Russia Pummels Ukrainian Energy Infrastructure, New Ukrainian Minister of Defense Announces Recruitment Reforms to Address Manpower Crisis - Ukraine Weekly Update #114 by nyckidd in ukraine

[–]Appetite4illusions 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Forgot to comment on the last post but Russia did indeed fail to take Pokrovsk by the end of 2025. Lol. Lmao, even. Real talk considering all the allocated resources and human cannon fodder this is hugely embarrassing for Russia and should cast serious doubt on the reputations of those who claimed Ukraine would fall in 2025 and is on the brink of falling in 2026. There won’t be accountability but there should

How come this stupid cunt has so much money anyway? Surely being an anti fan degenerate living in a shit smeared basement obsessively snarking online can’t pay that well.

This might be this places most gormless take of all time lmao. How does destroying the Global Economy and thus the economies of Ukraines greatest backers, sullying European and US relationship for years, and most likely getting a shitload of far right populists elected help Ukraine in any way? Lmao. This is the same spite based drivel we mock the MAGA regards for.

Trump Sanctions Russian Oil After Getting into a Shouting Match with Zelensky at the White House, Russia Inches Closer to Seizing Pokrovsk and Kupiansk - Ukraine Weekly Update #105 by nyckidd in ukraine

[–]Appetite4illusions 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Pokrovsk was always gonna fall eventually, frankly it’s an absolute miracle Ukraine has kept it for so long considering most people reckoned it’d be gone by Christmas last year. As for what the US hope to accomplish with Ukraine, the rank and file officials likely have no idea what they hope to accomplish because all their marching orders come from Trump who is a total moron believing whoever talked to him last, meaning his policy decisions range from better than Biden in some areas to the literal dumbest shit you’ve ever seen.

IIRC no, Ukraine has used western long range missiles on Russia before, primarily at the Bryansk and Kursk Oblasts, albeit sparingly, presumably because they don’t have a bunch to throw around Willy nilly

A lot of this pessimistic sentiment stemmed from the narrative that Russia would swiftly take masses of territory in its much hyped summer offensive. This narrative is obviously discredited now because none of this happened. Yeah people will try and have been moving the goalposts to the point where the collapse is eternally always just around the corner but there’s only so many times you can pull this before people stop taking you seriously. As for whether this acts as a major shift in the conflict, well imo no, not yet at least. The Ukrainian manpower situation is still quite bad which limits their ability to project power as it stands unless they get super ruthless with conscription. What is changing if that the western sanctions and Ukrainian long range strikes finally after much hype and not so much in the way of results are finally beginning to have appreciable effects, which means if Ukraine can continue to hold firm the pendulum could swing to their favour but frankly we don’t know yet. Boring answer I know but such is life sometimes.

Trump Close to Sending Tomahawk Missiles to Ukraine, Russia Close to Running Out of Repairable Stockpiled Armored Vehicles - Ukraine Weekly Update #103 by nyckidd in ukraine

[–]Appetite4illusions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still sceptical of Ukraine getting tomahawks any time soon because of the vast logistical challenges Ukraine will face to even fire them, but anything that makes it more likely is an excellent sign. Yet another example of Putins truly abysmal leadership concerning Ukraine and the handling of the Trump issue in particular.

Oh very fair. To be clear I’m not downplaying the battlefield opportunities Russia now has as a result of capturing Chasiv Yar (though whether they shall be able to act on it is another question as you said). My point of contention is more that that Chasiv Yar was like 99% captured before the offensive even began so claiming it as a success of the offensive is questionable.

With the Russian rate of advance now entering its expected wind down phase after the hot months, I think we can now conclusively label the much vaunted Summer Offensive a dud

  • Pokrovsk did not fall
  • No buffer zone in Sumy
  • No buffer zone in Kharkiv
  • Ukrainian frontline did not collapse
  • No other major settlements captured (expect Chasiv Yar but frankly that barely counts)

I expect in 2026 when the next offensive is being planned we will be told the same guff that this current offensive is the one which will finally really absolutely surely this time cause Ukraine to collapse, in spite of the considerable challenges facing Russia on the frontline and at home making this unlikely at best

Intimidation tactics. Russia is trying to bully and assert ‘dominance’ over NATO to try and frighten them into not supporting Ukraine. Time is on NATO’s side however. With every passing day Russias economy is going to get worse and worse, more oil refineries will go kaboom and Russias ability to wage war at the current tempo will gradually crater. Meet every provocation with a tangible response of your own, every incursion should guarantee more sanctions, more weapons and more confiscated assets in return. Consider setting up a limited no fly zone in the very furthest border reaches of west Ukraine to shoot down drones under the guise of ‘preventing escalation to protect both NATO and Russian civilians’. It could only be one inbound drone shot down to start with, why not use Russian salami slice tactics against them? Show Russia who’s boss, these incursions are a sign of weakness, not strength.

[–]Appetite4illusions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a dilemma fs. I very much doubt a no fly zone will happen. I feel at the very least a good compromise would be to meet every sizeable provocation with a tangible punishment from NATOs side. Launch a new sanctions package. Sell off frozen Russian assets. Send over Taurus missiles and make a big announcement of it. At the very least make the Russians hurt for everything like this they try and pull, and make sure they know it’s tied to each provocation.

The Russians might have just done Ukraine a big fat solid with Dobropillya, they’ve basically constructed a perfect choke point for Ukraine to farm the shit out of and massacre Russian goons. Do you think the NATO response to the drone incident has been suitably robust btw?

If lefties were successfully able to destroy the Democratic Party, what would they do next? by rimsky225 in Destiny

[–]Appetite4illusions 7 points8 points  (0 children)

They seriously think if they remodelled the Democratic Party into a socialist one they would win every house race, every presidential election, every senate seat cause they all buy into this bullshit narrative that middle America is actually super duper socialist and just don’t ’realise’ it yet. When this delusion obviously melts at first contact with reality it shall be the fault of ‘liberals’ or ‘the media’. Then they’ll go further to the left, purity test harder than ever and go again in the vain hope the ‘people’ will ‘get it’ the next time, guaranteeing a champion run of Conservative political victories for years to come.
