    @DarthOne , just a casual observation? Making huge bold letter headlines that fill up half the page on your posts doesn’t make your arguments more convincing. We can read the normal sized text of your posts just fine.

    In the context of everything going on and Russia's overall performance in Ukraine, the Fins are likely sharing some good kilju and laughing their asses off as they watch this.

    To be fair the T54 and T55 are technically post-WW2 era vehicles, but not by far, the first production models rolled off around 1948 or so. A lot of countries have kept around and modernized T55s they’ve had over the decades to varying degrees with various add-ons, kits, etc, the Israelis among...

    T55 doesn’t have laser rangefinder either, something taken for granted on modern MBTs and some IFVs as well. No ERA protection either. EDIT: They did though put a laser rangefinder on some later versions, designated T-55A in 1974. I would like to think they’ll try to fit what modern equipment...

    Of course with the caveat that the T54 and T55, unless given a do-over and upgrade, lack the modern optical equipment, night vision, thermal vision, commanders independent thermal viewer (CITV), and some other accessories common on modern MBTs. It can still certainly kill some vehicles, but it...

    The Ukrainians haven’t shown any interest in a ceasefire at the moment, and any discussion of one would have to involve them. Please note the actual transcript Kirby states at the end he wishes that Xi would reach out and discuss such a matter with Zelensky first...

    And you are an utterly reprehensible piece of shit and a disgrace. Hey, I'm happy to be called a cuck or whatever if it differentiates me from someone like you.

    Do you have links for these? I know about the roaming press gangs on the streets and also recruitment from prisons, but hadn't heard about the Inuits.

    Wow...just wow. I'm trying to see your POV here but I echo @Marduk , what ridiculous impossible standards of perfection and goalposts are you setting here that probably not one damn country on the planet could pass, especially considering hindsight is always 20/20? South Korea needs to have...

    Dude, note for the record I wasn’t being sarcastic or engaging in name calling, etc. You have a beef with the WEF, fine. Whether or not it’s your area of expertise, I’d assume you might know of a preferable alternative, assuming you know of any. If there isn’t any alternatives, or any as...

    Not to get off topic, but I've seen the reactions to Hakarl ("rotten shark"), I mean, I guess you COULD survive on it, but... Not familiar with fermented shrimp paste though, but the name in itself seems a bit foreboding. That said, one assumes the Russians are getting issued these rations...

    Sorry, damn ADHD kicking in again. I gave an explanation as to why I didn't think so highly of your meme about Benny Johnson, when you seemed to indicate I was attacking him and not stating my position or whatnot. But again, if you're just gonna shitpost memes, your choice. I'm not gonna...

    Just for the record, you asked me to post an explanation, I gave one. You're posting memes. But hey, your choice.
