        Napoleon's march on Moscow I wouldn't put up there at all. He won the largest battle in history up to that point. He captured Moscow. It was certainly a blunder in many ways but he was facing a host of bad options by that point. He made France the master of much of Europe in part through his deserved legendary talent as a general, but strategically this won him a ton of enemies. A France exhausted from war was always going to have a hard time ruling the continent against the opposition of much of the nobility. Two decades of constant war made Napoleon reliant of foreign forces and logistics, which contributed to the heavy desertion. Then he also got fricked by extremely bad weather right, managing two victories after, and was also sick himself the whole time.

        Obviously, in retrospect he should have made the Russians come to him after they declared war, but it's not clear that would have made things that much better since he was facing a ticking clock.

        What he really needed was either to have achieved an alliance with Russia, or to have spun off the German states as clients. But the technology for running a continent wide client apparatus didn't exist then.

          He tried that and they were still helping the bongs, that's why the 1812 war started you massive moron. If anything, Napoleon was too easy on Russia in 1807 and then on Austria in 1809. He was delusional and thought they'll ever respect his peasant ass on the throne

            I know it didn't work out dumbass. I'm saying strategically it would have secured France's overstretched position if it had.

            And they did have a marriage proposal going and flirted with making food, it's just that Napoleon was facing enough enemies to make the Russians think they could wait him out.

            There weren't really a lot of good options from his perspective.

            There are worse blinders, but I can't think of many worse humiliations.

            Worst blunder, which I am too tired to explain in detail, is that Austria 100% had a chance to win the Austro-Prussian War at Koniggratz.

            Everyone remembers the needle guns, no one recalls that Austrian artillery outranged the Prussian guns and pinned down their center. Officers BEGGED Benecuck to be allowed to attack but he dithered while the Prussians force marched the rest of their army over several miles from a railhead. If he attacks the Prussian earlier, before reinforcements came to strengthen the center (the freshly arrived 8th broke the late and half hearted counter attack), then Prussians loses and 100,000 men strung out over miles get hit by surprise in a huge rout. Austria wins the war and the Germans that produced all the art and culture unify Germany instead of the autists. WWI and II never happen, I'm posting from Mars, and a glorious Austrian super state that stretches from Denmark to Greece has helped keep Europe the most peaceful continent on Earth for over a century.

            Austrians would have started shit for sure. They're already extremely wienery for a cuck country.

      It's incredible and possibly in the top 5 greatest humiliations of the century but going back a millennium there are absolutely some greater frickups. The Franco-Prussian War and Crimean War are still probably worse than this, and going back further you had some insane bullshit like the complete disintegration of the Hungarian military during their war with the Ottomans

      Six day war, and honestly you can easily put the withdrawal from Afghanistan (both of them) in as well

      I don't really think Afghanistan 2021 counts by either metric. The Americans withdrew in excellent order and managed some astounding feats of getting both US troops and aligned refugees/Afghan nationals out with minimal bloodshed, while the ANA did an incredibly shit job of holding the line but by the same measure doesn't really seem to have tried.
      Can't speak for the Soviet withdrawal from Afghanistan but from my understanding it was a humiliation to the Soviets while the DRA actually did alright considering its utter lack of support. Six-Day War absolutely counts though.

          What literally almost everyone fails to understand is that Afghanistan was a resounding success for America. Over a decade of uninterrupted killing and fricking around in someone else's country. Trillions of taxpayer dollars diverted to enriching and securing the dominance of the American military industrial complex and the ultra rich. Years of and years of combat experience that solidify the US's grasp on being the world's supreme military power.

          A few thousand casualties and a meme withdrawal don't make it a failure. Everyone who mattered just decided there was little profit or experience to be gained from America. The new cool thing to get rich from was preparing for a conventional but restricted warfare with China. Until Putin went full moron but I digress. America never lost in Afghanistan because America was never there to defeat the Taliban or set up a friendly government or whatever. It was there to get dosh and it succeeded and nothing you can say or do can change that fact.

          The vehicles were literally cheaper to leave behind than take back with withdrawing American forces, and as-is the Islamic Emirate has no way to maintain them because they can't get the myriad finicky parts necessary for repairs.

          Considering the presence there for the previous 20 years it was humiliating sure, but the fact the Americans at least got their guys out with minimal losses and pretty much according to pre-negotiated plans makes it hard to compare with phenomena like the Great Siberian Ice March and the collapse of the Kyiv Front in Ukraine, or fighting military failures such the Afghan National Army itself or the army of Saddamist Iraq.

            I don't quite see it as a long term strategic blunder for the crusaders
            Most of them were from western-european nations which benefited immensely from the fall of Byzantium in the long term, both in the influx of learned easterners kickstarting the renaissance and in due to Europe being forced to find a way around the Ottoman control over the trade routes, starting the age of exploration and with it european world dominance

            It was a complete shitshow for the Balkans to be sure, but they had their chance to set things right at Varna and didn't

            In the end though, it was destiny Byzantium would fall, the fourth crusade was just a symptom of the same rot that had cost them Manzikert: trying to solve internal power plays by hiring external mercenaries

        The Gallipoli campaign was a costly failure for the Allies, with an estimated 27,000 French, and 115,000 British and dominion troops (Great Britain and Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, India, and Newfoundland) killed or wounded. Over half these casualties (73,485) were British and Irish troops.

          Of all the varied parts of the world where British and Commonwealth forces were deployed during the First World War, Gallipoli was remembered by its veterans as one of the worst places to serve.

          It was the scene of some of the fiercest fighting of the war. Allied troops landed there in April 1915 and spent months on the small peninsula of land guarding the Dardanelles Straits in modern-day Turkey. The military aims of the campaign were not achieved and it was eventually called to a halt; the final Allied troops were evacuated in January 1916.

          There were heavy casualties, not only from the fighting, but from the extremely unsanitary conditions. Of the estimated 213,000 British casualties, 145,000 were from illness. Surviving combatants also recalled the terrible problems with intense heat, swarms of flies, body lice, severe lack of water and insufficient supplies.https://www.iwm.org.uk/history/9-reasons-why-gallipoli-was-one-of-the-worst-fighting-fronts-of-the-first-world-war

          Italy versus Greece was pretty pathetic too.

          Italy in WWII has the perfect JUST moment. They had one of their champion fighters box a captured black soldier for a propaganda reel. It was supposed to show off the superiority of the Italian race. It was a completely unfair fight since it was a pro versus a guy who had never boxed.

          But this is Italy in WWII, so not even a fixed fight can go right, and the pro, probably while trying to show off and slip punches, gets clocked with a haymaker and is knocked completely unconscious.

        IMO, most of the humiliation from the US's withdrawal from Afghanistan had less to do with us leaving and more to do from how botched it was. To this day the thought of how much equipment we left behind pisses me off a bit.

          It was definitely a botched extraction. That being said, I'm still not convinced that, after 20 years, we didn't come to the conclusion that the Afghani coalition government was so hopelessly corrupt that the only faction that could exert any meaningful control over Afghanistan was the Taliban. We just left behind the means to do so.

          Is there a good way to leave Afghanistan? You have to pretend that the puppet government will last, so you have to leave them equipment. Simultaneously, you can't de-escalate slowly and start withdrawing troops over a long period because that risks escalation by the Taliban which would require more troops to shut them down again.

          Maybe, with enough political will, the withdrawal could've been well announced with the message of "sort your own shit out", but the diplomatic backlash would have been insane.

      This would be if the US collected its expeditionary forces from Asia, Europe and the Middle East, attempting to land into areas like Kabul, and then getting blown the frick out of the water, and retreating for 6-8 months, proceeding to reinstitute the draft and calling in reservists who fought in Vietnam, and being issued M-14s because you ran out of M16A1s.

      Withdrawal of Afghanistan was embarrassing in a way getting caught with your fly undone is embarrassing. It means little shot-term and is insignificant in the grand scheme of things. What Russia is experiencing is dying from auto-erotic asphyxiation. They are going to die and everyone is going to make fun of them for it regardless of whatever they did before.

        It's this shit that makes me love the Russian "last real masculine man" attitude and posturing.
        They spend the whole time waxing poetic about being the last bastion of masculinity, untainted by the soft effeminate liberal west, and think themselves tough for it. Humanities last hope against degeneracy, surely they will prevail

        ......and then suffering a nation destroying, absolutely blown the frick out, KO by the unimaginably wealthy, onions/HFCS fueled, troony infested, degenerate, homosexual west without a single western soldier dying because Russia thought it could wage a war (against the dying of its own light) against a world who can't be bothered to treat it as anything other than another half rate proxy war they can throw money at to make the problem go away.

          Iraq pretty much was in full retreat, no one had the stomach to stay in Kuwait, US army never cut off the Iraqis from Basra, their withdrawal was pretty much a success and Saddam stayed in power for another 12 years, but it wasn’t from fighting in the Gulf.

          Russia on the other hand is basically facing a very bitter fight against Ukraine, which is using western tech and supplies to negate Russian air supremacy, so it’s just a brutal slog.

          If Ukraine didn’t have western awacs or wonderwuffe this would have ended months ago.

The entire region only had 7 million Russian citizens and a large number are natives or Mongols. Of the remaining Europeans, many are descendants of Poles, israeli, and Ukrainians deported there in the Soviet era. That shit is barely majority Russian even if it still is and is on its way to being plurality Han Chinese. China has an intentional plan of making it a Chinese region and still claims large parts of it.

      Indeed. Quite frankly I find comparisons of the Russian invasion of Ukraine to Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan is if anything, a gross understatement.

      What happened in Vietnam was a disgrace. It was wasteful, tragic, and should never be repeated (America has failed at this, twice). The very word "Vietnam" rolls off of the American tongue with shame and bitterness that is palpable.

      Ukraine is a catastrophe. One without precedent in modern history.

      There is no other way of putting it. The last seven months have been a disaster of unprecedented proportions, one that imperils the very existence of Russia as a polity and arguably the entire world with it. As Vladimir Putin is a man whose formative experience was the Fall of the Soviet Union, an experience that he would sooner set the whole world ablaze than allow to happen again.

      Ukraine isn't the Russian Vietnam (that would be Afghanistan btw). Ukraine is its graveyard. That land on the Black Sea where the Bear met its match. Where criminal pride and imperial hubris were finally humbled. Where the last vestiges of the Soviet Union and the Tsardom before it died in flames. All live-streamed in 4K.

      The only real remaining question is, will the rest of us be dragged into the flames as well?

    You're all failing to notice that any example of a comparable military and political blunder you can come up with is more than a hundred years old. And doesn't even compare. The russo-japanese war didn't end tzarist Russia, WW1 did, Italy in WW2 was firmly on the side of Axis and couldn't even control its destiny at that point because Germany dominated them, Qing China died after a century of decline and being ravaged by multiple nations and factors, WW2 Japan beat the shit out of everyone before they were defeated in an apocalyptic struggle, and WW1 and WW2 Germany fought to the bitter end. Even Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Empire went down fighting in a fricking world war.

    Russia's disaster is self-inflicted, unnecessary and humiliating to the extent it dwarfs anything in modern history. There is no comparable war or event.

        Because I'm pretty sure that the second Chechen war ended with russians bribing the kadyrov clan into cooperation with money and by giving them independence in pretty much every aspect, except for (maybe) foreign policy and colors on the map. That's hardly a win if you compare chechnya and russia

            No one's saying that they are, the other guy is saying that that's how Russia has tried to cast itself against its rivals: as the macho traditionalists fighting against the effete, indecisive comsopolitans in the west (whom they incorrectly lump the Ukies in with, as Putin did just a few days ago), who have only led comfortable lives, and know nothing of real hardship or struggle. They've promoted this narrative so effectively that even some fairly influential American politicians have bought into it (pic related). This adds a dash of irony to Russia's defeat, because they're losing to the same people they've spent the last decade calling a bunch of limp-wristed homosexuals and sissies.

            Without scarcity, the Culture has no need for money; instead, minds voluntarily indulge humanoid and drone citizens' pleasures, leading to a largely hedonistic society. Many of the series' protagonists are humanoids who choose to work for the Culture's elite diplomatic or espionage organisations, and interact with other civilisations whose citizens hold wildly different ideologies, morals, and technologies.

            The Culture has a grasp of technology that is advanced relative to most other civilisations . The Culture's citizens have been enhanced to live for centuries and have modified mental control over their physiology, including the ability to introduce a variety of psychoactive drugs into their systems, change biological sex, or switch off pain at will. Culture technology can transform individuals into vastly different body forms, although the Culture standard form remains fairly close to human.

            The Culture holds peace and individual freedom as core values, and a central theme of the series is ethical struggle it faces when interacting with other societies – some of which brutalise their own members, pose threats to other civilisations, or threaten the Culture itself. It tends to make major decisions based on the consensus formed by its Minds and, if appropriate, its citizens. In one instance, a direct democratic vote of a billion– the entire population – decided The Culture would go to war with a rival civilisation. Culture against a highly illiberal society of supposedly equal power: the aggressive, despotic Russians . Though they posed no immediate, direct threat to the Culture, the Culture declared war because it would have felt useless if it allowed the Russians' ruthless expansion to continue.

          Vranyo is a way of life in Russia.

          The West is decadent, depraved and without religion - when Alcoholism rates in Russia are higher than anywhere in the west, Russia is the largest producer and distributor of child porn outside of Thailand, AIDS rates higher than any country not in Africa, national church attendance rates lower than even the most liberal and atheistic cities in the west and none of this is hidden from the public.

          It cannot be understated just how much Mongol domination and then Communist destruction and demoralization affected Russian 'culture'.

            There are about 100 million Catholics in the EU and about 30 Million are fastidiously practicing observers. There are a further 70 million in the USA and about 25 Million of those are fastidiously practising observers. There are at least the same number of protestants and fastidiously practicing protestants. We will not include cults like the scientologists, Moonies, Russian orthodox church etc as religions....please note that there are more fastidiously practising protestants and Catholics in the USA and EU than the entire population of Russia. I therefore find your definition

            >The West is decadent, depraved and without religion
            False. Are there depraved people in the west absolutely. They exist everywhere. Consider the Iranians beating girls to death for not wearing bags on their heads or the Chechens beating and torturing homosexuals to death, or the Pakistanis sentencing children to death for insufficient respect to a book. The Saudis will cut peoples hands and heads off. The Afghanis like to repeatedly buggering young boys after making them dance as women, the Chinese and se Asians routinely sell their daughters into prostitution in return for cash loans, the Africans beat albinos to death and eat their organs or mutilating their daughters genitals with razor blades as the Israelis do to their sons, the Indian Hindo considered the sacrifice of a toddler to be instrumental in bringing financial luck and cast out their elderly relatives to die in poverty on the streets, leaving street children and lepers to suffer agony and death as outcasts because it is their 'fate' and 'karma'. The west has far to go in depravity to match these cultural institutions and other cultures have little to match the sincere religious convictions of the western observant Catholic and Protestant populations.
            The west is far from the most depraved culture, take a look at some ISIS execution videos to remind yourself of western moral authority

        Tucker Carlson, like his left wing equivalent is a polarisation and subversion agent. He may not even know he is, may be that he is just an actor for an editor that is. He is voice acting for a foreign policy that directly benefits not the American people or their allies but Putin.

        Sure, russians lost badly in both of these but one was against a modernized, rising power and the other was against their traditional rival.
        Meanwhile, Ukrainians always were something like a little, moronic brother for Russians. Ukraine has never won a war in their history, and THIS is going to be their very first time.

      It's kind of hard to rank some of these. Stuff like Pear harbor turned out horrible in the end but had a decent idea behind at least, and was born from trying to objectively view themselves and their enemy. And it was basically a binary choice between focusing on China or attacking the US. And war between Nazi Germany and the USSR was inevitable, the management left a lot to be desired but once again the core idea was either decent or the situation unavoidable in the long term.
      Russia did not need to attack Ukraine, not really, so long as there was a low level fighting in the east of Ukraine the situation was contained and there was no risk of western oil&gas companies setting up shop or for Ukraine to be able to get into either the EU or NATO. And the timing couldn't have been worse, both from an operational viewpoint and in general for the situation at home and in the west. Seriously had he just waited a few years western unity could have honestly collapsed. But no, Putin threw away everything that he had been building up for his entire career because of sheer hubris and the inability to read his own country, and the system that he himself put up.
      And in the end it might cost Russia far more than even the Soviet Collapse did.

      Not even close. The Falkland was a pointless bloodbath. 649 Argentine military personnel, 255 British military personnel died. Less than a thousand deaths and 1/3rd of them are British. The Russian military failure in Ukraine is 10,000 destroyed heavy weapons (tanks, apcs, ifvs, engineering, artillery pieces, planes helicopters) and
      A QUARTER MILLION Russian KIA, WIA, POW, +OTHER. That is just Russian (its more including light vehicles, drones etc). Russia is now an economic, diplomatic, cultural and military pariah. Only shitboxes like North Korea and Iran and Syria even answer the phone and that is just because they are so fricking lonely, even fat girls like Venezuela and China are texting back saying they are busy. The Falklands was a tragic and complete failure of leadership. Three hundred of the 900 dead are on the belgrano, with hose removed, 42% of the deaths in teh Falklands were British, far from a one sided win. Don't get me wrong, the argentine dictator was a fricking c**t but the British sun reader tier imperial victory resulting in some kids scrapped of the dole in moss side dying for nothing in the middle of nowhere because Thatcher needed and election is fricking sickening. It has nothing in common with the Ukraine war where Zelensky actually tried hard to suggest that Russia would never invade and then fought a genuine war of national defense.

        The USA lost fewere men in Vietnam in ten years than Russia has in six months in Ukraine. It is also very debatable if the USA actually lost in its primary goal of stopping a domino effect of nations being toppled by communist militarism in SE Asia. Where the USA did loose was to Russian subversion domestically but militarily and strategically not so much. They inflicted disproportionate casualties on communist forces and despite Laos and Cambodia falling, the Philippines and Indonesia did not.

          >thinking the Philippines was ever going to fall to Communism anyways
          The CIA was literally ruling the country for multiple years after the whole "Pretend to be Vampires and fly planes over the commie guerillas while screaming that anyone who supported them would be cursed by magic" thing.

            It was not just the Philippines and Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia etc all held against the communist menace, frequently with considerable political sacrifice though. pol pot killed communism in SE Asia forever though and Laos was no better (people forget the Pathet Lao were plenty fricking evil as well. The US lost 58000 troops in Vietnam but distoyed vast amounts of Russian material and communist fighters and delayed the spread of it to neighbours by ten years. Would Thailand have had its own Misc Pot if the US had not intervened in Vietnam? Where teh US lost was subversion, the 'peace' movement, the campaign for nuclear disarmament, the 50/60s kkk and black panthers, the watts riots, the Toxteth and Brixton riots, the Greenham common women, the miners strikes, the red army faction, the bader meinhof. The same mistake today I see with golden dawn, afd, the brazilian communists, the Irish communists, the british bnp/PA/combat16, the northern league, the Czech communist etc etc etc. They should all be hung they are all traitors and Moscow agents at the top

        US fought in Vietnam for twenty years and by the end the Vietcong were pretty much defeated. South Vietnam didn't fall to the Vietcong, they fell to the North Vietnamese Army(who we never fought.) All we had to do was keep a few military bases in South Vietnam to deter North Vietnam, if we did that South Vietnam would still be around today.

      Neither America nor the USSR had lost that many battles in Afghanistan, especially not humiliating ones. They just couldn't establish a firm control over it.

      USA in Vietnam

      Same case as Afghanistan.
      The Tet offensive is considered a Vietcong win nowadays simply because it happened, which meant that Vietcong is still capable of fighting. But it didn't achieve any of its objectives and viets suffered terrrible losses.
      You could compare Vietnam to Ukraine if Russians actually only tried to secure Luganda and Donbabwe, and retreated from there after years of constantly btfoing ukros

        >Tet
        You are a moron. 1) The Tet was done by NVA not VC forces. Thats why it was an orchestrated attack with small units of VC joining and kicking off the fray. 2) The Tet is widely studied as an interesting example of winning the battle and losing the war. 3) The Viets are in no way comparable to Afghanistan. Even as bad as Afghanis got it the Viets got it more. We dropped more bombs in Vietnam than in WWII. And that is why defusal remains a constant skill in the nation. 4) The Viets lost entire generations in their wars to stand alone.

      Not even close. See

      >Mustafa Kemal was a fricking incredible general
      nah, he was a moron
      the brits won that war for him by organizing a coup in Athens out of the blue and then leaving the French without any support in the desert
      Armenia was also not a threat because soviets invaded them from the north
      all kemalroach had to do was not letting his army fall apart
      [...]
      How is any of these comparable to the war with ukraine now?
      Sure, russians lost badly in both of these but one was against a modernized, rising power and the other was against their traditional rival.
      Meanwhile, Ukrainians always were something like a little, moronic brother for Russians. Ukraine has never won a war in their history, and THIS is going to be their very first time. I don't think you can compare that with anything in russia's military history and it's full of embarrassing defeats.

          I'm not saying it wasn't important. It's just nowhere as close in terms of humiliation. Red Army performed much better than modern Russian army plus they had the civil war as an excuse for their logistical issues, while before the ukraine war they had two decades of peace (or at least lack of conventional war).

        Losing those regions must be pretty humiliating for the Ukrainians. Not only were they unable to defend them, they couldn’t even get accepted into the EU or NATO due to having contested territories. It’s going to take a lot more bit posts to elevate Ukraine out of their Africa tier echelons of statehood.

    There are worse blinders, but I can't think of many worse humiliations.

    Worst blunder, which I am too tired to explain in detail, is that Austria 100% had a chance to win the Austro-Prussian War at Koniggratz.

    Everyone remembers the needle guns, no one recalls that Austrian artillery outranged the Prussian guns and pinned down their center. Officers BEGGED Benecuck to be allowed to attack but he dithered while the Prussians force marched the rest of their army over several miles from a railhead. If he attacks the Prussian earlier, before reinforcements came to strengthen the center (the freshly arrived 8th broke the late and half hearted counter attack), then Prussians loses and 100,000 men strung out over miles get hit by surprise in a huge rout. Austria wins the war and the Germans that produced all the art and culture unify Germany instead of the autists. WWI and II never happen, I'm posting from Mars, and a glorious Austrian super state that stretches from Denmark to Greece has helped keep Europe the most peaceful continent on Earth for over a century.

    Is this worse or better than Britain losing Signapore to the Japanese in like 5 days because they didn't think you could plan an attack through the Jungle?

    The British suffered about 5k dead but many 10's of thousands of POWs who were then brutalised for the rest of the war, worked to death and occasionally eaten

    Britain and Commonwealth forces eventually drove the Japanese back out again though. Don't think the Russians will be doing that

      There are leaders like Francisco Solano Lopez of Paraguay, whose recklessness to enter wars and bad planning led to the destruction of their country, but Russia's self-own is on another level. They had at least 8 years to prepare the invasion, they cultivated an image of power, they're the largest country in the world, etc. etc. and they still lost to Zelensky's fricking troon redditor brigade

      But this is still more embarrassing because Russia has been hyped up as a serious superpower, they had years to plan it out, the scale is global, etc.
