Ukraine

Rules:

  1. No sympathy with the enemy or its collaborators. Russian and North Korean soldiers are fascists committing a genocide. Remember that.

  2. Objective and factual reporting from the battlefield, parliaments, etc. is encouraged, even if it's about bad news for Ukraine.

  3. Insulting Putin and his cronies (Orban, Trump, Musk,...) is absolutely fine but don't use homophobic or similar language against them. Members of the queer community don't deserve to be compared to that scum. Also: Putin disciminates against gay people. If you do as well, you're part of the problem.

  4. Don't insult or use overly harsh language against other commentators.

  5. Don't submit direct links to Twitter/X and Truth Social posts. You may: Post a screenshot + quote, do a full quote and name the author, direct link to a proxy service like xcancel.com, deep link an image embedded in a tweet because Lemmy will cache a copy.

Given how fast the turn around is for some units, I am leaning to believe it. Paired with the lack of body recovery we are likely to just never know for sure. Just one more statistic. Just wish someone got a last interview with the guy asking what he thought about the emma and two moms recruitment ad. Lot of people were hating it at the time and saying this video for the VDV was better. Still has some old comments on it saying so. Still I guess props to the guy for actually joining?!

Just to clarify, she got the potatoes/posted video ~5 days before she claimed they spoke to him. Could be a lie of course, but I'm inclined to think the bag of potatoes was quite small and maybe a gift from a neighbor or something. It's not the 50kg sack we've seen before.
