I tried not to make rules for this community but y'all wylin'. I'll keep it quick and to the point:
-
Mildly biased headlines and articles are fine, but please do not share opinion pieces or strongly slanted articles here.
-
Reporting content that does not break those rules prohibited.
-
Baiting and drama farming is prohibited. If you're not sure whether or not you're in this category, ask yourself if what you're about to post or comment adds to the discussion of the topic at hand, or if you are trying to get a rise out of someone, make bad-faith accusations against one's character, etc. There's some leeway here because I have a sense of humor though, so don't let this rule scare you.
-
Endorsing or supporting extrajudicial, nonexecutive or nonwar violence is prohibited.
-
Using slurs is expressly prohibited.
-
Using the Poisoning The Well fallacy to attack sources shared in a post is presently not allowed (this rule may change in the future, and isolated instances will not subject you to a permanent ban)

You don't have to believe me, there are any number of reliable objective sources available that will confirm it.
Russia had an enormous stockpile leftover from the Soviet Union and has nearly burned through all of it. Yes, it's taken a few years.
How do you want this to go?
Usually I provide bad faith arguers such as yourself with the links to those credible objective sources and they refuse for some whatever made up reason
Because of course they do
I mean, we're 3 years into the full scale invasion of Ukraine and you seem to be ignorant of a major conflict and genocide on a basic level
Why should that change now?
What I am saying is correct whether you believe me or not, you can FO and stay ignorant for all I care. I am just providing the opportunity not to be
In my dream world I'd like to see Ukraine absolutely destroy Russia and take it over. I don't think that's gonna happen though.
I tried following it at first but I kept seeing tons of conflicting information and it ended up being too much. One day Ukraine has almost won the war, the next day Russia. At the end I was like "why am I even following this war halfway across the world that's only marginally related to America" lol
That is a common misconception. The war in Ukraine is not only marginally related to America.
The outcome of the war in Ukraine will determine the fate of Europe
As I recall the last time that happened, it wasn't marginally related to America.
I suppose being overwhelmed with conflicting information is a common experience for just about everyone. I feel fortunate to have the education and training to be able to make sense of it.
I wouldn't be so quick to underestimate Ukraine's chances, it seems like every time Russia has done that Russia loses another 25,000 soldiers and their accompanying equipment
Fair enough
