zalushnyi not capitalizing the r lmao

HE IS HIM i will just drop his piece in full

on engagement & hype: made an effort to screenshot the avdiivka hype posts and then paid close attention to how those accounts reported that the russians took the slag heap and moved up to the railway, putting all of avdiivka at threat.

most didn't even mention it, but if they did, the engagement ratio was about 1:8. meaning you get 8 times the engagement if you stick to hype and talk about meat assaults & body bags, chasing every little doom on russian telegram you can find to make it a post.

a deadly miscalculation of 2022 was that air defense assets would negate the use of jets for both sides. by now, russia is throwing 1000 guided bombs per month, to great effect. orikhiv, the town on the ukrainian side behind robotyne, will be gone soon. all those red plane symbols? multiple bombs each. a massive strain on UAF

you will see me post some "negative" content from now on, and i promise you i want nothing but the best for ukraine. things need to change, and this miscalculation needs to be talked about (and other ones)

🧵thread on fake "ukrainian body cam footage", as there is another one making the rounds. again released by RUDENKO, who are responsible for some of the dumbest fakes of the war.

i will go over previous bullshit from RUDENKO and then explain why this one is cringe as well these fake body cams are produced to obviously demoralize as in "this will happen to you, resistance is futile, russia is inevitable".

vatniks will then tweet "so sad that we are so successful and have to kill so many, poor ukrainians forced by the west 😔😔😔"

okay holy shit the likes from new york times writer ivan nechepurenko are fascinating. especially how they play out over time.

yes, a lot of it is pretty hardcore vatnik stuff, but what's shocking to me is how... dumb they are.





so first off, it goes from grayzone types (this includes people that are knee deep into bucha denial, which he is not) to some of the dumbest uninformed drivel on this platform. i guess i expected some level of sophistication when someone is associated with the new york times

🦈 inflatable shark toy thread for navalny fans. how we got here.

i want to make something clear: i have met some fine russian people after february 24th.

they quietly support without seeking attention. they instinctually refrain from main character syndrome. hell, there was even a very sincere russian woman married to a ukrainian soldier among them. on her mind?

russian bombs, rockets and shells. not russian corruption. she never mentioned it.

there are other corrupt countries on this planet. corruption explains nothing.

🧵DD was an avid ancestry dot com fan before the genocide arc and had a period where she claimed yugoslavian heritage to all her friends. that connection was dubious. but back then she didn't claim russian. and those friends don't like her anymore. so ya

you wouldn't believe how not-russian DD is. according to her friends, she was more in a bernie social circle until she started a weird "slav squat" fetishization arc in 2020. i think the tankie shit was always there but i don't know.

buddy it's okay. it's over

and there was no "doxxing". it's called journalism. in this case, credit to @MalcontentmentT

I almost forgot that apparently DonbassDevushka just blatantly admitted to fraud in fucking writing to tens of thousands of people. Donations received as charity, now it was to run the channel. textbook lmfao

feeling cute might post more screenshots later

Reminder that a lot of pro-russian political commentators in the West used this woman as their "source in Donbas".

This was an American woman throwing laughably fake stories onto Twitter. It is as weird as it is heartbreaking how gullible these people are. They know nothing about Ukraine. Nothing.

Ukraine is one of the least anti-Semitic countries in Europe.

The conflict is not divided by language use.

In fact, one of my closest Ukrainian associates is a russian-speaking Jew from the East of Ukraine.

okay so i had finally time to listen to the "Donbass Devushka Podcast". listen to the "russian" woman speaking. especially at the end of the clip, where she laughs and her "russian" accent completely disappears. what do you think? could this be a monumental LARP? okay apparently this has been an ongoing thing where people think it's all fake. i didn't know, but all these guests on the podcast didn't fucking notice?

short RAGE thread: there is a video going around of Ukrainian soldiers getting ambushed. it's fine. nobody dies. they react and deal with it. it's uneventful. it still makes my fucking blood boil. they dismount from a wooden truck bed. aaaaand... THAT RESEMBLES MYANMAR REBELS MORE THAN A NATO PARTNER. for some reason western governments are incredibly BITCHMADE about supplying decent armored personnel carriers & infantry fighting vehicles to Ukraine. modern ones. good ones. vehicles that protect & fuck shit up.

my thoughts on may 19th: "the funny polish dude is putting together a team of meme dogs this will be great, let's start up paint" it also led me to graduate from paint to photoshop to video to 3D. which helps me take my mind off things and gives me a sense of actively contributing instead of doomscrolling. but here comes the kicker. none of that is significant. here comes the neat part:

yoo my man is really on the front. this is Said Ismagilov, Ukrainian Mufti, ethnic Tatar from Donetsk. I will attach some reading material on Ukrainian Muslims. but first ENHANCE: based

1/2 A very sincere post from me on the recent execution footage of Armenian soldiers making the rounds. With footage like that, reading about the event and watching maybe a screenshot is enough. There is no information to be gained by hitting play. Do not flaunt your thick skin 2/2 with stuff like this. Protect yourself. If you are new to raw conflict infospaces you can avoid severe trauma with this neat little magic trick. Get control over your morbid curiosity. If things have unclear titles, always have the sound turned off. Win by not hitting play.

foreign volunteer is a little shocked about how many russians they have to kill around Lyman russians trying to get out in small groups just getting cut down over and over again

POV: you fucked around and find out what NATO doctrine means this post was blessed by NATO JESUS: Giulio Douhet

First Russian Liberal if the military officer tries to mobilize your friends, just shoot him, the only russian opposition i can respect

fellas, i have a volunteer from ukraine in my replies, maybe someone wants to throw the wolves a snack so we can set the hero up )))

also, official protocol is that we express smiles as ")))" now, it's the law

🧵A Thread: With the unprecedented amount of pictures of abandoned Main Battle Tanks (MBTs) I wanted to write up this summary of what happened to the 4th Guards Tank Division - Moscow's most elite & prestigious armoured division. Their T-80U variants were again abandoned. (1/5) lol, lmao (2/5)
