@AndreyGodsonn@WarMonitors The ONLY ppl missing USSR are Putin and his gen of older Russians. They lost their "Empire" through their own economic mismanagement & First Class status as well.
WTF u think every non-RU ex-WP country does damnesest to support Ukraine? They dont want shitshow named USSR backq!
@AndreyGodsonn@WarMonitors You should first try living in Socialism, before trotting out with your ridicoulus theories.
Power hungry will always strive to be on top. Socialism does not have even basic checks and balances - thus it always would end up some sort of shitty dictatorship.
@AndreyGodsonn@WarMonitors Add, TOTAL, all-pervading corruption. Everybody stole what they could, "filling the quotas" was done blindly - truckload of fertilizer was dumped in a river when order of the day was to use it but not doing it would mean losing part of pay for fine. what growth can u speak of..
@AndreyGodsonn@WarMonitors Duh, what "fastest growth & history"? It could briefly compete until 50's or so thanks to slave labour. Is that the "metric" you see as positive?
Then came bunch of old men for "top dogs" & anything barely changed (Brežnev's era of stagnation example).
@AndreyGodsonn@WarMonitors Uhm.. Can you refrain from from bringing in "Capitalism" and "Communism" into discussion?
After 50y of USSR, PRC, DPRK, Cuba and whatnot, trying to construct their Communisms - should be clear those theories will not work, unless you are an ant
@AndreyGodsonn@WarMonitors "Statistical analysis" would need particular kind of math accompaning said analysis, not a claim it is one, without more supporting you than ideological conviction.
@Avalanche115@MarQs__ All ballistic missiles are 'hypersonic' by their very nature. Just buzzword bingo. Without nuke warhead inaccurate AF.
RU 'Kinzhal' is nothing more or less than air-launched version of Iskander. Smth like 40 been built.
@OldMillInn1@EuromaidanPress Wholly support you. Sadly I think public's ability for empathy is in correlation with their own parenthoods - without kids of ur own, u wont care as much.
When u love yours & imagine your kids having to go through torture chambers and rape - u'll find what true rage feels like..
@TeresaS13126658@EuromaidanPress Putin has, here and there. Got some such cases bookmarked (looked like qualified doctor drafted for a job of Squad Medic -utter waste of HR imho)
@KenScottOlson@EuromaidanPress Russian HQ knows how to enforce compliance. "Gonna torture/shoot/rape your kin should ya switch sides or betray us". Combined with "layered defense line's" where men behind yours have orders to shoot you, should you try to retreat..
Russian occupiers plan a spring mobilization of juveniles in occupied parts of Donbas. A new wave "nucleus" will form 2006-born youth. To reduce mobilization-related tensions in Russia, it also plans to mobilize deported Ukrainians alongside migrants.

BBC went to the front line in Bakhmut and interviewed soldiers from the 3rd Separate Assault Brigade.
"As a company we kill up to 50 enemies a day," one of them said.
⚡️“What time do you have? “As many as you need” - Putin held a meeting at the command post of a special military operation in Rostov-on-Don
At the end something extremely rare happens, Gerasimov cracks a smile

@AndreyGodsonn@WarMonitors Well, do not "what about West",then. It was you, afterall, who started yawing off about West. Worse, you felt need to go racist with "White West" for some reason.
