They may not be short on museum piece T-34s, but they are incredibly hard up for qualified tankers and mechanics trying to get the shit in the depots up and running and they probably couldn't spare the manpower to make a bunch of shitty unreliable museum pieces run for a parade.
Compare this to last year not just in how many vehicles there were, but the speed in which the vehicles moved. Today's parade went snail pace to make it longer. It literally could've ended in 2 mins if they hadn't gone slow.
Because Russians, particularly older Russians, don't actually speak Russian in their daily life. They speak a weird mutt lingo that originated as prison slang, no joke.
and unlike other languages, grammar doesn't mean shit in Russian unironically outside of learning it at an academic level in a western country. You can literally string together any form of 'close-enough' words to get the point across and it will be understood by the person you are talking to. It's a language of drunkards and that makes it quite easy to learn so long as you completely ignore grammar.

Not really xenophobic. We like to banter about Swedes while deep down having an inferiority complex towards them, and currently really dislike Russia because they keep invading their neighbors.

Finnish has some similarities with Japanese, mainly in grammar rules and most words not sounding like Indo-European equivalents. Learning things like verb conjugation and pronounciation should be easy for a Finn and vice versa.

The average gopmoron doesn't know even half of that shit. He yammers away in prison pidgin.
Highly flexible word order, plus a thick layer of metaphor and proverbs/cultural references.
The former is made possible by robust morphology, i.e. more of the meaning is carried by the word's particular form and less, by its position in a sentence.
it does about as well as it does with Japanese though. Probably because Russian is very proverbial and Japan is very contextual, both things AIs fail at miserably. Google is unironically the best option to use as it never omits anything unless certain character confuse the parser, but the romaji output will be fine. DeepL conveniently forgets things that are really hard for it but has the linguee DB for backup and bing exists.
ChatGPT straight up makes shit up to a worrying degree, so it sucks for Japanese as it generally has no fucking clue so it just fills in the blanks which looks nice to someone who doesn't know that it does this. Might be perfect for Russian though...
Because they're not speaking russian, they're speaking a butchered ugly slang version of it and everything gets shortened cuz words are too long, lacking exact translation, have to use 6 words to translate 1 english word, so endless loanwords that fas mongoloids mangle, it feels retarded and undeveloped.
What happened to the other 29? I'm guessing half ended up in various oligarch demolition derbies, one or two fell off some trucks, and the rest were accidentally ditched into a river by a man holding a cigarette with both hands.
No. These old tanks are not maintenance free. Every single one of them requires parts and resources, and an ever dwindling supply because there are no more T-34 factories anymore. So you do everything custom, more or less.
Russia can't do that anymore. They can barely get real tanks to the frontlines, let alone obsolete tanks to parades.
I love how Ztards were all saying that Russia was only using 1% of its army in Ukraine and now they're coping by saying all tanks are fighting in Ukraine
...And that's it. THAT'S IT! For their victory day parade!
Jesus christ, they had ONE ANCIENT TANK!
How does this not seem like "Oh god, we are out of tanks!" to even a dim-witted russian peasant? How do they think this will not seem like "That's it, this is all we have!" to any russian?!
Jesus christ, this clown parade might be a coffin nail for Putin.
Anon, you don't understand vatnik mentality
It's not that they ran out of tanks, no
all tanks are on the front line fighting for motherland, why would you waste them on something trivial as a parade, truly 500IQ move from chief monke
>all tanks are on the front line
The funny thing is that is not far from the truth, I'd wager that the vast majority of Russia's (operational) tank reserves are in Ukraine, but the problem is that no Russian would want to face the logical conclusion of that train of thought, that is... >"We are so over-stretched in Ukraine we can't even spare a handful of tanks for our biggest annual event"
Yeah, operational tanks are in ukraine, but we know they probably still have maybe even thousands more tanks that can be used. Each time people say they're running out we see pics of huge trains carrying t-62s and t-55s...
The fact they didn't even put one of those on the parade shows how dire the situation must be.
Yes the rest are off getting blown to scrap in Ukraine
Another possibility is they don’t have the fuel/spare parts to waste them for them. Russian logistics are terrible and despite having ample resources their stuff still has issues reaching the front
>How does this not seem like "Oh god, we are out of tanks!" to even a dim-witted russian peasant?
"Look Ivan Conscriptovitch, tank is da. We clearly have tanks."
Anyone who paid attention to the war would've seen this coming when tanks with parade paintjobs started appearing in Ukraine after their last Virgin Day.
What the actual fuck were they thinking
It would have been less embarrassing to have no tanks at all, at least then it would look like some sort of deliberate choice
Surely they have 1 gorillion T-34s they could polish up somewhere, not as if that many have been seen in Ukraine
What did they genuinely mean by this???
>Surely they have 1 gorillion T-34s they could polish up somewhere
Nope. They sold all their T-34's after the end of WW2 and they went to states like Laos and Cambodia etc. So since, Russia has been buying them back and canabilising them to get them working. So no, they just don't have them or have them working. It isn't that easy. It's why Tiger 131 is a marvel of engineering feat, it takes a lot of work to get just one tank working, try doing that with dozens.
After that, all the mechanics/trained crew are trying to get T-72's and shit working for the actual war. They don't have time to work on T-34-85's for a parade.
Russia is so interesting
Like the ancestors parade where russians devolve into pre-historic style ancestor worship, like not even zeus and hades polytheism, but stuff even before homer.
Why do you even support Russia when Putin himself said that Kosovo is an independent state and not part of Serbia? Why are you that addicted to Russian cum? Even your fellows aren't that retarded.
OK, I would have understood that they cancelled pretty much all other victory day parades around the country... IF they would have then concentrated the vehicles from them to Moscow.
At least that way they could have had a neat, impressive parade with lots of stuff.
But this just reeks of desperation. Every bit of available material is on the ukrainan front, or already in scrap and ashes. This looks like they CAN NOT get any more than this scraped together.
Mark my words: This was the day when it dawned to ordinary russians that the downfall is close. This is when they realized "Oh god! We are running out of military!"
Nah, they’ll just eat up the “they’re in ukraine” drivel and move on, they don’t care, they’re the ultimate cucks, do nothing until the draft men come to rip your son away, then join the death cult saying you’re glad your son is dying there rather than be useless here!
Today it was proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that Puccia fucking lost to brave people who had a little help. There's no coming back from an L this big. Ukraine won, it's over.
estonian independence day parade could take on and win with ease the russian vday parade.
Estonia had 25 vehicles but it featured more tanks that are actually cutting edge, artillery, anti air systems and modern ifv's and afvs.
A baltic state has not only eclipsed russia eocnomically, it has also eclipsed it militarily.
They didn't even bring out the Armatas, the fucking Armatas were a no show for the big dumb parade, what did they finally run them into the ground with all the parades and propaganda shots and they can't replace the ruined parts?
No way.
No fucking way!
They still have hundereds of T-72s and dozens of T-90s. Don't tell me they couldn't spare 10-20 of each for a Moscow parade. What the hell is happening?
>T-34 hasn't gotten maintenance in a year or so since the specialized mechanics are either too busy or dead >Utter lack of tank personnel that can be spared >All the "impressive" looking tanks are at the front, remaining tanks have no ERA and generally look like shit (which is okay at the front, but not in front of the people who still think Russia is overflowing with semi-modern armor) >Can't pull modern tanks from the front cause they're needed, couldn't put them in the parade in the first place without causing chaos with every unit that doesn't have modern tanks at the front
There's many options
Don't forget logistics
It may have just been straight up too difficult to pull those tanks out from wherever the fuck they currently are, either because of the difficulty of accessing their location or because local logistics networks are already taxed to capacity keeping the front supplied
>Well I'm sure the anti-russian side of 4chan are laughing themselves half to death at this.

>To be humble
Russia has borderline literally doing nothing but boasting, grandstanding, and chest thumping this entire debacle of a military campaign, that is the opposite of humble, but then again those people have to huff their copium.
What's so hard to understand? It's a thug state. Whatever big monke says, goes. Doesn't matter if it contradicts itself, you nod if you want to keep on living.
A bigger question would be whether this multi-generational abuse can be undone.
They are "humble" in a way of not having self-worth. They are perfectly content to be expandable and generic citizens of "the best and the biggest country in the world, which also singlehandedly defeated Nazi Germany and could have won Cold War by nuking America, but that western spy Gorbachev ruined everything", or something along those lines.
This. They are perfectly content to be worthless expendable chaff, as long as the Rashan state is stronk and threatening.
Heck, Pushkin was writing about the Circassian genocide that the remaining ones will be slaves, but slaves of one of the greatest empires in the world. So it predates gommunizm.
There's a shitload of insane shit in vatnik mentality which are called a "spiritual staple", even Monke was talking about them at some point. Being strong/having a strong military is one of them. I mean a vatmoron can live in a literal garbage dump, freezing and starving to death, and a single thought of his glorious national leader having access to nuclear weaponry capable of destroying half of the world on a whim will keep him running, gloating, boasting and bragging. Which is also why MUH NOOKS point is getting brought up constantly
the russian people have been under one strongman dictator or another with minimal personal ownership or rights of an individual for literally a thousand years. they replaced peasant feudalism with communism and trucking entire populations back and forth to assigned jobs. for which they never saw any reason to work harder or received a benefit from. it was a task in front of them. at a population level, there is a complete lack of understanding about personal choice and a disconnect between actions and personal improvement. they can find pleasure in the posturing because its all they have. It does not need to be matched by work because of that disconnect, posturing is the same thing as achievement.
I mean this completely unironically: you are probably overestimating how repressive the late Tsardom was, and underestimating how bad the Bolshevism fucked Russia

not great, a lot of >you can't expect us to have tanks at tha parade when there's a war on! You want us to weaken our front lines!
which is basically admitting that Russia is no longer a superpower and barely has enough tanks to hold the position they're currently in
I don't understand how they don't know that such an excuse actually makes the Russian army look worse.
That's a hilarious cope given Russia actually had some to spare for the victory parade back when they were holding twice as much ground. It's basically admitting Ukraine is winning the attrition war.
Thats why they're shitting up Ukrainian comments 24/7
with:
le fighting to the last ukrainian
Ukraine should capitulate, I mean start peace talks while its still populated.
Ukraine is suffering catastrophic losses, why dont you give up, give up, we're trying to murder you all, but we're actually concerned about you.
You should really give up or everybody gets nuked.
Whats funny even if Zelenskyy capitulated people would continue to fight until invaders are annihilated.
>try to flex your military forces during the 9th may parade every single year >can't afford it anymore >alright let's just do a small parade because we need to >get laughed at no tanks being present >UMM SWEATIE THEY'RE NEEDED ELSEWHERE??? WHY ARE YOU SURPRISED THERE'S NO TANKS HERE EVERYTHING IS GOING ON JUST AS PLANNED
Rusmorons are amazing at creating worthless problems out of thin air and then getting pissy at people noticing them
Part of me wonders if this is intentionally designed to galvanize the population into volunteering or to ready them for widespread mobilization. If they can't afford to pull tanks back from the front, why wouldn't they just cancel the parade under the auHispanices of "muh ukie terrorists"? I can't honestly believe that a nation based entirely upon mindfucking their citizens would not realise that parading a single, ancient rust bucket would go down well.
Fuck they gonna do? Thumbs-up a gherkin post on telegram?
No one will do shit until they or their relatives get drafted. And once they do, they'll cope by "it is what it is, guess I gotta defend motherland now".
What even happen to rest of the T-34s and the T-14s that they usually pull out for this bullshit? They can't at least scrape those together? Not like either is combat ready anyway. Is the head monke just seething too hard to plan a parade now?
More armor AND jets AND helicopters.
Come to think of it, the policemen strike probably had more armor too, depending on how you measure it. I'm sure there's small time american sheriffs with more millimeters of armor in their auto park than this russian parade showed.
>Is Russia out of VDV?
No, but the Russians ran out of the magic substance they've been using to instantly turn untrained mobiks into paratroopers (blue berets). The few surviving VDV are irreplaceable now. Extinction is inevitable.

The US doesn’t do military parades for a reason. I don’t think “we might have all our working equipment wiped out invading our speedbump neighbor” was on the list but it might be now.
If America had military parades, it would be the biggest, baddest fucking parade in the world. We'd probably launch a nuke in the background or some shit to add to the euphoria of the moment.
Hell, even then they don't fly them out specifically for that occasion. They just schedule a planned routine/training flight to coincide with a match and have them do a flyover as part of it. It's great PR and you're not throwing away any extra time or money.
Those giant military parades China/NK/Russia throws? Complete waste of resources just for a mix of tradition and strong man posturing. Even the biggest parade from any other nations has a strong upper cap for what they're allowed to spend and use.
These regimes derive their power from the martial demographic in the country so the strongman posturing is an investment in their support. Compare that to a country like USA where Biden derives his power from fags morons and garden gnomes. That's why Biden touches children on camera, it's an investment in their support
>Erik Prince gets on youtube in front of a field full of dead blackwater mercs to scream about how the secretary of defense needs to give him more ammo
and here I thought Putin was going to parde Azov POWs and captured equipment through red square. have Russian Youth throw Ukranian and Nazi flags at the foot of Lenin's tomb. What a total let down.
You know things are bad when the only cope they can muster is "yeah but muh trannies muh joos muh gays" as they desperately try to ignore their precious parade was reduced to one museum piece and a couple of trucks
It feels like a missed opportunity that they didn't lean into it and have a museum parade. Just roll out a bunch of early military equipment and larpers to show Russia across history.
Imagine seeing pike and shot marching down the red square and other imperial shit. Maybe even some dudes dressed in armour. In a way it would be more interesting and patriotic than seeing modern equipment.
>post this a week ago assuming drone attack on kremlin is a false flag so they have an excuse to not hold the victory day parade this year >they hold it anyway, meaning it wasn't a false flag, and prove my overexaggerated assumptions almost completely true
i do not have words anymore.
If the Armatas were on the front we'd definitely have seen footage by now, my guess is they're in storage. The only thing more embarrassing then having a drone attack the kremlin at night is having a drone attack and disable an Armata during a parade on live TV.
My bet is they're still in the motor pool. They have to show them off from time to time to spook the media but cannot allow a single T-14 to be lost in combat. They can't put them on the parade either because everyone will mock the T-14 only good as a parade tank which is a big no-no when every Russian knows they spent big bucks in developing all these new weapons.
Suppose that the drone strike was NOT a false flag and the Kremlin doesn't know who did it yet
They cannot discount that it was Ukraine
Therefore there is a non-zero chance of a larger drone breaking through today
And if a drone blew up a T-14 on the May 9th Parade in front of millions of Russians watching on TV and the whole world at least kind of paying attention, it would be even more humiliating than the Moskva being sunk, because at least it was in a recognised combat zone at the time
They never existed. The money to buy them was instead used to buy a (rigorously non-functional) gold plated toilet to be placed inside a very expensive yacht
Sun Tzu says to lure the enemy into false hope about your combat (in)abilities. Showing a bad parade intentionally to make Ukraine overconfident is a smart play.
I have seen this line parroted by vatmorons more and more these past few days, it makes me laugh, even they can't squirm their way out of how incredibly shit Russia looks.
Russia could not stomach saying "Oh look, we're so weak.". They've always boasted about how big and tough they are, even when they aren't. Simple "humility" is an anathema to Russians. Not even a simple "Yes, we do not have these forces." is too much of a deception for them. Everything is padded. Everything is inflated. Everything is farts in a balloon. Always was. Always will be. They simply can't.
>Simple "humility" is an anathema to Russians.
Russians mentally live in the gulag, humility means you're a bitch and therefore you get fucked both literally and figuratively and become a pariah.
Is it true King Monke banned the public from attensingbthe parade? I only see the stands for official seating in these clips. >1 Alzheimer's tank >no spectators
Toplels
That is very funny but I think the more significant piece is that there wasn't a single combat unit on parade. It was all cadets, rosgvardiya, emergency first responders, etc.
Jesus, the fucking St Patrick's Day parade here in Ireland had a bigger military presence, we had one (1) less tank, but three (3) more aircraft for the air show.

Israeli bombing is inconsequential. They just stuff your news cycle with it to try to clout how powerful they are. What has it achieved objectively? It's not a winning strategy to change the situation in their favor.
Iran wins if it keeps the war in a mode it can control. It will lose if it enters a hot war because of the tech disparity.
The US was too naive and believed that retarded arabs would prefer economic development to killing each other over sectarian bullshit.
There's no such problem in Ukraine. They're more like japs or germans after WW2, and have proven that they want to join the West and are better at war than Russia. As a bonus, no western armies are actually fighting beyond giving technical and logistical asistance. US soldiers and glowies are mostly sitting back and enjoying the spectacle with envy.
This was never on offer for the middle east. The US was planning to sell of all the natural resources off to American trans nationals and use pro-American governments to use oil revenue on buying American weapons. There was no interest in developing these countries. It was for strategic benefit and neoliberal pilfering of the region. You're the naive gay for thinking otherwise.
Nah, you're a simpleton that only sees one layer of the US neocon strategy.
While it was about oil, it was about controlling the oil market, the petrodollar, and negating oil money to US adversaries. And also about protecting Arabia Saudi and Israel, of course. Hallyburton and the rest were just the means to it and how the US works. >There was no interest in developing these countries.
Wrong. You don't get how the US operates since the aftermath of WW2. The US dumped billions in Iraq and Afghanistan civilian infractructure. Of course it's not charity, but for making these countries work to US interests, but it was a benefit for the locals anyway.
Also the great majority of civilians deaths and casualties were muslims against other muslims while the US just wanted order and didn't really give a fuck about islam unless they behaved like medieval monsters.
The reality is that all those countries, Iran included, are uppity with delusions of grandeur, trapped in the past and too retarded to realize that they could live much better if they were following the West at least superficially, like China did until Xi, or shitholes like the gulf states or Saudi Arabia itself. Just nod and do what you like while keeping western elites happy and nobody would invade you anymore, because we aren't in the XXth century anymore. The game has changed. This was Putin's mistake.
You're a stupid moron, truly. Japan and German were different, they had educated, skilled populations and institutions ready to rebuild the country. What did Afghanistan have? a minority of the country could read and write. Iran had no interest in letting USA develop Iraq as a new front for its military bases. You lost because of Iran, not because Iraqis aren't civilised. You are the one with delusions of grandeur. Your country lost because you and people like you have no idea what you're talking about. You will lose in Ukraine too and you will come up with your own coping mechanisms around that too.
The USA is a crumbling empire and in your nation's last moments you decided to become an empire worshipping fags and trannies. It's hilarious.

Maybe not going for Kiev anymore, Russia's demands for negotiations are for the 4 annexed territories.
>the US lost in Afghanistan
The Soviet Union lost too. The COMBINED Soviet Union. Any idea why, shithead? Here's a direct clue - Moscow being greedy, retarded, deluded and prideful of virtues that anywhere else would be considered abject sins. Moscow was always a place of prideful cowards. Oh, and, since you vatnik-lovers like to worship gulaghomo systematic gayless assrape - Go and suck off an old Kyrgyz for a ruble you disgusting bolshevik whore!
The Afghan government lasted I think 2 years before it collapsed when it was the Soviets involved. How long did it last when Americans pulled out?

>the war is still in the phase of grinding down the Russian army into a pulp. It's the same strategy as used in WW2. By 1943, the Red Army had more veterans than the Wehrmacht. Ukrainians might begin the next phase of the war this Summer or next Winter with regards to capturing territory again.

I'm not american, and while the US occupation was a mishandled disaster based in the naive idea of arabs being civilized plus ranian murderous sabotage that caused the death of hundreds of thousands of civilians, the US unironically achieved their big strategic objectives about the control of the oil market to this day (or you wouldn't still seething about the dollar and muh BRICS)
There's still also 2 US bases in Iraq that have been used against Syria, and could be still used as a staging point to BFTO Iran, mind you.
Meanwhile the retarded Iranian leadership has only bough time at the expense of making the EU tired of their shit, the only faction anymore stopping the US from bombing Iran to the stone age just to make Israel and Saudi Arabi stop whining. >will lose in Ukraine too
No, we won't, because to follow your example, in his war Ukraine is a sane version of Iraq, Russia a pathetic ghetto version of the US, and the US a superpower version of Iran.

those last two cope bases are about supplying bases in Syria, trying to keep Assad from his oil. The original objectives are long gone, Assad isn't going anywhere. USA has lost in the entire region. Iraq even made it illegal to have relations with Israel

The US lost prestige and local influence, but it gained time until becoming the number one oil producer today, and still has the keys of the global oil market system (as Russia has discovered). It still has bases everywhere but Afghanistan and could strike Iran at will. > Iraq even made it illegal to have relations with Israel
Irrelevant, nobody cares.
If the US lost, then Iran won a phyrric victory, because despite their influence over the region they're still behind and underdeveloped while Turkey/Saudi Arabia hate and maneouver against them. Which is funny, because without the retarded religious reasons Israel shouldn't not have any beef with Iran.

>Assad isn't going anywhere
I for one will be very interested in seeing how this prediction holds up once his Russian support dries up completely
okay so we've gone from >Assad must resign immediately, he will lose the civil war
to >Turkey controls some refugee safespace and Jordan dropped a bomb somewhere
We are now back to the norm where USA has more civilians killed by gunfire and Israel has more military checkpoints than Syria.
>Iraq annexed in all but name only
on all levels except physical, Iran is victorious
These regimes derive their power from the martial demographic in the country so the strongman posturing is an investment in their support. Compare that to a country like USA where Biden derives his power from fags morons and garden gnomes. That's why Biden touches children on camera, it's an investment in their support

I don’t get it, it’s not like they’ve lost T34s in Ukraine have they
If only you knew how bad things really are
They can’t spare the manhours or materials to get more T-34’s running
They may not be short on museum piece T-34s, but they are incredibly hard up for qualified tankers and mechanics trying to get the shit in the depots up and running and they probably couldn't spare the manpower to make a bunch of shitty unreliable museum pieces run for a parade.
> I don’t get it, it’s not like they’ve lost T34s in Ukraine have they
Ah the High Desert. I can recognize that shit heap anywhere.
Compare this to last year not just in how many vehicles there were, but the speed in which the vehicles moved. Today's parade went snail pace to make it longer. It literally could've ended in 2 mins if they hadn't gone slow.
Plus the deliberate camera angles.

At this point AI can even translate obscure and mystifying languages like Japanese. So why is Russian so difficult for it?
Because Russians, particularly older Russians, don't actually speak Russian in their daily life. They speak a weird mutt lingo that originated as prison slang, no joke.
and unlike other languages, grammar doesn't mean shit in Russian unironically outside of learning it at an academic level in a western country. You can literally string together any form of 'close-enough' words to get the point across and it will be understood by the person you are talking to. It's a language of drunkards and that makes it quite easy to learn so long as you completely ignore grammar.
>You can literally string together any form of 'close-enough' words to get the point across and it will be understood by the person you are talking to. It's a language of drunkards and that makes it quite easy to learn so long as you completely ignore grammar.
That's based though English works basically the same way, just smash words together
"me need shit please elaborate on toilet" is perfectly understandable chinglish for example
Yeah but you wouldn't expect this level of retarded lingo from the native population.
Anon we shit on ESL speak for a reason, it’s incredibly embarrassing
i mock turd worlders because they're idiots.
also checkem.
its actually kinda cool tbh
are there any other languages like this?
>are there any other languages like this?
none that I have any experience with to recommend, perhaps Finnish though to a much lesser degree but I also am not too familiar with it yet. It's language structure is actually quite close to Japanese which means if you know one you can more easily learn the other though.
how xenophobic is finnet compared to japnet?
Finns have fantastic english like all scandinavians, plus they're too small to be insular
yeah, but how much do they hate the rest of the world?
The only people I've gotten the impression Finns hate are Russians and sometimes Swedes.
Well, and dirkas, but you implied you were talking about people.
Not really xenophobic. We like to banter about Swedes while deep down having an inferiority complex towards them, and currently really dislike Russia because they keep invading their neighbors.
Finnish has some similarities with Japanese, mainly in grammar rules and most words not sounding like Indo-European equivalents. Learning things like verb conjugation and pronounciation should be easy for a Finn and vice versa.

I'd rather say hungarians are your closest lang frens 🙂
It's easy to speak both languages: just put potato between teeth and start talking.
Hungary is on the list of countries most Finns are disgusted with because of Orban. Glad he had zero leverage unlike Turkey.
>hungarians are your closest lang frens
Try again in 5-10 years. Going to take a while to get over Orban's bullshit with NATO application.
Finns hate russians for good reasons and finns are annoyed at swedes because there's a fennoswedish minority that force everything to be in swedish
Finnish has a rigid grammatical structure. The texts sound retarded and childish if the grammar isn't correct.
Yeah but the sentence structure isn't that important.
German is basically legos with word construction but not grammar.
eh, online yes, because it helps them learn to use proper grammar when they have all the time in the world to double and triple check.
irl, I have no problem with folks learning the language, it's a good faith effort, I'm sure I sound just as bad when I try Chinese or Spanish
>works English basically the same way, together smash words just

You will be understood, sure, nothing more.
The average gopmoron doesn't know even half of that shit. He yammers away in prison pidgin.
Highly flexible word order, plus a thick layer of metaphor and proverbs/cultural references.
The former is made possible by robust morphology, i.e. more of the meaning is carried by the word's particular form and less, by its position in a sentence.
Japanese is not an analytic language
it does about as well as it does with Japanese though. Probably because Russian is very proverbial and Japan is very contextual, both things AIs fail at miserably. Google is unironically the best option to use as it never omits anything unless certain character confuse the parser, but the romaji output will be fine. DeepL conveniently forgets things that are really hard for it but has the linguee DB for backup and bing exists.
ChatGPT straight up makes shit up to a worrying degree, so it sucks for Japanese as it generally has no fucking clue so it just fills in the blanks which looks nice to someone who doesn't know that it does this. Might be perfect for Russian though...
Russian grammar: it's fucked mate
So many needless words for "pizdec".
Because they're not speaking russian, they're speaking a butchered ugly slang version of it and everything gets shortened cuz words are too long, lacking exact translation, have to use 6 words to translate 1 english word, so endless loanwords that fas mongoloids mangle, it feels retarded and undeveloped.
What happened to the other 29? I'm guessing half ended up in various oligarch demolition derbies, one or two fell off some trucks, and the rest were accidentally ditched into a river by a man holding a cigarette with both hands.
Designated T-34M Obr. 2023 and sent to Bakhmut.
No. These old tanks are not maintenance free. Every single one of them requires parts and resources, and an ever dwindling supply because there are no more T-34 factories anymore. So you do everything custom, more or less.
Russia can't do that anymore. They can barely get real tanks to the frontlines, let alone obsolete tanks to parades.
>ONE
>FUCKING

Is that a fucking cartoon cat on the turret
No, those are WW2 medals. Not a paint job, mind you, but stickers.
>tfw there are more hairs on copelord's head than capable military vehicles in Russia's arsenal
His forhead is advancing quicker than the frontline
I love how Ztards were all saying that Russia was only using 1% of its army in Ukraine and now they're coping by saying all tanks are fighting in Ukraine
So they had...
1x T-34 (which represented their entire tank corps)
Tigr armored cars.
VPK Ural armored cars.
Z-STS Trucks.
BTR-82 (Ancient APC)
9P78-1 Iskander missiles
S-400 missiles
RT-2PM2 ICBM
VPK-7829 Bumerang IFV's
...And that's it. THAT'S IT! For their victory day parade!
Jesus christ, they had ONE ANCIENT TANK!
How does this not seem like "Oh god, we are out of tanks!" to even a dim-witted russian peasant? How do they think this will not seem like "That's it, this is all we have!" to any russian?!
Jesus christ, this clown parade might be a coffin nail for Putin.
Yeah, it totalled out to 51 vehicles total. They had :
>1 T-34-85
>13 Tiger-Ms
>6 VPK-urals
>10 Akhmat MRAPs
>6 Iskander-ms
>6 S-400
>3 Topol-Ms
>3 Btr-82As
>3 Bumerang
Compare it to last year. I bet most of those do not exist anymore.
It's probably the same T-34, lol.
The little tank that could.
For reference
Jesus fucking christ!
bad version see
for the new one I made
didn't realize they had 10 more MRAPs than last year till I looked back; Chechen ones funnily enough
Because to not accept the lie with a smile will get you killed or worse
>lie with a smile will get you killed
With what, they don't have anything left to kill you with
A dozen men will fuck you up regardless if they have guns or not
Anon, you don't understand vatnik mentality
It's not that they ran out of tanks, no
all tanks are on the front line fighting for motherland, why would you waste them on something trivial as a parade, truly 500IQ move from chief monke
But I thought Russia was only using 10% of its power level!
>all tanks are on the front line
The funny thing is that is not far from the truth, I'd wager that the vast majority of Russia's (operational) tank reserves are in Ukraine, but the problem is that no Russian would want to face the logical conclusion of that train of thought, that is...
>"We are so over-stretched in Ukraine we can't even spare a handful of tanks for our biggest annual event"
Yeah, operational tanks are in ukraine, but we know they probably still have maybe even thousands more tanks that can be used. Each time people say they're running out we see pics of huge trains carrying t-62s and t-55s...
The fact they didn't even put one of those on the parade shows how dire the situation must be.
Yes the rest are off getting blown to scrap in Ukraine
Another possibility is they don’t have the fuel/spare parts to waste them for them. Russian logistics are terrible and despite having ample resources their stuff still has issues reaching the front
compared to last year
>no 4th Guards Tank Division
>No VDV
Wow they were really all wiped out.
>How does this not seem like "Oh god, we are out of tanks!" to even a dim-witted russian peasant?
"Look Ivan Conscriptovitch, tank is da. We clearly have tanks."
Anyone who paid attention to the war would've seen this coming when tanks with parade paintjobs started appearing in Ukraine after their last Virgin Day.
It's the advanced stealth systems present on the other tanks that is the reason you could not see them hohol scum.
>ONE
>FUCKING
>T-34
Smart of them to not put a lot of tanks and nuclear weapons in one place, tbqhwy. Ukraine does have the capacity to strike Moscow.
They had over ten t-34s last year, and those should remain. Is the available DRIVERS the bottleneck?
It could be, but the T-34's transmission isn't exactly a wonder. They probably just couldn't get them running.
They are liberating Bakhmut as we speak.
indeed they are, and soon they will bring the Banan of Backmouth back to the Motherland
it's more likely the crews responsible for maintaining them got shifted over to working on wartime equipment.
>No Armata
>No tanks
>No aviation
>No MLRS

Next year it will be generals on convertables riding in a line, while music plays from a recording.

Why Serbs and Russians are so obsessed about gay sex and male genitals?
He's not Serbian, typical russkie false flag.
Mandick lives in Sweden but is Serbian.
>ONE T-34
What the actual fuck were they thinking
It would have been less embarrassing to have no tanks at all, at least then it would look like some sort of deliberate choice
Surely they have 1 gorillion T-34s they could polish up somewhere, not as if that many have been seen in Ukraine
What did they genuinely mean by this???
>Surely they have 1 gorillion T-34s they could polish up somewhere
Nope. They sold all their T-34's after the end of WW2 and they went to states like Laos and Cambodia etc. So since, Russia has been buying them back and canabilising them to get them working. So no, they just don't have them or have them working. It isn't that easy. It's why Tiger 131 is a marvel of engineering feat, it takes a lot of work to get just one tank working, try doing that with dozens.
After that, all the mechanics/trained crew are trying to get T-72's and shit working for the actual war. They don't have time to work on T-34-85's for a parade.
It’s not for Russia or morale. It’s for Putin’s fragile ego
T-34 is basically a Saint to Russians
Russia is so interesting
Like the ancestors parade where russians devolve into pre-historic style ancestor worship, like not even zeus and hades polytheism, but stuff even before homer.
They're afraid.
Why do you even support Russia when Putin himself said that Kosovo is an independent state and not part of Serbia? Why are you that addicted to Russian cum? Even your fellows aren't that retarded.
OK, I would have understood that they cancelled pretty much all other victory day parades around the country... IF they would have then concentrated the vehicles from them to Moscow.
At least that way they could have had a neat, impressive parade with lots of stuff.
But this just reeks of desperation. Every bit of available material is on the ukrainan front, or already in scrap and ashes. This looks like they CAN NOT get any more than this scraped together.
Mark my words: This was the day when it dawned to ordinary russians that the downfall is close. This is when they realized "Oh god! We are running out of military!"
Nah, they’ll just eat up the “they’re in ukraine” drivel and move on, they don’t care, they’re the ultimate cucks, do nothing until the draft men come to rip your son away, then join the death cult saying you’re glad your son is dying there rather than be useless here!
Sadly true for far too many
Where are they?
I wouldn't worry about it
They were just a beautiful summer's dream.
That's all they ever were.
Forever in our hearts.
Engine probably sounded too scary for Putin
im curious too. they were always going to be parade floats but since they're not even here, what does that imply
Sold to the highest bidder
sold to pooloo land for scrap
Redeemed.
Baked
It rained.
Couldn't risk one of them having technical issues again.
ONE TANK
I DON'T KNOW WHY
Red Square militaria
One tank in my area
I TRIED SO HARD, AND GOT SO FAR
BUT IN THE END, IT DOESN'T EVEN MATTER
Today it was proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that Puccia fucking lost to brave people who had a little help. There's no coming back from an L this big. Ukraine won, it's over.
How probable is it that putin didn't want to show more because they only have t60/t55 and other old shit left?
Judging by that “speech” I doubt he thought about much of anything
They probably have fuckloads of stuff left, but after decades of stealing money that was supposed to pay for upkeep, absolutely none of it works.
They might get the opposite effect now as a result of this parade. They'll boost ukie morale with this. fucking lmfao.

estonian independence day parade could take on and win with ease the russian vday parade.
Estonia had 25 vehicles but it featured more tanks that are actually cutting edge, artillery, anti air systems and modern ifv's and afvs.
A baltic state has not only eclipsed russia eocnomically, it has also eclipsed it militarily.
They didn't even bring out the Armatas, the fucking Armatas were a no show for the big dumb parade, what did they finally run them into the ground with all the parades and propaganda shots and they can't replace the ruined parts?
Can't be showing off the latest and greatest, or else the churkas might start wondering why Ivan got blown up in a T-62 while Armatas were on parade
every single vehicle
My country has better military parades if you ignore the "nukes"
>No Tanks! Just NOOKS!
No way.
No fucking way!
They still have hundereds of T-72s and dozens of T-90s. Don't tell me they couldn't spare 10-20 of each for a Moscow parade. What the hell is happening?
>T-34 hasn't gotten maintenance in a year or so since the specialized mechanics are either too busy or dead
>Utter lack of tank personnel that can be spared
>All the "impressive" looking tanks are at the front, remaining tanks have no ERA and generally look like shit (which is okay at the front, but not in front of the people who still think Russia is overflowing with semi-modern armor)
>Can't pull modern tanks from the front cause they're needed, couldn't put them in the parade in the first place without causing chaos with every unit that doesn't have modern tanks at the front
There's many options
Don't forget logistics
It may have just been straight up too difficult to pull those tanks out from wherever the fuck they currently are, either because of the difficulty of accessing their location or because local logistics networks are already taxed to capacity keeping the front supplied

cope response forces are in full meltdown rn, you either get spammed with the usual morons/fags/trannies cope or they say that it was done on purpouse to be humble.
>To be humble
Russia has borderline literally doing nothing but boasting, grandstanding, and chest thumping this entire debacle of a military campaign, that is the opposite of humble, but then again those people have to huff their copium.
it's actually fucking insane man. i'm in a uni field that studies behaviour and not even i can figure out how utterly mind broken these people are.
and NFKRZ keeps saying that slave mentality doesn't exist.
NFKRZ is a national treasure, vlogger turned russian voice of reason, god bless him
give it time, he'll start saying retarded things soon enough.
What's so hard to understand? It's a thug state. Whatever big monke says, goes. Doesn't matter if it contradicts itself, you nod if you want to keep on living.
A bigger question would be whether this multi-generational abuse can be undone.
They are "humble" in a way of not having self-worth. They are perfectly content to be expandable and generic citizens of "the best and the biggest country in the world, which also singlehandedly defeated Nazi Germany and could have won Cold War by nuking America, but that western spy Gorbachev ruined everything", or something along those lines.
This. They are perfectly content to be worthless expendable chaff, as long as the Rashan state is stronk and threatening.
Heck, Pushkin was writing about the Circassian genocide that the remaining ones will be slaves, but slaves of one of the greatest empires in the world. So it predates gommunizm.
There's a shitload of insane shit in vatnik mentality which are called a "spiritual staple", even Monke was talking about them at some point. Being strong/having a strong military is one of them. I mean a vatmoron can live in a literal garbage dump, freezing and starving to death, and a single thought of his glorious national leader having access to nuclear weaponry capable of destroying half of the world on a whim will keep him running, gloating, boasting and bragging. Which is also why MUH NOOKS point is getting brought up constantly
the russian people have been under one strongman dictator or another with minimal personal ownership or rights of an individual for literally a thousand years. they replaced peasant feudalism with communism and trucking entire populations back and forth to assigned jobs. for which they never saw any reason to work harder or received a benefit from. it was a task in front of them. at a population level, there is a complete lack of understanding about personal choice and a disconnect between actions and personal improvement. they can find pleasure in the posturing because its all they have. It does not need to be matched by work because of that disconnect, posturing is the same thing as achievement.
I mean this completely unironically: you are probably overestimating how repressive the late Tsardom was, and underestimating how bad the Bolshevism fucked Russia

He's a zoomer that grew up on the internet, he even admits that the longer he spends outside Russia the less he understands the place.
It's like this kid I saw post years ago on livejournal, normal modern internet teenager, then suddenly her Saudi dad marries her off and she's gone. There's a whole generation (Or two at this point) of internet natives growing up in fucked up shitholes who are basically modern normal humans surrounded by savages
Chatted with saudi girl on irc in anime channel 20 years ago
She was like arranged marriage is ok, I am gonna jump him on wedding night.
Hope it worked out for her
NFKRZ is a fat pseudo depressed gay grifter. I hate his dumb face

>F-feign weakness when you a-a-are stro..... *breaks out in tears*

>you can't expect us to have tanks at tha parade when there's a war on! You want us to weaken our front lines!
which is basically admitting that Russia is no longer a superpower and barely has enough tanks to hold the position they're currently in
I don't understand how they don't know that such an excuse actually makes the Russian army look worse.
That's a hilarious cope given Russia actually had some to spare for the victory parade back when they were holding twice as much ground. It's basically admitting Ukraine is winning the attrition war.
Thats why they're shitting up Ukrainian comments 24/7
with:
le fighting to the last ukrainian
Ukraine should capitulate, I mean start peace talks while its still populated.
Ukraine is suffering catastrophic losses, why dont you give up, give up, we're trying to murder you all, but we're actually concerned about you.
You should really give up or everybody gets nuked.
Whats funny even if Zelenskyy capitulated people would continue to fight until invaders are annihilated.
ziggers just ignore it, not-ziggers laugh even harder than PrepHole does
Cope is off the charts
>but look at this other parade with all of our vaporware
>the tank that won WW2
>trannies
4chan was telling me that monke would announce that bakhmut had fallen actually. I really don't know how they find a way to go further downhill.
You don't know a shit. There are a lots of tanks and planes. They are just using stealth mode.
It's really amusing that a good chunk of Russia's amarda have basically been turned into scrap heap thanks to $40 drones from aliexpress.
Slava Ukraini! Heroyam Slava!
Where are the captured western vehicles? Schizos promised me captured western vehicles.

Don't worry guys, Tankfest 2023 at Bovington next month, which will hilariously have more modern armour on parade than this.
Can't wait for tankfest to actually have a T-90
Here's an independence day parade in Finland from 2020
?t=154
Way better than this russian one.
why did they have a shot underneath a vehicle? to show that it's moving under its own power?
To dab on wehraboos by displaying a working transmission (pay no attention to the two stationary T-34s off to the side)
Strongest chud in the world
Part of me wonders if this is intentionally designed to galvanize the population into volunteering or to ready them for widespread mobilization. If they can't afford to pull tanks back from the front, why wouldn't they just cancel the parade under the auHispanices of "muh ukie terrorists"? I can't honestly believe that a nation based entirely upon mindfucking their citizens would not realise that parading a single, ancient rust bucket would go down well.
Fuck they gonna do? Thumbs-up a gherkin post on telegram?
No one will do shit until they or their relatives get drafted. And once they do, they'll cope by "it is what it is, guess I gotta defend motherland now".
They still haven't unveiled their big guns
It's actually going to happen, isn't it? T-34s in Ukraine before the year's out and vatmorons will still be saying "a tank is a tank"
every time I run into a young Russian I side eye the fuck out of them because I know they ran the fuck away from Russia
one was like "yeah the consulates are all closed tomorrow" and I was like "oh yeah, it's victory day"
What even happen to rest of the T-34s and the T-14s that they usually pull out for this bullshit? They can't at least scrape those together? Not like either is combat ready anyway. Is the head monke just seething too hard to plan a parade now?
Well it's got a big gun for HE and a machine gun, so it can kinda work as base defence and anti-structure infantry support
>tmw the Bulgarian St.George's day parade had more armour
>get in the T-34 Shinji
top kek
More armor AND jets AND helicopters.
Come to think of it, the policemen strike probably had more armor too, depending on how you measure it. I'm sure there's small time american sheriffs with more millimeters of armor in their auto park than this russian parade showed.
Is that a Steven Seagal's cat?
Mewgal
>cat
>Cats can do judo.
Huh. Learned something today.
They also canceled the annual "tank biathlon" or whatever the fuck it's called earlier this year.
Is Russia out of VDV? Because there wasn't a single VDV soldier int he entire parade.
VDV is on an extended leave
>Is Russia out of VDV?
No, but the Russians ran out of the magic substance they've been using to instantly turn untrained mobiks into paratroopers (blue berets). The few surviving VDV are irreplaceable now. Extinction is inevitable.

The US doesn’t do military parades for a reason. I don’t think “we might have all our working equipment wiped out invading our speedbump neighbor” was on the list but it might be now.
If America had military parades, it would be the biggest, baddest fucking parade in the world. We'd probably launch a nuke in the background or some shit to add to the euphoria of the moment.
Is Ameriburger handegg the closest thing?
Hell, even then they don't fly them out specifically for that occasion. They just schedule a planned routine/training flight to coincide with a match and have them do a flyover as part of it. It's great PR and you're not throwing away any extra time or money.
Those giant military parades China/NK/Russia throws? Complete waste of resources just for a mix of tradition and strong man posturing. Even the biggest parade from any other nations has a strong upper cap for what they're allowed to spend and use.
These regimes derive their power from the martial demographic in the country so the strongman posturing is an investment in their support. Compare that to a country like USA where Biden derives his power from fags morons and garden gnomes. That's why Biden touches children on camera, it's an investment in their support
The western equivalent of military parades in air shows, at least in my opinion
Maybe shit like Bovington, but that's museum tanks and not active duty national military.
The last time the US did a military parade was after Desert Storm. It looked like shit, but that's because it's a real military not an acting troupe.
>Erik Prince gets on youtube in front of a field full of dead blackwater mercs to scream about how the secretary of defense needs to give him more ammo
and here I thought Putin was going to parde Azov POWs and captured equipment through red square. have Russian Youth throw Ukranian and Nazi flags at the foot of Lenin's tomb. What a total let down.

Is it possible to have negative military equipment? Do Ukrainian tractors start showing up next year?
Negative military equipment means the Red Square parade is done by Ukrainian T-64's.

Why does Russia even do military parades anymore? Seems like something from a by gone era.
Its called peacocking

The cat needs to be on top of the tank
You know things are bad when the only cope they can muster is "yeah but muh trannies muh joos muh gays" as they desperately try to ignore their precious parade was reduced to one museum piece and a couple of trucks
At this point, gay club somewhere in texas porbably has more tanks , than we've seen on today's parade.
Fucking kek
Someone need to make a prigojak edit pointing at that tank
see
>ONE FUCKING T-34
It feels like a missed opportunity that they didn't lean into it and have a museum parade. Just roll out a bunch of early military equipment and larpers to show Russia across history.
Imagine seeing pike and shot marching down the red square and other imperial shit. Maybe even some dudes dressed in armour. In a way it would be more interesting and patriotic than seeing modern equipment.
*a T-34
>post this a week ago assuming drone attack on kremlin is a false flag so they have an excuse to not hold the victory day parade this year
>they hold it anyway, meaning it wasn't a false flag, and prove my overexaggerated assumptions almost completely true
i do not have words anymore.
scarily accurate. tell me more secrets of the monke man
why did you rule out ARMATAS?
where are they anyways?
If the Armatas were on the front we'd definitely have seen footage by now, my guess is they're in storage. The only thing more embarrassing then having a drone attack the kremlin at night is having a drone attack and disable an Armata during a parade on live TV.
The people that were working in the Armata must be doing double turns restoring rusted T-whatevers from storage
My bet is they're still in the motor pool. They have to show them off from time to time to spook the media but cannot allow a single T-14 to be lost in combat. They can't put them on the parade either because everyone will mock the T-14 only good as a parade tank which is a big no-no when every Russian knows they spent big bucks in developing all these new weapons.
Suppose that the drone strike was NOT a false flag and the Kremlin doesn't know who did it yet
They cannot discount that it was Ukraine
Therefore there is a non-zero chance of a larger drone breaking through today
And if a drone blew up a T-14 on the May 9th Parade in front of millions of Russians watching on TV and the whole world at least kind of paying attention, it would be even more humiliating than the Moskva being sunk, because at least it was in a recognised combat zone at the time
>anon predicts future with frightening accuracy

Tfw russia underperforms vs meme shitposts making fun of them
So where's the other 29?
Lost somewhere between Moscow mayors new pool and the regional governors shiny Mercedes
I am somewhat impressed by the fact Laos had at least 30 t-34s not just in somewhat working order but also considered them active service.
They never existed. The money to buy them was instead used to buy a (rigorously non-functional) gold plated toilet to be placed inside a very expensive yacht
Check the serial numbers on the parts in the tank from your pic. There are 30 of them.
Probably used as spare parts for the parade ones.
Sun Tzu says to lure the enemy into false hope about your combat (in)abilities. Showing a bad parade intentionally to make Ukraine overconfident is a smart play.
Nobody in Moscow can read though?
I have seen this line parroted by vatmorons more and more these past few days, it makes me laugh, even they can't squirm their way out of how incredibly shit Russia looks.
Russia could not stomach saying "Oh look, we're so weak.". They've always boasted about how big and tough they are, even when they aren't. Simple "humility" is an anathema to Russians. Not even a simple "Yes, we do not have these forces." is too much of a deception for them. Everything is padded. Everything is inflated. Everything is farts in a balloon. Always was. Always will be. They simply can't.
>Simple "humility" is an anathema to Russians.
Russians mentally live in the gulag, humility means you're a bitch and therefore you get fucked both literally and figuratively and become a pariah.
ziggers are on so much damege control copium that there is not a single thread on 2ch about it, fucking hilarious

They've almost certainly tried asking China and North Korea for tanks by now.
Is it true King Monke banned the public from attensingbthe parade? I only see the stands for official seating in these clips.
>1 Alzheimer's tank

Toplels
I missed it, was it one T34 tank only in the ww2 part of the parade orjust the one tank in the whole thing?
1 (one) tank in the whole parade
See
Technically there's 3, but only 1 actually runs
Gee where all other equipment could have gone I wonder. Post your bets PrepHole.
Down payment for Shoigu's new dacha.
Drone footage like this always reminds me of shit like Wargame or Blitzkrieg.
That pic in particular reminds me of fucking up in Blitzkrieg by not reconing enough and rolling into an ambush.
That is very funny but I think the more significant piece is that there wasn't a single combat unit on parade. It was all cadets, rosgvardiya, emergency first responders, etc.
What happened to the Tamanska division lmao?
what they fuck do you think the purpose of a parade is
Jesus, the fucking St Patrick's Day parade here in Ireland had a bigger military presence, we had one (1) less tank, but three (3) more aircraft for the air show.
What an embarrassment.
always the same retarded picture followed by the most retarded takes ever
fuck off back to 4chan, your zigger friends need you there
The picture reminds you fags that you have no fucking idea what you're doing or talking about. You lost in the middle east and you will lose in Ukraine.
Russia lost in the middle east and will lose in Ukraine too.
where? Assad is stable and made peace with Saudi too
>the US lost in Afghanistan
The Soviet Union lost too. The COMBINED Soviet Union. Any idea why, shithead? Here's a direct clue - Moscow being greedy, retarded, deluded and prideful of virtues that anywhere else would be considered abject sins. Moscow was always a place of prideful cowards. Oh, and, since you vatnik-lovers like to worship gulaghomo systematic gayless assrape - Go and suck off an old Kyrgyz for a ruble you disgusting bolshevik whore!
my favourite part about the picture is the way it has to use veteran suicide figures because of how few US servicemen actually died in the middle east
My favorite part is how Iran won on every single front and took far fewer casualties doing so
oh yeah we're all very impressed with Iran's "influence"
If they had an instagram page it would no doubt be the most popular one in its region

truly a reddit tier response. Winter War was before Deep Battle Doctrine when the General Staff was dominated by people that thought tanks were a fad and cavalry would return. Red Army of Eastern Front and Red Army of Winter War are two different eras.
The wars in the middle east is over. Iran won on every single front.
>2514-6541 tanks

While we're on the subject of garden gnomes, why are you guys not retaliating for all those Israeli strikes against iran and iranian proxies? It's like you are scared to hit back? Are you really just letting some garden gnomes kill you and your friends without any real consequences?
He doesnt care about Iran unless its to own the burgers, hes Indian
Israeli bombing is inconsequential. They just stuff your news cycle with it to try to clout how powerful they are. What has it achieved objectively? It's not a winning strategy to change the situation in their favor.
Iran wins if it keeps the war in a mode it can control. It will lose if it enters a hot war because of the tech disparity.
>cant make an actual argument so posts some epic maymay edits
Whats funny is that russian losses are actually larger than what you posted
The US was too naive and believed that retarded arabs would prefer economic development to killing each other over sectarian bullshit.
There's no such problem in Ukraine. They're more like japs or germans after WW2, and have proven that they want to join the West and are better at war than Russia. As a bonus, no western armies are actually fighting beyond giving technical and logistical asistance. US soldiers and glowies are mostly sitting back and enjoying the spectacle with envy.
This was never on offer for the middle east. The US was planning to sell of all the natural resources off to American trans nationals and use pro-American governments to use oil revenue on buying American weapons. There was no interest in developing these countries. It was for strategic benefit and neoliberal pilfering of the region. You're the naive gay for thinking otherwise.
Nah, you're a simpleton that only sees one layer of the US neocon strategy.
While it was about oil, it was about controlling the oil market, the petrodollar, and negating oil money to US adversaries. And also about protecting Arabia Saudi and Israel, of course. Hallyburton and the rest were just the means to it and how the US works.
>There was no interest in developing these countries.
Wrong. You don't get how the US operates since the aftermath of WW2. The US dumped billions in Iraq and Afghanistan civilian infractructure. Of course it's not charity, but for making these countries work to US interests, but it was a benefit for the locals anyway.
Also the great majority of civilians deaths and casualties were muslims against other muslims while the US just wanted order and didn't really give a fuck about islam unless they behaved like medieval monsters.
The reality is that all those countries, Iran included, are uppity with delusions of grandeur, trapped in the past and too retarded to realize that they could live much better if they were following the West at least superficially, like China did until Xi, or shitholes like the gulf states or Saudi Arabia itself. Just nod and do what you like while keeping western elites happy and nobody would invade you anymore, because we aren't in the XXth century anymore. The game has changed. This was Putin's mistake.
You're a stupid moron, truly. Japan and German were different, they had educated, skilled populations and institutions ready to rebuild the country. What did Afghanistan have? a minority of the country could read and write. Iran had no interest in letting USA develop Iraq as a new front for its military bases. You lost because of Iran, not because Iraqis aren't civilised. You are the one with delusions of grandeur. Your country lost because you and people like you have no idea what you're talking about. You will lose in Ukraine too and you will come up with your own coping mechanisms around that too.
The USA is a crumbling empire and in your nation's last moments you decided to become an empire worshipping fags and trannies. It's hilarious.
Bakhmut status?
Still an AoE hitbox for killing Ukrainians to save Zelensky's PR. Send some more, Zelensky!
>W-were just grinding down Ukies in Bakhmut! W-we dont w-want to take it...
Lmao
yes, even your garden gnome media is admitting it now
https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2023/03/13/ukraine-casualties-pessimism-ammunition-shortage/
>The quality of Ukraine’s military force, once considered a substantial advantage over Russia, has been degraded by a year of casualties that have taken many of the most experienced fighters off the battlefield
This is what happens when you rotate your best brigades into Bakhmut and Soledar to defend an AoE hitbox. It's a Russian strat from the Eastern Front. Honestly, the Ukrainians should have known better.
>Russia STILL hasnt taken Bakhmut
>Wagner threatening to ragequit
Lol
the war is still in the phase of grinding down the Ukrainian army into a pulp. It's the same strategy as used in WW2. By 1943, the Red Army had more veterans than the Wehrmacht. Russians might begin the next phase of the war this Summer or next Winter with regards to capturing territory again.
anon you've been saying this since last July
at some point you are just going to have to admit to yourself that you got it wrong
yes I have been saying this since last July. Not in terms of predictions of when offensives begin, but explaining what Russia is doing in Bakhmut.
We are now seeing articles coming out panicking over Ukraine lacking soldiers. All they have left is the 40k soldiers brought in for this counteroffensive. All their other brigades were decimated in Bakhmut and Soledar. I reckon Russia will begin offensives either this Summer or next Winter
Maybe not going for Kiev anymore, Russia's demands for negotiations are for the 4 annexed territories.
The Afghan government lasted I think 2 years before it collapsed when it was the Soviets involved. How long did it last when Americans pulled out?
>The Afghan government lasted I think 2 years before it collapsed
Unironically because of America, kek. Stop embarrassing yourself Iranbro
oh it was because of America that it lasted 2 years? lol nonsense. What happened this time?

FTFY
In this war, Ukraine is the USSR and Russia is a pathetic larp of Nazi Germany
I'm surprised you didn't reference Marvel. What do you know about the Eastern Front? Did you learn about it reading the most upvoted comments on Reddit?
do you really need to ask?
I'm not american, and while the US occupation was a mishandled disaster based in the naive idea of arabs being civilized plus ranian murderous sabotage that caused the death of hundreds of thousands of civilians, the US unironically achieved their big strategic objectives about the control of the oil market to this day (or you wouldn't still seething about the dollar and muh BRICS)
There's still also 2 US bases in Iraq that have been used against Syria, and could be still used as a staging point to BFTO Iran, mind you.
Meanwhile the retarded Iranian leadership has only bough time at the expense of making the EU tired of their shit, the only faction anymore stopping the US from bombing Iran to the stone age just to make Israel and Saudi Arabi stop whining.
>will lose in Ukraine too
No, we won't, because to follow your example, in his war Ukraine is a sane version of Iraq, Russia a pathetic ghetto version of the US, and the US a superpower version of Iran.
those last two cope bases are about supplying bases in Syria, trying to keep Assad from his oil. The original objectives are long gone, Assad isn't going anywhere. USA has lost in the entire region. Iraq even made it illegal to have relations with Israel
>reddit
>marvel
You retarded ziggers make a parody of yourselves trying to fit in
>USA has lost in the entire region
The US lost prestige and local influence, but it gained time until becoming the number one oil producer today, and still has the keys of the global oil market system (as Russia has discovered). It still has bases everywhere but Afghanistan and could strike Iran at will.
> Iraq even made it illegal to have relations with Israel
Irrelevant, nobody cares.
If the US lost, then Iran won a phyrric victory, because despite their influence over the region they're still behind and underdeveloped while Turkey/Saudi Arabia hate and maneouver against them. Which is funny, because without the retarded religious reasons Israel shouldn't not have any beef with Iran.
>Assad isn't going anywhere
I for one will be very interested in seeing how this prediction holds up once his Russian support dries up completely
today i will remind them
so what? Assad still won
won what lmao, turkey still occupies his country and jordan just freely bombed it yesterday
okay so we've gone from
>Assad must resign immediately, he will lose the civil war
to
>Turkey controls some refugee safespace and Jordan dropped a bomb somewhere
We are now back to the norm where USA has more civilians killed by gunfire and Israel has more military checkpoints than Syria.
Even Iraqi oil is largely owned by IRGC
Have a you, little moron
>130,000 veteran suicides

How is /chug/ handling this?
