Are they practicing losing?

[-] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 26 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Reminds me of Kung Pow

Pay no attention to Wimp Lo, we have purposefully trained him wrong… as a joke.

Also

I’m bleeding, making me the victor.

Let’s see how you like your foot to my face style!

[-] agent_flounder@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

I mean they're getting pretty good at it tbh.

😂😂😂 Dude, who loses 200k well trained soldiers in "Practice"?!?!

[-] d33pblu3g3n3@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

They don't care. Russians will send every living being they can get their hands on to the grinder if that means they "win".

It's the Russian way.

Unfortunately for #Ruzzia, the US has been developing its weapon systems over the last 60 years for that exact scenario.

Shit is going to get wild in a few months when the F-16s start eradicating Russia's air defenses.

Those were eliminated on day one when Ukraine shot down an airplane full of them because Russians forgot air defense is a thing to take out before you send in limited resources.

The rest of them? Vlad got drunk and wound up on the front line instead of the drunk tank.

[-] interolivary@beehaw.org 4 points 1 year ago

drunk tank.

Ie. a T-72

[-] NegativeLookBehind@kbin.social 22 points 1 year ago

Practice is supposed to make you improve, not fail miserably, again and again.

[-] lemmus@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago

This is an Elon Musk level of delusion.

[-] Szymon@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 year ago

Where do you think he gets his taking points?

[-] lettruthout@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

"He" in this case works both ways!

[-] lemmus@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Via Starlink, unless he’s on the Ukrainian frontline.

[-] Rhaedas@kbin.social 18 points 1 year ago

For a superpower they sure need a lot of practice.

[-] Jaysyn@kbin.social 22 points 1 year ago

The USSR was a superpower. The Russian Federation is a mafia-ran gas station with nukes.

[-] Ooops@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

They are praticing keeping their population calm and supportive no matter how rediculous the losses. And they are very successful at that. So they know they can send more millions to die for the smallest gains.

[-] TheMightyCanuck@sh.itjust.works 18 points 1 year ago

Getting BTFO by Ukraine is embarrassing...

Do they really wanna risk the same with fucking Latvia?

[-] Cyclist@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

They're practicing getting their ass kicked, next they'll get their ass kicked in the Baltics.

[-] magnetosphere@kbin.social 16 points 1 year ago

Who is this jackass? I assume he’s just another obnoxious pundit whose job is to stir the shit, like we have in the US.

[-] Bakkoda@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 year ago

That's called News™️ to you buddy.

[-] Whaler_Shaver@lemmy.ca 15 points 1 year ago

ie NATO. Not going to happen.

Don’t quit your day job, Russia

[-] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 9 points 1 year ago

Who gets Kaliningrad afterwards?

[-] Diplomjodler@feddit.de 5 points 1 year ago

We're not taking it back. We've had enough trouble with the GDR.

Czechia have already staked their claim. There was some hilarious memes floating around I think 6 months ago

[-] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 8 points 1 year ago

Yeah, BS.

Honestly that's the word count this guy deserves.

[-] DarkThoughts@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

Failing that "practice" miserably and wants to take on all of NATO.

[-] glimse@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

If the subtitles are correct, lose the quotation marks in your title. That's the gist of what he's saying but you're misquoting this douche and that helps no one

[-] LaFinlandia@sopuli.xyz 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Good point, fixed. The title was from the translator's post.

[-] glimse@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Thank you. I don't think you (or the translator) were had ill intent but I do think accuracy is important when reporting on war

[-] The_one_and_only@feddit.nl 4 points 1 year ago

In that case it is an immensely impressive amount of practice.

I never could go to the gum for two weeks in a row, they are already at it for almost two years!

[-] ikidd@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Someone needs to send him a statue of a miner.
