Special military operation? The one that ended in three days and allowed thousands of young men to go into the newly liberated territories for vacation?
What newly liberated territories? The ones that always belonged to Russia and were mistakenly shown as being Ukrainian?
Thought that ended like 1000 days ago? Wasn't that just a weekend operation?
Blaming Putin or the war lands you straight in prison or a labor camp, of course people don’t blame him.
That's the good case.
Bad case (and IMHO more realistic here) is wing sent straight to the frontlinie instead, with a ticket for the front row of the next wave to assault Ukrainian lines.
Or you get to learn what defenestration means firsthand.
Instead of sending north Koreans to the front lines to be used as cannon fodder, maybe they should have sent them to the farms to grow food.
Can't do that. Then the North Koreans would know what food actually looks like.
Welcome to the eventual mirror image in the USA upcoming next year.
Due to tariffs, groceries will go up but no one will blame Trump for any of the idiotic things he will do that will work towards ruining our economy.
Russian media manipulation was simply a proving ground before implementing it in the USA.
I will be complaining about it, and thanks to the first amendment Donny won’t be able to do shit about my gripes.
Ultimately, the goal of our sanctions is to make this a strategic failure for Russia. And let's define a little bit of what that means.
Strategic success in the 21st century is not about a physical land grab of territory. That's what Putin has done.
In this century, power -- strategic power is increasingly measured and exercised by economic strength, by technological sophistication, and your story -- who you are, what your values are, can you attract ideas and talent and goodwill. On each of those measures, this would be a failure for Russia.

It's also odd the last speech that putin made looks AI generated.
I wonder if he already is hiding in a bunker.
Let them eat shit.
Of course everyone that lives there must support the regime? get real
