Is this standard for a "special military operations" Vlad?

[–] [email protected] 27 points 2 months ago

It's not the "special military operation", it's the "military challenged operation".

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

Not that kind of special.

Hope this works from the client I’m using on mobile. It doesn’t support preview, so fingers crossed.

Pootie Tang!

I heard they had elections already and they voted to join Ukarine.

Lol, this is a parody of the rushed elections in Ukraine.

Da comrade. Western society is weak. Can only get 100% of the vote. In glorious mother Russia, we vote extra hard.

Was he not supposed to be reporting on truth? Is Putin showing discomfort of this?

[–] [email protected] 46 points 2 months ago (1 children)

That's not how they do that over there. You speak what Putin wants to hear, or you don't speak.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 2 months ago

That turned out really well for them in the beginning of the war, when Putin was told that they'd win over Ukraine in like a week or so.

The Governor of the Kursk region better stay well clear of any open windows…

Yeah....he should stay away from windows and tea.

That's a good chunk of land Ukraine just annexed.

The people's republic of Kursk?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago

No, they're a bunch of splitters. It's the Kursk People's Republic.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I think they mean that 28 previouslty occupied settlements in Kursk have been de-Nazified and reincorporated into the Kyivan Rus by their rightful owners.

Sucks to suck

Pretty sure that video is from the 8th of August? If so, the information presented here is outdated (not that the Russians were credible in the first place). Or has there been a more recent briefing?

Thanks for the clarification!
