From ammunition shortages to underinvestment in navies, the alliance is far from battle ready.

            Casualties aren’t the same thing as deaths or MIA. Casualties also include injured and those taken out due to sickness.

              right, casualties are a superset of killed and MIA, but we see that overall casualties on both sides are about even and far lower than mainstream western media pretends

                I don’t know what the guy commented on; if the issue was about the amounts being reported or the difference between the sides. There’s so much reporting on Russian losses but not much on Ukraine’s. I’d been wondering how they were fairing. Definitely a lot worse comparotively, if the numbers are accurate. Ukraine’s pop is like a quarter of Russia’s.

                The media usually reports casualties, not just deaths and MIA. Probably because it makes things look worse, but it’s also useful to know how many people can no longer fight.

                  Well you can see how they’re faring from what Budanov says in the link I provided above. The fact that Ukraine has to resort to using brutal forced mobilization while Russia hasn’t is another indicator of how things are going.

                  this you little fash?

                  In other words, consider getting help from north Korea, and see if you can dupe some Africans and Indians who were just looking for work, to fight for you.

                  I was worried that maybe you weren’t actually laughing your ass off, and might actually be mad or something. Luckily your second and third all caps LMAOs have reassured me.
