doing well and not motivating themselves in dead end corpo jobs.
>>57537385Rosgvardiya alone is something like 300k men. Prigozhin can't do anything to Putin. I honestly think he's a dead man walking either way
>>57536550Ukies have some storage facilities where they keep the vatnik corpses in the hope that they can exchange them for the bodies of their own soldiers after the war.
>>57537500Thats a terrible idea. Bkackberries are very invasive and will kill many native plants. However, as they are super fucking thorny, drop a bunch behind russian lines and force them to retreat thru the briars
>>57538762those puppers will grow up with a taste for other human monkey flesh. Post WW2 there was a genuine problem with dogs attacking small children/toddlers or even grown men if they were isolated trying to kill and eat them. post war there will be organized culling parties with lots of work on their hands
>>57534937Have no fears we got conscripts for years!!
>>57543286>new challenger approaches
>>57542850Maybe if I’m workin my ass off, I’m per diem staff tho. Maybe I need to be less lazy.
>>57543794>dead vatnik storageimagine the smell
>>57544185
>>57544250they seem quite peaceful
>>57543288I strongly disagree, I do agree that not everyone can do it, because not everyone is physically and mentally equipped to be successful. If you’re physically fine and your brain isn’t being constantly dampened by drugs/alcohol then this shit doesn’t even take that much effort. Within 3 years an able bodied man in america can be making 70-80k a year.
>>57534937maybe in the people field
>>57544250That one shirtless guy near the front looks surprisingly intact. What killed him?
>>57545795Blast overpressure. He looks fine, but he either snapped his neck hitting something in a transport, or his internal organs are pulp, and he just got 'lucky' that he wasn't hit by shrapnel.

> russia has loads of man power those shitty Ukrainian neo nazi scums r gonna feel its wrath once the summer hits and its invading time again
>>57544024>did I ever tell you the definition of insanity
>>57544024Who the fuck is this guy even
>>57536550>but are there 3rd parties that take care of that?The red cross does this kind of stuff but they need to have permission from the nation those soldiers they are identifying and Russia won't do that because MIAs don't get a lada/bag of potatoes. I would guess due to how many MIAs Russia has and them not even trying to bury their own dead it will be like Verdun mixed with Chechnya. Ukraine will have to build their own version of the Verdun ossuary with heartbroken babushkas travelling using their own money to try and find word of their conscript sons just like Chechnya.https://i.4cdn.org/wsg/1679257836785148.webm>The Douaumont ossuary is a memorial containing the remains of both French and German soldiers who died on the Verdun battlefield. Through small outside windows, the skeletal remains of at least 130,000 unidentified combatants of both nations can be seen filling up alcoves at the lower edge of the building
>>57546784I just asked him relatively benign questions like>How old are you mate>Why did you join Wagner and not enlist>Do you know how many Wagnerites are dying?>What do you believe is the cause of the invasion?I even tried to be nice and he called me an American snake. I’m not even American. Ah well.
>>57536465>>57536472>>57536486>mfw 'dog eating corpses' is russian propaganda and it's actually russians cannibalizing themselves
>>57535167Most jodie boys are white, though.
>>57535138I don't either. I hate Russians, but it's weird to see fat redditors laugh and call them orks in these vids >>57537672Dogs prob ate those too
>>57536948I see what you did there, Donner boy.
>30,000 private armyAny government that doesn't get worried by this has already completely lost it. This is warlord tier.
>>57537500>>57537647my nigga ukraine may be poor but they are still a world-leading agricultural producer and exporterthey are not going back to some pre-neolithic style foraging for wild berries for survival what the actual fuck LMAO
>>57535091Fucking ESL
>>57536463I like you, despite your liberal views
>>57547506thats quite literally what you get for being nice to a russian, they are so subhuman its unreal
>>57535604Except you as a drone operator operating on your own soil dropping bombs on people that INVADED should feel justified, and you can see this because most drone footage show the operator "toying" with the katsap receiving. You don't get PTSD doing what you like anon.

>>57535441>Is there evidence (like video, photos, real story ect.) that cats eat or are fed copses?
>>57535239Russia? Lying? Say it ain't so!
>>57553530Yes. Even for domestic ones, when owner dies if the corpse isn't found for long enough the cat will decide its food. It actually is pretty well documented in autopsies because it can erase evidence if the owner was murdered. And from what I've been told by people responding to those types of calls, when your average crazy cat lade is found, she's not recognizable anymore.

>>57534955>>57534937Wouldn't 30000 dead imply a crazy good kdr in favor of the Russians? Ukraine has lost way more than that in the same time period.
>>57554128Source?
>>57554134I remember reading recently that Ukraine is starting to conscript police and also some politicians talked of around 200000 or more losses. Wagner bearing the brunt of Russian losses and only losing 30000 would be rather odd.
>>57554156>Ukraine is starting to conscript policeall while Russia is mobilizing children's neurosurgeons
>>57534999Propaganda works anon. As long as they set their standards low enough they’ll find more coals for the furnace.
>>57554156What makes you think that in a year long high intensity war Wagner is the only group taking casualties on the Russian side? Wagner is not even the only group in the Russian side in Bakhmut.
>>57554156>Wagner bearing the brunt of Russian losseswrong>only losing 30000 would be rather oddalso wrongI'll let you figure out why it's wrong for yourself, but don't be afraid to discuss with your fellow students if you're stuck.
>>57534937>What happened to the previous 30,000?They got btfo
>>57554156Lol.Snowniggers aren't even trying anymore.
>>57554962>there is a market for second hand wagner patchescapitalism finds a way
>>57535178this. they are not aware of their own losses
>>57554156If you aren't here shit posting. Op is an idiot.Recruitment of more people on both sides isn't necessarily related to casualties. Take fagner. They offered 6 month contracts. They've probably lost a couple hundred or even a few thousand to that. Also consider they're small. If they wish to conduct larger operations they would need more personnel. Fagner still has a presence in the mid east and Africa. Flip to Ukraine. They're gearing up for offensive operations. Offense requires more than double the personnel than defense if you wish to do well. They need to swell in size if they wish to be successful. Both sides have eaten casualties in large numbers, but it's ridiculous to tie recruitment needs directly to casualties when both sides have stated the need for more personnel for offense or backfill duties.
>>57544414This, I have many family members that had the same shit start as I did but most has gone to be middle class with strong stable families. Those who didn’t (I included) were retards who didn’t have the mental discipline to succeed. The US has soo much opportunity for those that are willing to learn and work hard but the fact of the matter is many just arent mentally competent enough to achieve it. Even with me being a total tard, I still make $60k a year and live comfy. Being dumb and lazy and still being able to achieve a decent lifestyle is absolutely alien to the thirdies and most of Europe aswell

>>57537475Eat well pupper!
>>57535441Yes. It's in my webm folder. Sadly I can't find it because I have over 500 webms of dead Russians. So here is one of a cat

>>57555442
>>57555023>insane how much pride they get from that sledgehammer videoIt legitimately feels like something out of an anti-war novel.Really, who would look at something like:>”They showed videos of deserters being brutally executed without a trial and bragged about it, for general praise”And think about it was anything other than on the nose anti-war propaganda.
>>57554128If that was all russian losses sure, but that is just bakhmut.
>>57535441Every war ever?Street dogs are common everywhere outside of western Europe and NA, they are disgusting dangerous animals that will eat corpses and snatch children
>>57557227Reality is stranger & greater than fiction
When will they find out in the long run it will be more beneficial to them to put sensible competent commanders instead of sending ethnic minority and convict human waves under the command of drunktards and toadies and still managing to lose?Pic related comes to mind.>Inb4 they killed, expelled or made everyone competent flee the country.Come on, no matter how much you ruin a nation, there must still be some competent people left, is only by default.

>>57554962>>57554977Where might one purchase one of these used, bloodied wagner patches?
>>57557421never. if they used meritocracy instead of loyalty based systen, the war wouldn't even happen, much less so disasterously
>>57536495>Somaliland>The functional part of Somalia>Broke free from the suck>Militarily competentTime to become a war tourist and upload shit shit from GoPros over Starlink to get funding for the unit. Infinitely better than being Wagner in Buckbrokemoot.
>>57555442Cute rabbit.
>>57558131Prigozhin doesn't want you to know this, but Wagner PMC patches are free. You just pick 'em up from dead bodies and you can take them home. I have 73 dead pidor patches.

>>57557227Wagner is an almost unbelievable group. For all the faults I take with Blackwater or it's decedent groups I cannot imagine them publishing an official statement bragging that none of their troops had been raped in prison.

>>57535859When I say invading a country is wrong, for example, and somebody says what about Iraq, it's not likely to be about hypocrisy. Because I haven't said Iraq was good. I didn't say anything about Iraq at all, not explicitly. Which is the point, because they want to make excuses or at least steer or convolute the conversation away from criticism.
>>57536446Bakhmut is slowing down. The Russians are both attempting to encircle it and making small gains inside of Bakhmut in the north and south. They tried crossing the river but got BTFO. The Ukrainians are having to use reserves to keep the roads open. But there aren't a ton of Ukrainians actually inside of Bakhmut. Last I heard was 3000 at most.Vuhledar is great. Strelkov is having a hissy fit about it. The Russians can only approach it from a couple of roads thanks to extensive minefields and very little in the way of viable positions to take on the sides while approaching the town. They go up piecemeal in armored columns, get stopped, panic, and drive off the road into minefields or try to drive back down the road only to find that Ukraine has used artillery to set mines behind them.Avdiivka is hot right now. Russia is pushing hard in a lot of different directions at once with a lot of armor, trying to stretch the Ukrainians too thin to stop a breakthrough.

>>57564060>it's not likely to be about hypocrisyIt is if you don't think invading iraq/panama/grenada was wrong. If you do think invading those countries was wrong, the operative word would be precedent, not hypocrisy
>>57535086At the rate things are going 1,000,000 dead Russians will be a dream.
>>57538734based moderate.
>>57567257Precedent works. There's really no framing of the GWOT to me that isn't a roiling cascade of disasters and you could argue this is one of them, since I do believe Putin considers it to be one of his justifications. Here lies some more Glavset pitfalls though. Putin will be spoken of as if he is simply a consequence of something and not a person who acts with more agency than almost anyone on the planet.
