Soldiers have been reduced to firing weapons less than once a day and some are resorting to using Second World War-era field guns instead

      It’s incredible how the regime just keeps throwing people into the meat grinder even when it’s abundantly clear that they’ve lost. US managed to put absolute psychopaths in charge.

            Well, they did demonize Russia to oblivion, at least in the eyes of dumb western libs. They did cut Europe off from Russia when it comes to oil and gas (exported via the Nord Stream pipelines, for example). Their private military contractors and their capitalists did get a hefty piece of the pie, not to mention the LNG and oil industry giants and their wealthy capitalist monsters. They did do some damage militarily, even if that was at the expense of countless lives, including of those their fascist puppet state kidnapped off the streets. They massively de-industrialized Europe, shattering its hopes of sovereignty, and now far-right politicians are gaining traction all over the EU.

            At this point, though - I guess it’s just… Throwing “meat” at Russia, even if the loss ratio is 20:1 for the fascist monster state? Milking the situation as much as they can? Buying time to come up with a face-saver, or a distraction (like we see in Zionist-occupied Palestine)? Maybe all of them at the same time…

            How long will the Nazis be able to carry out genocide against the Ukrainian working class? As I used to say - “when the blind are thrown into the meat grinder - others should open their eyes”.

    This will only get worse with the Gaza Strip conflict, less aid will go to them, and could be the excuse for the US to abandon Ukraine
