🤡This is a circus! Three idiots thought they could storm the positions of the 63rd Brigade in the Serebryansky Forest by wearing anti-drone cloaks… in broad daylight.

In reality, they just became an even more visible, clumsy, and downright comical target — one you could spot from space. So pilots from the BBS unit, the 107th Battalion, the 105th, and the 55th all swarmed these fools. Even artillery joined in. The result? Obvious. ☺️

      A single nuclear warhead sent to Kiev and there won’t be a single loss to the Russian army. A peace offering would be on the table the next second…

          A few years ago I’d have agreed with you.

          With America firmly in Putin’s pocket now and Europe dragging their feet on resistance, the possibility that they could just glass Kiev and get away with it is growing.

            France would glass Moscow and St. Petersburg without a second thought. Britain would as well, but they may have US interference, same for Germany.

    I’m completely pro-Ukraine, anti-invasion, anti-Putin. But. I can’t take joy and amusement from these three conscripted young people marching obliviously to their death. The emotional tone of this post and many of its comments are fucked up.

          My point is them being spotted and killed is a good thing for the Ukrainians. I’m not going to blame people for being happy about it. Also you’re taking a lot of agency away from the Russians here. A not insignificant number of them are contracted rather than conscripted, especially the ones on the front.

            Regardless of whether they are conscripts or mercs, the whole premise of this post is that they are deeply ignorant. And their ignorance is being exploited to the detriment of both themselves and others. These three people are clearly not people that need to be demonized (*) and dehumanized, except so that we can feel good about killing vulnerable victims on the other side before they can kill us.

            *) Criticism and demonization are not the same thing. It is absolutely fair to be critical that they are not sacrificing themselves for others. To mock them as “clowns” and insist that they deserve to die for being stupid is not criticism, it’s self-manipulation.

    These dipshit Russians think they are Harry fucking Potter with their thermal cloaks? They should be for use during low-light ops, not broad daylight shit. Glad they are dead, go back to Russia you dumb fucks

    Guys, we need to ban AR-15s. Guys, ignore the fiber optic drones for less than a thousand bucks. Guys, we really need to get this AR thing done and dusted.

        Good luck when the maga drone fleets roll out!

        Edit: fly out, fly out - that one is my bad.

          Good luck shooting down a small and relatively fast moving object 50 m in the air with an AR-15. And why would MAGA need drones to kill people in their own country?

          How did you even make this about some completely unrelated stupid US-American shit under a video about Ukraine?

            I would never suggest that you should shoot at a drone, it’s fucking stupid.

            Why wouldn’t they? My MAGA cousin just bought a drone, fiber optic wire and everything.

              What else is this comment supposed to imply? Waving the gun at the drone and kindly asking it to turn around?

              Because they could just shoot people instead of using drones? Drones are used in Ukraine because they provide a good overview of the front lines, are able to also defeat tanks, among other things, and can attack targets inside enemy territory from a distance. Of course I have no idea what a civil war in the US would actually look like, but MAGA is not fighting for territory (or not yet, I guess), let alone with tanks and in trenches.

                My point is the news has you convinced that disarming yourselves is the answer, while I have (admittedly anecdotal) evidence that MAGA is indeed arming itself with drones.

                I don’t really care what anyone thinks, you can assume whatever makes you feel safe.

                  Do they also have explosives to put on the drones? Drones alone won’t help. And no, “the news” hasn’t convinced me of anything, my brain did. If most people don’t have guns, there isn’t any need for more guns. Amazing how that works, right? This concept works perfectly in most of the world. So disarming is the only logical answer, if everyone is forced to give up their guns (or at least the more dangerous ones, like AR-15s).
