Russian Invasion of Ukraine (2022): Thread 1 - Ukrainian Liars vs Russian Liars with Air and Artillery Superiority

[lady stoneheart]

i am a literal retard when it comes to international politics but i was wondering if someone could either refute or confirm my intuition for me. basically my only exposure to this war so far is people that i know irl jeering about this shit like it’s a Marvel movie for their personal entertainment or something, in which Russia is Darth Thanos while Ukraine is Katniss Potter. this Reddit wholesome chungus pro-war propaganda grosses me out. Russia invading somewhere is obviously Bad but it’s actually super sad that 18 year old men on both sides are slaughtering each other pointlessly, celebrating the deaths of soldiers because they supposedly said something cool before all dying horribly is ghoulish, and uncritically believing every single Ukrainian is actually a superhero who kills ten Russians before heroically dying happy to defend their country is retarded. rate me woman i guess

When do the Ghost and Iron Man of Kyiv get their own capeshit films?

Is it too late to have Robert Pattinson's film be renamed 'The Bat-Man of Kyiv,' and be set in Ukraine? Maybe add a scene where he signs up to fight for Ukraine on the Ukraine volunteers subreddit.

Lmao that is most certainly an Airsoft rifle
Real AR bolt carriers have a scalloped cutout where there are two gas vents, the gun also has some kind of lens protector for the optic presumably to stop BBs

Blyat, it's the Ghost Of Kiev's Lightsaber!

You think female propaganda soldiers actually get sent to the front? You probably think the female soviet snipers were real as well lol

If this to real life Girls und Panzer, I won’t be upset.

Why not do this with Chinese students instead? At least that would be partially justified, since so many of them are actual spies or PLA officers "going to university" on the side.

How to tell me you've never fired a rifle in your life - your arm is at a 90 degree angle and the butt stock isn't resting against your shoulder.

And when she's prone why isn't the rear sight up?

Because its clearly Ukrainian propaganda to encourage more civvies to take up arms.

Our institutions are run by idiots that take zero lessons from history.

IMO, its far worse than that. Many of the most influential people have taken the WRONG lessons from history.
There is a large group of neoconservatives and their liberal fellow travellers who believe in their hearts that
war with both Russia and eventually China is inevitable.
They have this weird notion of American Triumphalism where they see the US on the verge of total global
domination with the only thing in the way of it being Russia, China, Iran and North Korea. Its stupid, reckless
and delusional. But that is what they believe.

How many “Of Kiev”s do we have now?

And he runs over ruskie soldiers in his Dodge Batmobile

I was asleep and playing Elden Ring and shit so what happened in Ukraine today?

It’s a staged photo op that could easily be used for recruitment or propaganda? How can you not see this?

He's autistic, but it's shows that propaganda is to get normies to becomes cannon fodder.

Maybe war really is base, neets rise up.

They’re trying to demonize the US so Taiwan is more easily taken.

>Trying to demonize the US
>Already demonized
>The entire middle east hates us
>US reputation as world police is deeply condemned
>...I can't sneed

When Ukraine are sending their girlboss commandos, they're not sending their best.

MFers are simping for the "Iron Man of Kiev" and the "Ghost of Kiev", but I'm still holding out for Ukrainian Spider-Man.

A soldier climbed up a 30 story building with a sniper rifle on his back. He has been dubbed "The Spider of Kiev"

holy shit the multiple attempts to gain headlines by making up shit is exceptional, get sympathy points instead of pretending you have a chance

"The Iron Man of Kyiv" was originally supposed to be a 4chan meme that mocked people believing anything. (Yes, this tweet is fake, it's a meme. Before anyone here complains)

The end of history didn't come by itself once the Wall fell, so a brave Hero will have to make sure it happens!

CNN is working pretty hard to manufacture some consent.

Really need to fuck with them over only having 37000 votes. That is only like 12 viewers average for every county in the US. One in every 10k people.

Shit wait I’m trademarking that

 

[Balr0g]

So let me get this straight. Ukraine just handed out firearms to the general population and now all of the stores have been looted? Definitely Russia's fault.

And the American Left cheers it on that civilians are getting handed guns in defense of their home. Why are those people against 2A again pls? I am confused
