Armchair General's DonbAss Derailed Discussion Thread (Topics Include History, Traps, and the Ongoing Slavic Civil War plus much much more)

Not really news, they have been trying to muzzle him for a good, long while.
The CIA is still butthurt he gave the game away when he protested against them using his weapons inspections as cover.

Did CIA force him to work for RT too?

 

[Megadeath]

Did you miss that you've joined the other 95% of us that are on ignore? He had to work harder for it with you, but by gosh he's willing to work towards sticking his head in the sand. Or, maybe he's got it stuck somewhere else?

 

[Agent23]

I think somebody is trying to tell me something, but I see nothing

😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂

 

[Agent23]

So, what exactly did Reverend Elon do to piss off the Ukranazis so much and is that really a Tesla?
He didn't lick Elenski's ass hard enough or something?

 

[Megadeath]

I see nothing

He's litterally wearing blinders! "If I ignore everything I don't like or that disagrees with me, reality is exactly as I say it is!" I would love some people to keep this idiot in mind when they claim such is a "left" phenomenon. It's a trait common to all arrogant idiots, and there's plenty of those among any group regardless of political views.

Also, does anyone else find the habit of constant and significant edits annoying?

 

[Captain X]

It honestly just makes him look the fool. Not sure why he thinks we would care that he has us on ignore. If anything it's funny because it shows he can't handle us.

 

[ATP]

Note the piles of spent shell casings. Counter-battery fire is negligible.


A UkA Mortar Team bites the Dust.



Russia shows its growing collection of kills.



Russian National Guard clearing out any troublemakers to their operations.


Ukrainian Paratrooper Unit wiped out.

So:
1.Ukrainian artillery do not longer exist
2.Russian are destroing ukrainian artillery.
3.Did you read what those kgb idiots wrote ? search for former members of territory defense.THERE IS NO SUCH THING LIKE FORMER MEMBER OF TERRITORY DEFENSE - either they stil belong to that,or they never belonged.
kgb occupation changed nothing - ukrainian soldiers are still ukrainian soldiers.
According to your logic,if kgb occupy your state,local soldiers would become former soldiers.

kgb idiots behave as if they were Jesus and could create reality.

4.ukrainian unit wiped out.

So,ukraine have no artillery which still is destroyed bu kgbstan,which arrest soldiers which are not soldiers,or kill them.
GREAT,WHY THEY DO NOT ADVANCE,THEN?.

Typical editing of the action, Tank remains intact, backs up, and likely drew a bead and destroyed the BTR after the camera cuts off.



A dawning realization among Western Officials.



This is the reality of the war, the Russians' superior quantity of drones locate a UkA position, artillery pounds its flat, Russians move in and take trophies. Rinse and repeat.



UkA S-300 stayed in one spot too long and got pasted.

Rule when fighting a peer or superior adversary. Move your AD constantly. It is the Commander's or his Deputy's responsibility to ensure multiple new set up spots are selected daily and that his unit moves after radiating active tracking and fires. If you stay put, your foe can backtrack you and send a strike package. Also if a drone spots you, get out of dodge immediately. This how the Serbians kept their air defense in the game. Learn from them.

Ukrainian artillery destroyed,just like their AA,and in Marjupol BTR 4 certainly was destroyed and did nothing.
Why kgbstan widraw from Kiev then and declared,that they no longer want denazify Ukraine?
If half of what are you saing is true,Putin should arleady win.

He's angling for a promotion to the head of the FSB.

 

[sillygoose]

It's hilarious that they're trying to blame Ukraine when they literally admitted to the attack on the station.

Can you link to where they admitted the attack? You're the only one I've seen claim it, but without any proof.

 

[Abhorsen]

How wonderfully pathetic. Probably breaks some rule, too. At least most boards have a rule that says you can't ignore mods and admins, anyway.

It doesn't actually break any rules, to be clear. @Agent23 is changing just his experience on the site, and not seeing anything he shouldn't get access to (in fact, he's making it so he has less access). This is definitely allowed.

Understand though, he is still bound by rule 3 to obey the mods, so if Marduk makes a mod post, and Agent doesn't see it because of this and thus disobeys it, that's still breaks the rules just as much as if others do it having read the post.

Lol, are they complaining about me not reading their posts now, despite the actual explanation I put in as to how the Greasemonkey script works?
What a bunch of Tsunderes we have here, they must really miss me. 😂
In any case, if you note the @include statement, I am just blocking @Marduk on a particular thread, as well as few others.
Since he is massively biased I don't think he should have any modly privileges in those threads to begin with, but I am willing to take my chances.
Also, PMs are still a thing, as are those ban messages.

 

[Abhorsen]

This was done publicly so there wouldn't be reports, that's all. Apologies if you'd rather have me PM this in the future, can do.

No, no, I meant that if the mods had some problem with me, or if Marduk has something of substance not related to our little spat he can just send me over a PM.
Also, thanks a lot!

They deleted the announcement after the civilian deaths were announced.

Russia-Ukraine updates: 2 US veterans who joined Ukrainian forces missing

Why the link if it doesn't show anything about the question?
You don't have access to internet archive? I don't really take your word for it with this.

 

[prinCZess]

The sperging overreactions of some US and (more-so thanks to their long-existing fuck-fucking with speech) European governments (and corporations) to Russia-sympathetic or Russia-simping stuff is silly, probably counterproductive, and in violation of a higher principle of speech and information-flow (or, at least, alleged information exposure) that's even more important in wartime. They shouldn't be doing it and that they are speaks ill of them.

We've seen this play before.

That said, RT and the Russia-affiliated stuff is about as reliable as MSNBC or CNN or any of a hundred random twitter-posters who pasted a blue and yellow flag into their nametag and spout mirror-image BS about the situation.
...THough the latter do have somewhat the benefit of novelty since we haven't been hearing about the supreme greatness of Ukrainian military operations and leadership for the last two decades, whereas with Russia...There've been simping dummies for them in the states since they were still top-dog in the USSR.

Twitter Bans Ex-UN Weapons Inspector For Questioning Ukraine Narrative. Retired US Marine Corps officer Scott Ritter was ‘permanently suspended’ by Twitter on Wednesday after he dared to question the offical narrative about whats happening in Ukraine.

Twitter Bans Ex-UN Weapons Inspector For Questioning Ukraine Narrative

Twitter claims that USMC veteran and former UN weapons inspector Scott Ritter violated “targeted harassment” rule

newspunch.com

"Questioning the official narrative" is one way to put it. "Making deranged, baseless, and evidenceless accusations that the war crimes in Bucha were real, but actually the Ukrainians did them and not the Russians" is another, much more accurate way to phrase it. That sort of thing probably does at least bend some rules, particularly twitter rules that are already notorious for being calvinball-like in terms of standards and enforcements.


As I said the last time this guy and this claim came up, that claim is completely insane, because the sort operation that he is allegedly has, as far as I know, never happened in reality. Ever. There have been false flag attacks, of course, though perpetrators rarely target their own countrymen as victims. But even within that already rare category, such attacks are, as far as I can tell, exclusively bombings or small scale incidents (case in point), possibly because it's easier to blame whoever you want when most of the evidence has itself just exploded/bombing creates a bit of psychological distance, since of course you didn't directly kill anyone, it was just random chance what happened.

The sort of widespread spree of killing, when hundreds of people have been tortured, beaten, mutilated, raped, and murdered, one by one, has never once happened at any point in history, ever. And Scott is conceding that that is what happened, he's not saying the reports are Ukrainian fictions, he admits that happens but just claims someone else did it. It's a very, very implausible claim to make and requires very strong evidence, evidence which he does not have. The only claim he has is "well, Ukraine retook the town on the 31st, and we didn't hear about what happened until the 2rd", and "he took, there's a tangential, paper thin link to the iNfAmOuS aZoV bAtTaLiOn", which is way too little to prove anything of the kind.

Yup, and the same fools are drinking the same cool aid.
Hell, the US government outright admitted they are pushing disinfo and dubious, unchecked intel.

Yeah, sure, like the Kuwaiti Incubators, the Iraqui WMDs, the Tonkin Gulf incident.

But, back to the world of common sense and logic.
If you were the one running an occupation, and you decided that there are a bunch of people you need to kill would you just shoot them in the street?
Would you let the bodies just decay, stink up the place, attract street dogs and other carrion eaters and block traffic, and perhaps spread disease?
I mean, the health and safety and motivation of your own troops are things you'd like to safeguard, if nothing else.

Even third world African militias doing ethnic cleansing and the nazis at least dragged their enemies to secluded areas, then buried them in mass graves.

Oh, and there is the matter of fresh red blood on the ground after weeks of exposure to the elements and oxidization, with the blood still being reddish.

Sorry dude, but Bucha makes just as much sense as the mobile chemical weapons factories Bush's cronies were yapping about.

 

[Vaermina]

Oh, and there is the matter of fresh red blood on the ground after weeks of exposure to the elements and oxidization, with the blood still being reddish.

I assume you're a highly experienced forensic biologist who can determin the exact behavior of blood under the exact weather conditions in Bucha from a single picture then?

The Bucha allegations include a mass grave.
And occupation forces throughout history quite commonly use public execution and display of bodies as a means of intimidating locals into compliance or out of guerilla activity.
