Turns out the convict meat shields were even too much of a liability for Wagner. Being "out of troops" doesn't mean you can't raise/train more, it just means that the current force you're deploying is no longer combat effective for any number of reasons. The winter operational pause was enough time for them to at least plug the gaps.

Problem is, if he wants to mobilize more conscripts, sooner or later he's going to have to start dipping into manpower from the Moscow region, which is where his political alliances are. They've been avoiding conscripting from those regions like the plague.

Putin every few days: What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in KGB, and I've been involved in numerous secret raids on Pro-democratic activists, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I'm the top sniper in the entire Russian Armed Forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the World and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You're fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire nuclear arsenal of the Russian Federation and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You're fucking dead, kiddo.

Aw that's cute. Meanwhile, nuclear war games involving NATO use TENS of thousands of soldiers. We can literally train more soldiers to be vaporized than Russia can come up with in the first place.

The West collectively shrugs.

This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 86%. (I'm a bot)

> Russia has begun a giant training exercise on its intercontinental ballistic missile system with 3,000 soldiers, in a sinister show of military might.

> Vladimir Putin's forces are training on the Yars missile system, which can carry multiple nuclear warheads and can reportedly hit targets 7,500 miles away - with the US and Europe within range.

> Mr Putin has said he wants to make Yars, which replaced the previous Topol missile system, the centrepiece of Russia's ground-based nuclear warchest.

We get it, Putin, you’re an insane dictator who is so desperate to make a name for yourself that you are willing to start another world war.

So you have 3000 troops, that don't impress me much...

Show of strength? Bruh, this is just insecurity on a state level. It's the government equivalent of writing a Reddit post about how you're a sniper with over 400 confirmed kills.

Oh but the main argument is India as a country helping Russia when they are invading another sovereign nation make it so that redditors don’t have a good opinion of the country.

I thought in like december he was running out of troops and was using prisoners n all https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2022/12/23/russia-troops-wagner-convicts-ukraine/

I was reminded recently that the french police motto isn't "Protect and Serve", this is the US police motto.

In France the motto is "Law and Order". Quite not the same approach.

Also I'm surprised an US newspaper is shocked by France beating communists, usually they'd be congratulating France for that. :s

Yeah I read them it’s not racism if it’s the truth and targeted at the Indian government as I said. I said the government inaction in regards to women’s rights and also collusion with Russia make sit so that there is a bias in reddit toward the country and not its people.

No. He means that we all have problems, and rather than just using those problems, which are caused by a small % of the population of said country, to attack specific nationalities, you should spend your time more effectively.

Damn he's desperate

Protesters have weak skulls, study finds. Replicates give strong statistical evidence.

It’s not really menacing when his army is being beat by Ukraine, though is it.

Must have pointed the telescope through your moms window

> Zaporizhzhia, one of five Ukrainian provinces Russia claims to have annexed.

Glad to see Reuters saying now that it's five regions annexed. Crimea is Ukraine.

It's all over the place already. My Samsung phone and Sony headphones are made in Vietnam.

Do you live in Israel?
