And the Pentagon has never been wrong…… Anything run by Biden, including the Pentagon, means nothing to me right now. Call me when Trump is back and we can start rebuilding our military the way it’s been needed to for 20 years. Oh and wipe your upper lip, you got a little Putin cum crust still on it comrade.

Ukraine is currently firing two artillery rounds for every ten the Russians fire. And there’s no air support. Whereas the Russians were dropping 150+ bombs a day in Avidiivka. The end result, casualty rates are going to be very disproportionate.

Biden literally opened his SOTU scream with 10 minutes on Ukraine. It's your and his #1 issue. You are simpatico with Joe Biden, and nothing you say or do can change that.

Ukraine is where the majority of the Biden wealth came from, it's what the deep state used to help bring down Trump. Even your line about Putins cum is something that Steven Colbert or Jimmy Kimmel would say over the last 8 years.

You are the one with cum crust on your lip, and it's Biden's.

It looks like you're starting to come to the realization that Ukraine is fricked. Calm down, it has zero impact on your life, like we've been saying since the beginning.

The Czechs have been collecting funds from allies to buy 800,000 shells from countries that don't want to be seen as supporting Ukraine (likely India, South Africa, and similar). They announced yesterday that funds for the first 300,000 have been collected. I'd expect those shells to start showing up on the front lines very soon.

Your logic on this is on par with your logic on how Russia is stronger financially than the United States of America.

Still waiting on you to explain that one.

Why don't I ever hear of anything being manufactured in Russia, or from Russian engineering and technology? Oh, there have been weapons, but those sales have taken some huge blows due effectiveness and availability since 2022.

There at least used to be a fair amount of Ukrainian steel products, especially pipe, being exported to the USA.

Ukraine was by far the best producer to the Soviet Union’s economy. They were doing everything from steel and military vehicles to aircraft and nuclear power stations. They were the most advanced technologically out of all the soviet states. For people that just say Ukraine should surrender to stop the killing but I keep coming back to that basic question. Look in the mirror. If we were invaded would I just surrender and hope for the best? That’s a big frick no so instead dig, dig, dig and plant, plant, plant with trenches and mines. Ukraine has artillery shells coming now so that’s not a problem for now. They need to concentrate on blunting advance after advance the Russians will try and keep stacking as many bodies up to fertilize the Ukrainian soil as you can.

Russia has extremely low debt levels, and very low foreign debt levels. Total is 19% of GDP IIRC. They're a large exporter essential basic resources, be it petroleum products, or metals. The revenue stream there is massive. The Russians are also an intelligent and disciplined people, they have high human potential. They have a good education system to train their citizens as well. Economically they're in good shape. They've had a budget surplus for what, twenty plus years? And they have large cash and precious metal reserves. Their domestic spending is prudent, and their foreign policy is very rational and self interested. They're not burning dollars trying to change the nature of the Afghans, they're engaging in boring but economically beneficial policies. Their finance and foreign ministries are very professional. They also didn't ship their industry China. Overall, this is a place where life is improving, and will continue to improve.

You have the TFR issue, but the TFR for ethnic Russians is actually slighter higher than that of White Americans. It's also gotten better in Russia, while ours continues to decline.

Russian artillery shell production is at least three times higher than western shell production. And they're vastly outproducing us when it comes to artillery. This is a disparity that's not going away.

Pretty much all of that decayed and died in the post Soviet period. At this point, after the Russian attacks, there's little to no domestic military industry left.

I don't know this, but I assume the concentration of industry in Ukraine was two things, one certainly proximity to resources, but the other was the Ukrainian Communists Party. It was the most powerful of the parties, and they probably steered investment to Ukraine.

There was a paramilitary volunteer that was interviewed on Ukrainian television last week. This guy is a hardliner. He argued their best bet was to freeze the conflict, by whatever means necessary, and then hope for an opportunity in the future. He pointed to Azerbaijan. Baku lost the war in the 90s, but they didn't give up hope, they prepared for the next war, and took advantage of the first opportunity they had.

That really is Kiev's best bet. Stop any further territorial losses, and prepare for the next war. That assume the Russians would be willing to come to terms though, and that's not a sure thing anymore.

Your whole post is a bunch of arty word salad bullshite.

You use words like Massive. Improving. Professional. Intelligent. Disciplined. Blah blah blah.

Russian GDP is lower today than it was literally 10 years ago. Get your mind around that. US and EU GDP has grown 50% in that time even with the pandemic.

You want to know why Russia doesn't have much debt? It's because no one will loan them any money.

By any measure: GDP. GDP per capita. Production efficiency. Credit rating. Standard of living. Balance sheet. Current account ratios. Life expectancy. Etc etc

USA is the economic and military juggernaut of the world.

And this is the cherry on top:

Russia is in the middle of a horrible brain drain. The educated and wealthy are leaving as fast as they can. They are about to basically vanish as a viable country.

You're either a paid troll (most likely) or you just don't understand basic economics

You think the situation has improved for Ukraine in the past year? This time last year you dorks were talking about how the counteroffensive was going to take the land bridge and possibly even Crimea. I said that was retarded and that Ukraine should take all available troops and resources and hold the line where it was. How did that work out?

Pretty much what your job description tells you to say. At least you aren't a useful idiot like the Politards. No excuse for them.

Of the 22.6 percent of households without a centralized sewage system, 16.8 percent use a system of pipes connected to pit toilets, RBC cited the State Statistics Service, Rosstat, as saying. The other 5.8 percent lack a sewage system altogether.

In rural Russia, almost two-thirds have no access to indoor toilets, 48.1 percent of whom use outhouses and 18.4 percent do not have a sewage system.
