Lastest from Russia

[sevbucmash]

You know what's happening in Russia? This is not in the news.



It's called donkey net. Nothing works. WYZE, EZVIZ cameras, don't work, whatsapp, telegram messengers don't work. Sites don't work. You can not use things like cards to pay for stuff, because those are tied to mobile internet. Since last Thursday things don't work. They say it's only mobile internet that does not work. But --



People say that WiFi, or cable and DSL internet also does not work.

They have turned off internet down south, cities like Moscow they did not touch internet.

Nothing extraordinary...

They want to restrict the access of people to the internet. In my view, when war ends, everything will be as it was before war (they call it special war operation). It is extremely important for government to control information field.

Again, do not be depressed by it - it is normal.

Modern warfare is very information-centric. Maybe it's because Russia is finally going to put an end to the war soon hopefully since negotiations have failed.

Not thinking so. If Russia actively bans social media and deprives its citizens of an internet connection, then the end of the war will not be soon. If the state restricts its citizens from the internet, then, obviously, it does not want information about the war to be shared or discussed.

In short, the war is not going to end yet.

That could very well be the case. I'm thinking there's a preparation to a larger operation and the Russian government doesn't want anyone to share logistical information that they see on social media.

Maybe it has to do with keeping people from organizing protests about shortages of gas and diesel.

 

[sevbucmash]

No fuel shortages, that's bs of some sort, I did hear about it previously and messaged people to find out, it's just that, bs. No one reported any problems with fuel, diesel, gas, coal, wood, etc.

I don't know the reason for internet blockage yet, I have internet account there with 4 cameras, it's offline. I can't reach router, cameras are not reachable.

It's all over Western media. Ukranian drones keep hitting refineries.

Russia’s Fuel Crisis Deepens As Kremlin Warns Gas Station Owners

Soaring fuel prices and refinery shutdowns leave pumps empty across Russia, with the Kremlin warning gas station owners not to raise prices.

Who's more important? Distant media chatter or the locals?
I think western media plays the role of AFC's here, and locals are the certified players.

It's going to end badly for Putin and people are already starting to talk out about him openly in ways they never dared to before.

Prices of potatoes have quadrupled and their economy is on the verge of collapse with Putin borrowing from other areas to fund the war effort which has basically accomplished nothing other than bankrupting his country, caused soaring interest rates, killed lots of people and considerably weakened his standing.

Now he apparently is fearful of another coup attempt

My acquittance, from Kazan, that's city on Volga riv, first you got Volgograd, then Saratov, then Togliatti, and then Kazan, as you go upstream. Well he was trying to sign contract and was ready to go without contract as a volunteer, got denied. Front does not need men. You take operations like Barbarossa, Bagration, Overlord. There was a lot of loss of life, and machinery, so much so that massive advances were possible. Here we have fronts that don't need new men.

If you read western media, there is high loss of life, like bible mentioned shortage of basic necessities, total demoralization at home.

What this is, it is a mass disinformation campaign. It is aimed at west first and foremost.

Ukraine can not win war by itself.

Nor can Ukraine win war by itself with supply support from west, we talking about ammunition, machinery, and even mercenaries.

The only way Ukraine can win is to drag United States into this war. This is where this disinformation comes in. It is aimed directly at American and European citizen. Hey look, Russia is doing bad, we go there now we win a quick war. Trump's not a dummy, he said he'll sell weapons to Europeans and with European help Ukraine can win this war. He himself does not want to drag United States into this war. Those bastards in Britain, Germany, France, Poland, they kind of want to go to war and win it, but without United States they can't. So all they can do at the moment is spread disinformation in hopes of changing Trump's and American people's minds.

Something to the tune of this.

Front line reality? It is available from independent map makers. Such as Defense Politics Asia (DPA), or Military Summary. Not providing any links, because it would be pointless, especially if someone is on copium.

Homeland reality? No fuel shortages was noted by millions of people. No demoralization noticed. Potato prices? My auntie went to Switzerland for vacation, my friend is in Egypt, vacationing. People that care about potato prices in Russia live on the other side of the globe.


P.S. - Wagner appears to be in Venezuela.

Let me explain it in another way.

War machine is not just supply of men. It is supply of support, everything from toilet paper to a fighter jet. For war machine to work there has to be massive economy supporting it. We have Russia and China supporting Russian war machine, two major global economies.

Europeans are doing sh*tty economically. Sanctions against Russian oil industry, which provided Germany, Poland, France, Britain with natural gas and oil, have slowed their economies considerably. They weren't doing particularly good to begin with. To go to war they'd need a steady supply of natural gas and oil for their factories -- a pipeline. But they are getting that stuff by boat, via prices they can barely afford. Civilian sector has to cut back on power consumption, because they can not afford it. Europe is virtually broke.

United States has excellent war machine and economy that can, in theory, throw Russian war machine back. That's only theory, because on practice we all know what this will mean. However, there are morons, mainly in Britain, that want NATO to enter Ukraine and article 5 to be invoked, missiles fly, etc.

Back in great patriotic war, for you WW2, operation overlord was won by supply ships that supported men and machinery on the ground. Behind supply ships was great American economy. Operation Bagration was won by mobilization of Russian economy, entire factories were packed and moved east on rail, and of course the land lease, again, American economy helped. Germany in operation Barbarossa won because of they at that moment had great economy, biggest in Europe, however later as British and American planes destroyed their factories and oil supplies, their war machine has seized to be effective. Behind an army there is an economy that makes it move. Europe is broke. Powers, or players that lost this war but can't walk away want United States to enter the Ukrainian theater. This is the reason you two are trying to tell me sh*t, thinking that you tell me something that I don't know, but instead you are victims of enemy propaganda. Enemy because Britain does not have your best interests when they say go to war with Russia. That's just the bottom line.

 

[sevbucmash]

Now Trump's statement:



He also said he'll sell weapons to Europeans.

With your newfound understanding of how war machines work, Trump is a genius. Europe is broke. They can't afford a war. Trump is cooling some hot heads in Europe and Ukraine. He did a similar thing with Israel, when it got wrecked by Iranian rockets. They really expected United States to go to war with Iran.

This war is bound to die out. When? Russia does not want NATO in Ukraine, period. That's one of the objectives. Second objective, Russian language can not be prosecuted.

Yesterday, Tuesday internet came on for a few hours, I was able to see my apartment on cameras, and log in into the router. Numerous people had internet, everyone was happy. Then it went silent again. Then today, so far, it is on and appears to be working properly.

So:

Thirsday
Friday
Saturday
Sunday
Monday
Tuesday

it was off. For what reasons, unknown. It is usually turned off because of drone attacks, sea bound automated crewless boats with super low radar signature, deliver drones near cities from beyond horizon, and then drones take off, guidance happens using mobile internet and VoIP services. So during such attacks internet is usually off. But that happens for a few hours during the night, not every day and not every week.



For what purpose internet was off for almost entire week, is unknown.

Nukes aside, Poland could kick Russia's ass single-handedly. The Russian war machine is spent, and only survives by cajoling cannon fodder to enlist, where they get sent into meat assaults with AK-47s (or whatever the latest version is), where the Ukrainian Heroes pick them off one by one with drones. Ukraine can bomb Russia's infrastructure at will.

СЛАВА УКРАЇНІ ГЕРОЯМ!

 

[sevbucmash]

This is the only reality, anything else is fake.

 

[sevbucmash]

FPV's nowadays is not something special, 5 per person is not unheard of. Before, those were used sparingly, now different story. Front line reports? Type into google Defense Politics Asia. Wyatt from Singapore is sort of removed and unbiased in his reporting. You get what you get, without the noise of propaganda and ideology.

 

[Bokanovsky]

It's all over Western media. Ukranian drones keep hitting refineries.

In that case, you can take it to the bank. Western media would never lie about something.

This is satire, right?
