Just type it out every time. There's no need to have all these abbreviations.

You know, you should start a Ukraine meme thread. That way it’s all condensed there and easily accessible. Probably get some good contributions you haven’t seen yet too

German Finance Minister Christian Lindner said on Friday that we must step up sanctions against Russia and that we are open to cutting Russia out of the SWIFT international payments system.

Can they at least be funny? I appreciate a good meme but man, these are lame.

I'm very skeptical of all the success stories, but latest:

quote:

Russian forces have problems with fuel and materiel, and have stopped near the northeastern city of Konotop after suffering heavy losses, the Ukrainian military reports, according to Reuters.



Other reports (can't tell if from other sources) indicate that militants and Ukrainian special forces were successful cutting off resupply routes from the rear. Some reports of Russian soldiers looting shops or trying to buy food from locals.

The point is to get them all in one place. Someplace else.

It's crazy how many are swallowing the State Department propaganda today. Not just on here but just in the US and worldwide in general.

Interesting.

If that map is accurate, they haven't penetrated as far as other reports say. Doesn't look good for the capital, though.

It won’t? The Chinese have no problems getting around the CCP’s shite. Not a big tech guy, so don’t quite understand this one.

Here's another one put together by some twitter sources many in this thread have relied on. Obviously can't vouch for accuracy but useful explanations.

Yeah, the Ghost of Kiev being the greatest pilot since WWII is making me slightly apprehensive.

It’s only been a couple days now and Ukraine is vast, it’s a classic pincher move and if there aren’t some major moves to keep a salient to the west open they will be encircled and then the lines will press every further in until Kiev is completely under siege.

Not looking good for civilians.

It seems like a logical and likely problem for them to have.

I don't think people understand just how large Ukraine is and keeping supply lines secure when you're making such large advances is a herculean task that requires a lot of personnel and resources. I always assumed this would be their largest hurdle.

Damn. Just imagining Putin's shame if Russia is somehow sent packing with tail tucked firmly between their legs.
