Defend the NHS and get rid of the Loicences. You have a surplus now. They actually are building up their navy again with the Type 26 and Type 31 Frigates, the Dreadnought class SLBM subs, and further upgrades to their carriers. I'm just asking they do the same to the Army
The Royal Navy is, at absolute best, holding steady at 19 surface warships, 6 attack subs and 4 Ballistic missile subs.

Aka a joke vs what it was in the year 2000.
 
https://youtube.com/watch?v=kI2F3O1fdW0 Lazerpig has a new video. Cannot watch rn. But it is about the British Army.
Why the fuck does he spend the first 10 minutes rambling about the T-90? He doesn't even say anything correct about the T-90, every single thing he said was incorrect, besides the T-90 being a development of the T-72. He can't even get anything about the T-72 right. The T-72 was not developed to replace the T-64, nor was it supposed to be superior to the T-64, it was designed to be a cheaper, simpler alternative to supplement the T-64, and then the T-80 in reduced strength divisions (Nato Cat. B divisions), and below. This is why no GSFG divisions had T-72s, nor the NGF, SGF, or CGF. I'd go on, but there's so much wrong I'd be here all day.

China does not innovate, it only copies.
Did you see the Victory day parade swine? The Type 100 family of vehicles literally don't have a parallel in other countries right now, there's no one else fielding network centric, drone integrated medium tanks, with dedicated fire support vehicles to supplement it, how is that not innovation?
Its troops are trained fairly well, but questioning orders, and taking the initiative is drilled out of them.
Doesn't understand the PLA award. Initiative is literally one of the most important things to the PLA. PLA officers literally do war games in which they must "accept the first blow" then "Throw an egg against the grindstone" which is to say regain the initiative. Individual soldiers in the PLA have a culture of seizing the initiative, and attempting to make decisive moves in battle. Don't believe me? Watch Jason Clower of Type 56, and let him tell you of the many times PLA soldiers have shifted a battle on their own, or have died trying. PLA orders are often even vague, and left open to interpretation (and sometimes even written as poetry because they're LARPers).

The true limits of China is their lack of a true Blue Water Navy and if that's achieved then it becomes much more concerning for America and it's allies to maintain dominance in East Asia
I would argue the PLAN is a blue water navy.

He presents himself as more knowledgable about warfare and tactics than the ENTIRE CHINESE ARMY.
-China doesn't innovate it only copies
Yes David, what the fuck do those moronic generals of the Peoples Libertation Army know about warfare or armament procuments. China actually doesn't understand anything about war and are just copying what other western militaries are doing, no technological developments here so long as you ignore their domestic AI, drone, tank, airforce, naval and nuclear technological developments over the last 20 years. Their entire military expansion and modernisation is actually all one great big cargo cult, China's copying the west but doesn't actually understand or comprehend why they are doing it. Unlike this fat alcoholic faggot who’s such an expert even his viewers can learn more from him from a single video about war than any officer in the Chinese army.
It’s quite amusing how Chudly David sounds when talking about things he doesn’t like.

🐷Dem Chanks can only steal frum da hu-whuite man!”
😡 🐷UNLESS ITS MILITARY TATICS IN WHICHCASE THEY CANNOT STEAL FROM US BECAUSE REASONS!!!!


Like, if they can copy iPhones, drones, ai etc… it’s not a leap to think they won’t copy basic military doctrine like ensure good logistics and don’t clump assets all in one place… like you know in the post Snowden and Wikileaks age, pretty much all of this is online in PDF format, right?
 
If not, Western Rome was on the decline from the Crisis of the Third Century.
The 3rd century? No, Rome was in decline long before then. The decline started when they put landless urbanites in their military during the Republic era. All the territory and power they accrued afterwards was really just inertia from the rise of their republic. Just look at the reforms Octavian had to put into power. He had to ban abortion for the upper class since they were causing their own demographic crisis.

A body that gets terminal cancer doesn't realize it when the first cancer cell decides to start splitting. However, its that moment that spells the end and not the solemn conversation with the doctor once the tumor's cells have spread to every organ in the body. The Crisis of the 3rd century was the moment when they knew it was all over but the body was still alive.

It really betrays how retarded they are.

Criticizing the CCP and the PLA for copying tactics and equipment that have been proven effective is retarded since this is something that all armies in history have done at some point. It is expected of a military to analyze the tactics and equipment of their adversaries and if there is something better than what current doctrine provides and is something they can implement then they will try to figure out a way to do so.

The Pig could focus his criticism on how much political influence the CCP has over the PLA, for example. Or do some comprehensive review of the Chinese military equipment being currently used in some conflict, like the war in Burma. But getting drunk, seething on the Internet and grooming teenagers is more important for David.

Putting landless urbanites may have started the decline of the Republic, the boundless ambition of the Republican aristocracy may have unleashed uncontrollable forces, I can't say for sure. But I disagree with the diagnosis that the Roman Empire died of a long-running cancer.

I think the Roman Empire was healthy (economic renewal, increased military organization, and more efficient state apparatus) in the fourth century, but got mildly sick (child emperors and political schemers influencing them), flubbed the respose to a few things (pissing off the barbarians instead of co-opting them or turning them against each other as the Roman state had in the past) and then accidentally shot itself in the head (loss of revenue and manpower creating a negative feedback loop of state paralysis) to the horror of annoying but adoring fans around it (barbarian obsession with proving they had Romanitas), leaving a braindead body to die of plague later on despite an adopted brother's best attempts to revive it. Said adopted brother later returned to his birth family's Greek culture before getting mutilated repeatedly by human-sized cockroaches until there was nothing left.
 
Yep. Without lend lease the Soviets may have legit lost in Stalingrad and Moscow and even St. Petersburg (Leningrad)

Lost the war totally? Probably not but they would have been in for an AWFUL time and it would have made WW2 last a solid 1-1.5 years longer.

Hell, it could have gotten so bad that the USSR would have signed a cease-fire with Nazi Germany or similar...
Moscow wad decided before US aid to the Soviets really picked up steam (most aid in 1941 went to Britain) and I'd say it wasn't a huge factor in Stalingrad or Leningrad either. What would be massively affected by no lend-lease is the Soviet offensives starting in 1943, where a lack of trucks for logistics away from rail lines would seriously limit their ability to exploit breakthroughs, along with fewer artillery shells and way fewer plains. So Soviet advances would be much slower and more grinding. I'd expect much more of Army Group Center to remain a combat effective force past Kursk, for example.

I too am a fan of Type 56's YouTube channel. I will play the counter argument role here and mention that this was the OLD PLA. We still don't know how bad things may be after years and years of Xi building his cult of personality within the military. During Xi's modernization efforts, there has also been maximal effort put into shifting the culture of the Chinese military towards unquestioning loyalty and obedience to the Party, and of course Xi himself. Members of the Chinese military in all branches and at all levels are required to take mandatory education on Xi Jinping's Thoughts on Communism With Chinese Characteristics (which is a several volume book series), reading all the books, undergoing lectures, writing essays, even at the expense of conducting military training. In fact, soldiers and officers who have not attended enough training or were not enthusiastic enough in the classes have had their careers harmed.

The Chinese military has changed a LOT since Xi took office. And the Chinese military has seen little actual military action. The last war they were in was the Sino-Vietnamese Border Conflict that kicked off in 1979 and trickled on into the 80s. What little action they have seen has been mostly against students who wanted more liberty, and chucking rocks at Poop Cricket soldiers at contested border areas with India. It could very well be that the PLA troops have lost that individual initiative that once made them successful. With the cultural changes in China and within the PLA itself, it could be that modern Chinese troops are more like Russian troops where they're no longer trained and encouraged to take individual initiative and are absolutely useless without a superior giving them orders.

The truth is we don't know what the Chinese are capable of today. Their technology is certainly interesting. But other than some border skirmishes with India and such, we really don't know what they're capable of today. Could be awful, or they have learned things.
 
he knows that the only group that could potentially dethrone him is his military

so he has to make sure they won't

a dictator lives and dies by his army, once u lose that, ur gone
As long as China doesn't fight a war against another country, he should be good.

This is actually a pretty fair take and anyone who goes "nuh uh LL saved Moscow" is a history revisionist and is exactly the reason why any Russian today would be skeptical of any claims they make.

True although the modern (post 1990) PLA is actually more opaque.

He's asshurt about China for some reason.

Yeah Aurelian no shit saved the Empire.

Then a couple of idiotic Emperors from ~350-407 killed it, in the West that is.

The East survived until technically 1454 although to be honest it was a zombie from ~1300.

LL probably shortened the Eastern Front by years....

In fact, I'd hazard without LL, the first Atom bomb would have ABSOLUTELY been dropped on Berlin.

Could the USSR won without LL? Maybe.

Could the Nazis have made the USSR scream and sign a cease-fire with the majority of European Russia remaining in German hands with no Allied support?

Quite possibly.

I don't think anybody disagreed with life would be harder. The issue is with attributing certain victories to LL before LL was even a large enough factor.
