  1. At least he talks in logic unlike people who be like “Napoleon could’ve swam across the channel and beaten Britain!”

  2. ‘Pretty darn well’ War begins ‘Depends’

  3. @SailorMoon so why these dudes raping each other? Pretty gay

  4.  @TheZachary86  so biased when he says big America with biggest military would stomp on Venezuela or something Or sorry big Russia with largest European army would slam dunk Ukraine, right? Or are you a Russian/Chinese shill and mad the US wins against Russia or China? Cuz that’s 90% of the people who cry about his biases, ironically they cry because they’re mad about their bias not being confirmed

  5.  @TheZachary86  you…you DO realize these are total war analysis without allied intervention? I love the idiots like you who cite the Armenian Azeri video and reality as his Achilles heel, when in real life it wasn’t a total war and Turkey and Russia were quite involved

  6.  @phunkracy  y tho

  7.  @biejaleslol1225  20% of 350,000 isn’t 200,000

  8.  @nismo4x4n  yeah that’s not true, casualties from battles like Smolensk and Borodino were because the Russians shot at them

  9.  @TheZachary86  also how do you provide shore bombardment without parking your boat near the shore
    3
  10. With the Americans and British draining the enemy of their resources and giving the Russians shit tons of resources (70% of total explosive materials, over 50% of total fuel) Read a book

  11. It goes something like “not at all and then oh no the metal hat boys kicked in the door quick everyone fight to the death! Then 1942 came and they learned for the most part how not to be stoooooopid”
    2
  12. That’s exactly why he rated the reserves below the national guard in competency as combat units, the guard still conducts combat deployments and exercises unlike the reserves, since that’s not their purpose, if a reserve unit had to fight a national guard unit the national guard unit should win that fight every time
    2
  13.  @taoliu3949  they get deployed but not as front line infantry my guy, holy shit did I need to specify combat deployments when talking about combat effectiveness? Logistics boy moving boxes ain’t gonna be worth any experience or help him in a firefight like his buddy in a real gunfight
    2
  14.  @elcormoran1  who the fuck asked? What I said was a hyperbolic joke not involving the Russians
    2
  15.  @leopicollo5817  that’s cool and all, but that doesn’t make up for the fact you get your deployment orders long before you get deployed, these Russians got told ‘you’re going to conduct combat operations’ with 24 hours notice Desert storm had 6-8 months by the way of preparation
    2
  16.  @leopicollo5817  desert storm had a 6 month prep period before air operations and another 5 weeks until G day, no, desert storm doesn’t count And I find it highly unlikely a bunch of US ground troops were just sitting on a boat in Guantanamo waiting for the day Grenada had a communist uprising, probably because they didn’t

  17. So you declare woke to be a weakness, somehow Russia beats the west but not Britain You must know nothing about the west
    2
  18.  @mark-se6ef  ah so you’re still contradicting yourself as by your logic the Americans (whose Marines earned the nickname Devil Dogs from:) and the Germans are still prime killing machines, just like the French obviously
    2
  19. Russia refuses to accept a reality in which they aren’t warring with someone, the Romanians and baltics weren’t threats until Russia decided to be belligerent again
    1
  20.  @vibarva  that’s ridiculously dumb, primary source German documents notate who they’re fighting to include ethnicity, the Baltic’s were distinguished from the Belorussians for example, but of course most casualties were Russians, considering how quickly they drove into Russia proper and how long they stayed there, let alone the worlds largest encirclement of over one million men at Bialystok in the opening of Typhoon
    1
  21. That’s the problem You grew up in the times of Russian boogeyman in the dark espousing The Russians don’t matter anymore except when they war crime people like usual, we need to look west to China, not at Russia anymore

  22.  @alexanderbarkman7832  when did the US fight Afghanistan and lose? The 3 day campaign that crushed the ruling government (the taliban) and sent them running into the mountains? Joker
    1
  23.  @alexanderbarkman7832  what surrender? The Afghan government for years called for US withdrawal, then when we oblige them they turn tail and run within a day Besides…who the fuck asked? What relevance does it hold? None? Thought so
    1
  24.  @alexanderbarkman7832  ????????? The Islamic front wasn’t the government And again, who asked? ‘Muh america Afghanistan!’ Is such a stupid line
    1
  25.  @alexanderbarkman7832  puppet regime I don’t know many puppet regimes that get to tell their overlord to go away, you so funny Again though, what relevance to Russia is this? Still waiting on that
    1
  26.  @alexanderbarkman7832  what nation building or host nation assistance is Russia conducting…? Stupid people love to insert parallelism not realizing it’s only in their head
    1
  27.  @alexanderbarkman7832  so are they annexed or are they republics? You can’t have both The doublethink you authoritarian proles come up with is astounding
    1
  28.  @alexanderbarkman7832  no, it’s just a delusional doublethink, I’m sorry you drank the kool-aid
    1
  29.  @taoliu3949  this guy really just said “you don’t compare POGs to combat arms” in a discussion about which group is more combat effective What a fucking joke
    1
  30.  @jwolf4948  your strawman and attempt to use grief as an argument are both deplorable
    1
  31.  @jwolf4948  it has everything to do with strawmans because you’re setting up an argument no one made and trying to prove it wrong Or in short: shoving words in people’s mouths
    1
  32.  @jwolf4948  Also friendly reminder anecdotes aren’t evidence, that’s fantastic every active duty soldier around you was a turd and the national guards (who by the way are combat reservists and have this thing where they do do combat deployments, so again, you’re strawmanning) and army reserves were the ones with their heads on straight, fantastic, no one asked and the 100 people you knew dont make an army But again, it’s all anecdotal so…nevermind I suppose But you’re definitely right, I need to be in some arbitrary branch to make this spooky statement of an infantry company is much much much more combat effective and better trained than the fucking admin company, how dare I say basic logic

  33. Ask the MoD why they have all that then
    1
  34. @Scott Johnston someone didn’t actually read anything about any of the things he just commented, but another ‘muh Afghanistan!’ Because it was the US military and definitely not the ANA who folded, right? The Afghan government had only been demanding US withdrawal for years, but whatever See how the facts and reality just ruin your stupid pseudo intellectual crap where you shoehorn a historical reference?
    1
  35.  @Gubers  nah what do you mean? It’s totally defensive to bomb your neighbor Ukraine when you aren’t Ukraine, on Ukrainian soil, against Ukrainian defenders, as you push forward That’s defensive come on man this isn’t totally a violation of international law and basic logic by a state notorious for invading its neighbors instead of just growing its economy, that’s impossible!

  36. @Scott Johnston LOL what kinda conspiracy theory nut shit is that?
    1
  37. Uh, are you daft?

  38. Russian forces with correct leadership would be a force to be reckoned* with Or, you know, leaders that are informed of the fact they’re about to commence combat operations with more notice than 24 hours See the difference? details
    1
  39.  @leopicollo5817  uh, what? Name me one U.S. combat deployment that was just ‘meh, we’ll just send everyone in country and hope for the best’
    1
  40.  @leopicollo5817  complex operational movement of tens of thousands of men with neighboring units and thousands of vehicles in a hostile environment (which wasn’t expected) to engage in major battle not seen in Europe since the collapse of Yugoslavia aren’t the same as recon forces or ‘soldiers being ready to fight’ As said by Justin Bronk “major formation commanders were given 24 hours notice that they were moving to serious combat operations, in multinational exercises 24 hours is required just to sync up encryption frequencies.”

  41. Grow up

  43. Only a few thousand Russians in country? Not even the Russians say that you g nome

  44. There’s so many jokes in this but my favorite is somehow a recon element of anywhere from 2-10 vehicles was going about fighting whole divisions
    1
  45.  @Raz.C  boy someone really overestimates the success rates of military weapon systems Also how many fucking forests have you seen that allow you to engage with a missile at 4Km? None? Right I’m still laughing thank you very much for the humor

  46. The Israelis and Turks make them, you think NATO wouldn’t have them?

  47. Who the fuck asked?

  48. That’s why Russia has been there for 8 years

  49.  @mark-se6ef  obviously not if you consider the British the cream of the crop You know quite little it seems

  50.  @mark-se6ef  bro the British threw a guy in jail cuz his dog did a Hitler salute, that’s your zenith?! Not people like the poles who put their nuts on the table in front of Russia? Aight

  51. It didn’t, nothing he said was factually wrong I mean, prove it dude, all you gotta do is time stamp it
