I get that but I really want to know what gravy and Creole tomatoes have to do with war, even if it is from the liquified brain of Hunter S. Thompson.

Sun is up in Kyiv. The shooting in my neighborhood stopped. I can hear birds. Feels like an end of a vampire movie. Something tells me this night was important. And the enemy will remember this night too. #StandWithUkraine

Russia constantly gets their shite pushed in. they could barely hold off the nazis if it werent for a few snow storms and finnish snipers.



Seeing how the Fins teamed up with the Nazis to help keep the USSR from further trying to invade their country, I highly doubt the last factor in your sentence.


They did, however, get their shite pushed in by the Finnish.

You ain’t wrong. But bear in mind Russia has every possible advantage imaginable, not the least of which is a common border, intimate knowledge of the enemy territory, and countless intelligence assets long in place. In some ways like Texas invading Louisiana as far as those things anyway.


Nobody disagrees with this but this was never going to be a cake walk and Kiev being taken within 5 days is not a good sign

Exactly, this is what happens when you drink the Reddit/cnn kool aid, you will get a lot of hype and end with a huge hangover of disappointment.


It's completely one sided reporting. That's how propaganda works

Its the equivalent of listening to a homer sports broadcaster doing play by play and trying to get an unbiased read on the game

Discussing realities on the ground don’t make one a Putin fan boy

If you question any of their constructs, if you point out the puppet strings, if you notice the collective distribution of specifically repeated patterns, you are a labeled a Russian apologist.

Too many people think Desert Storm is what real war looks like. It's rarely that "easy".

That was the Iraq War or Operation Iraqi Freedom not Desert Storm.

#Kyiv is holding on. According to reports, there is no enemy equipment left there, only enemy landing forces.

They will be cleaned out for sure.

Don’t celebrate though


Heavier Russian tank and motorized rifle units are headed towards Kyiv with artillery. It will be more difficult for Ukrainian forces to stop them.

I was just reading that a Russian official issued a threat to Finland and Sweden that they would face political and military consequences if they move to join Nato.

Putin is certifiably insane.

Read somewhere that these reinforcement lines are why the Russian casualties are being reported as so high.

The Ukrainians appear to be allowing the initial waves to move through, and attacking the logistical support moving in after them, cutting off the supply lines.


If true, then the Russians are screwed.
