From Yaroslav Trofimov (Wall St. Journal):

The bodybags of untrained mobilized Russian men are starting to come home from Ukraine — including to big cities like Moscow. Even the Z propagandists are getting upset. Here is the 28yo former head of dept in Moscow city gov’t, drafted Sept 23, killed Oct 10.

The political board can't get enough attention for them so they come here. So administrators stop them, some don't. Even though they are not very smart, they seem to know which administrators will allow their sewage here.
There are actually posters that have a different view then you liberals. I've found that the posters on the Political board are more reasonable and willing to discuss different views but this thread you are called a Putin lover and other disparaging names. It does appear that the OT board has more book smart individuals but the Political board has way more street smart posters.

The board that frequently gets on the “Mike Lindell has the goods” train is the more “street smart” board?

Cherry pick much or do you just divert attention when you have nothing else.
Some of you act like this conflict is some kind of video game. They get excited over who took who's piece of land and how many people are dying. It's sickening to observe.

Once again almost nobody posting in this thread is liberal. You would be hard pressed to find maybe one or two people who didn’t vote for trump 2x. You lose all credibility saying the political board is in any way reasonable or willing to discuss anything outside of extremists conspiracy theories. It is the right wing version of Democratic underground but maybe even more extreme. Well probably not but close. At least try to figure out what an actual liberal and conservative are. The idiots on the PB are not good sources to go off of.

I believe that’s “sleep smart”
Hilarious it’s the PT that’s the bastion of free thinking and lack of name calling according to the poster who enters the OT thread by calling us all liberals without much politics discussed in here by the regular OT posters.

Why would Russia need to evacuate people from Kherson to Russia soil if Kherson is now Russian soil?

BKR posted a link but basically (at least in Germany) the Catholics were afraid of also being persecuted as some priests were dying communion to SS persons. So the Church struck a deal that was basically we won't do anything against you so long as you don't do anything against us.
Catholics as a whole were never fully on board with Nazism (there were lots of individual exceptions of course). Even a totalitarian state can only move so far so fast, snd the Catholic Church was too big a bite to take at the time.
The Nazi government took a hands off approach as long as the Catholics didn't kick up too much of a fuss. If the war had ended differently they would have crushed or coopted them like every other group.

And none of them use foul language, call posters names, or (blush) wish death and pain on others in the most graphic way possible. No, not the Poli Board.
And because all those things are explicitly against board rules the admins very quickly respond to violations. /sarcasm

Interesting bit in today's mobilization update by @CITeam_ru, and an indicator of a shift towards wartime economy / industrial mobilization.
Chelyabinsk factories have shifted production and started to make personal equipment such as sleeping bags, boots and thermal underwear.

I’m going to tell you a parable about Tom.
Tom likes shagging telegraph poles. It's his guilty secret.
Thirty years ago, when Tom was at school, people took the piss out of him. He was Polefricker Tom, and lonely. Nobody knew, and nobody understood how sexy those telegraph poles were. Each night, he'd sneak out and find a fresh pole to drill a hole in.
Then, along came the internet and social media. Suddenly, Tom found his people. He found others who knew the allure of a sexy XY-BB1 (40ft model). They talked freely, relieved to find others like them. They exchanged dating tips, swapped locations of the hottest new models, even organising meet-ups and gangbangs near the filthiest old poles going - twenty men in a big circle around a gigantic BA-101-XL, drilling holes frantically and working themselves to a froth.
Over the years, new members joined, and the network grew bigger. They were Tom's people, and he didn't bother talking to any others. Every day, his entire interaction was with people like him, people who thought he was normal. They might not even mention pole-shagging for a couple of days sometimes, since it was just...normal. Ten, twenty years with his group, and Tom had forgotten that what he was doing was...weird. After all, there were now hundreds of people active in his little group, with little cliques and sub-groups, and thousands of former and potential future members.
Then, one day, Tom forgets himself. In the middle of a busy street in Cardiff, Tom whips out his drill and starts fricking a particularly sexy new KY-3LL(2022) telegraph pole that's been put up just outside Tesco Express.
People are horrified. The police are called. Tom is shoved in a tiny cell, and can't work out why the frick he's there. It's normal, right? He's spent twenty years in a group where that's just...what you do.
The papers pick up on it. His bemusement is laughed over, and Tom can't work out why everyone is so interested and so reviled by what he's doing. He simply can't understand it. Everyone he's ever spoken to for two decades or more has been of the same mindset, and he's completely cemented in his feelings that he's perfectly normal. But with new restrictions, he can't get back to his old community; he's back in the real world.
And the real world has started calling him Polefricker Tom all over again.
