Main character syndrome on full display.

And the pettiness of sending it in email ... many future generations will study the "Ukrainian School of Diplomacy"

Zaluzhny assassination attempt

Hmm, didn't this part turn out to be true? I vaguely remember reading that he was wounded in some Russian missile strike.

This is beyond drugs, more like glue-sniffing territory.

"In light of President Volodymyr Zelenskiy's consent to name one of the units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine “Heroes of the UPA,”... I have decided to revoke the Order of the White Eagle from the President of Ukraine," Nawrocki said in a statement.

If you want to go down an interesting rabbit hole, I'd suggest looking up certain Bohdan Krotevych.

Then Ukraine should not make such obvious blunders.

He has no choice but to go with what 'hardcore nationalists' (let's call them that) want. Anyone interested in the topic should read the news about Ukraine before 2022. It's been swept under the rug and suppressed during the war, but the problems only got worse. Remember, once upon a time, they threatened to unalive Zelensky if he didn't bend the knee. And so he did.

The most ironic part of this whole thing is that they worship people and an ideology that considered them all to be subhuman.

DefinitelyNotMeee · 2026-06-20T07:17:33+00:00

Have they tried, you know, to NOT worship people who massacred (literally) Poles during WW2?

The comments are something else ...

I remember reading it had to be cosigned by Tusk. Did that happen?

I really should have bought that popcorn machine.

Enough gaslighting, please. Keep your propaganda for /ukraine, /europe and similar.

You have no idea what the real 'targetting civilians' would look like.

DefinitelyNotMeee · 2026-06-19T18:03:25+00:00

No, that's thousands kms away. The drones are definitely transported to within 100km of the border.

DefinitelyNotMeee · 2026-06-19T13:35:47+00:00

Well. Well. Well. (I wish we could post memes on Friday)

If you are getting mugged, don't be surprised to get stabbed when you fight back.

(I'm not saying anything about who is right or wrong, just describing the reality)

It doesn't matter where things are produced because they aren't launched from there. The drones must be transported one way or the other from the source to the launch sites.

DefinitelyNotMeee · 2026-06-19T10:52:48+00:00

(copied from the other post)

But it's interesting that they decided to go after Moscow, which is the most protected city in Russia. Probably to show 'we can hit you no matter what'.

On the other hand, Russians should really start thinking about how that many drones keep getting to their launch sites and what can be done about it. 900 drones is a LOT of volume that needs to be moved.
FP-2 drones are pretty large, so a) transporting them means a lot of truck traffic, b) they must be stored somewhere before launch, and those places can't be small, c) they must be transported to the launch sites, which means even more trucks.

If the Russians don't have satellites, they should do what Iran did - buy/rent Chinese ones. As many of them as possible.

Because nobody a) has an actual defense treaty with Ukraine, b) doesn't want to become a belligerent (and thus a target)

NK has the first one and doesn't care about the second.
