That article starts from photo of Ukrainian soldiers firing a literal WW1 maxim machine gun while their PM talks about "modernisation" and the libs gloats around about modern AFU and weaponless Russians.
Remember that most of them actually believe ua pravda when it says that russians fight with shovels
They still are, every article from it is intensively upvoted on lemmy
Suffered some morning brain damage reading some of the comments in there sheesh
how did these people even end up on here. Like, you won't find me hanging around in neonazi forums for sure. But that would be equivalent to what those people are doing.
Note how reddit invader cheers up the redditisation of lemmy.

7 tanks, 7 downvotes -> The downvotes are from the tank drivers -> The tank drivers are libs -> libs are tankies
You see, the purpose of the Western tanks wasn't to achieve anything on the battlefield anyway, it was to keep the crews safe so they can come back and downvote these posts
it's so funny to see lengths NAFO bots will go to turn everything into a victory.
a tank was supposed to reach x, but it got blown up halfway through? "But the crew (according to our unsubstantiated speculation) made it out! the mission was a total success!"
a pmc fielding an army of untrained convicts took over the most fortified city in europe after systematically dismantling the defenses put up by dozens of thousands of ukrainian servicemen? "we inflicted casualties! 1 to 182748 casualty rate favoring the defender because reddit says so! total win!"
the counteroffensive gets obliterated by KA-52 and fails to even get close to the first defense line? "probing attacks! We got their attention! Huge victory! Heil Hi... ehrm, Slava Ukraini!
I am actually hoping that part of libs will be converted to Dengism by lurking on Lemmygrad 🙂
Marvels of the Advanced Fascist weaponry.

Liberals so adamant on financing these weapons for fascists while this much money should be spent on improving their own financial conditions and quality of life.
Yepp. I fucking hate it how we created 100 billion for the military out of thin air, but do not have money for housing, feeding the poor and education.
We can't do this because of the poor Bundeshaushalt, we can't have that because the Bundeshaushalt must be balanced, but then it comes to the Bundeswehr and the US imperial managers and the whole rainbow of factions make blue skies rain.
In what way are Dutch and Danish taxpayers being forced to fund said palace? The point of sicaniv's screenshot seems to me to be that western taxpayers are being given no choice but to fund a war they aren't involved in, after 10–40 years of austerity and being told the state can't afford basic services, suddenly there's a bottomless well of cash for tanks.
Something which has never been known to happen in the modern west, specifically in the United States or Ukraine. Nope, not ever.
houses are generally significantly less expensive than tanks, but in this particular case you'll have to do the research yourself -- feel free to share your findings so we can all be aware of how many parts per million of the annual Russian budget was spent on Putin's house
Houses, sure. But we're talking about a mansion the size of a small town where they threw out all the marble they'd already isntalled because it was the wrong colour.
I think you forgot the part where Putin twirled his moustache and laughed manically while watching.
What is your source for that claim? That sounds rather cartoonish
Yes, but actually Jaun Guaido is the Jaun Guaido of Russia.
I have it on good authority that Juan Guaido has just been elected Tsar of Russia.
I see 9(?) tanks. So how many are left? I have something like 100 leopards in my head?
14 newer ones and 88 previous model i think
Totally casual numbers btw
As the news of the counteroffensive's failure started pouring in, there was some idiot, I want to say Pistorius but probably not him, saying the tanks weren't german, since they weren't operated in Germany by germans, and that they were instead Ukrainian.
I think it was Baerbock who said that. Idiotic mindset anyways, just idiotic.
