Nice!
There’s a Gilbert and Sullivan style song in this headline somewhere:
Find the Kherson Oblast group and you could kill a hundred troops
Hundred troops?
Hundred troops. Kill them while they eat their soup
Now call the corp’ral on the phone and and have him load up fifty drones
Fifty drones!?
Fifty drones!! And aim them for the Russian domes
Etc
Oh my god, I get that they would’ve later perpetrated death and fear to innocents…
Why am I internally “cheering” for 100 dead people.
Fuck this shit
Ill cheer externally for 100 dead American soldiers if it makes you feel better.
Thugs serving a pedophile tyrant deserve no sympathy.
Hundreds of people die every day for far stupider and much less fair reasons, like pedestrians murdered by car drivers.
Because they were bad people.
Where they, though? People drafted and sent to the front generally have few options. I get that people dying is what happens in war but casting all individual soldiers of one side as “bad”, of the other as “good” just serves to dehumanise people and excuse atrocities.
This was a legitimate military target, but I don’t think anyone should cheer about a hundred dead people.
Of course we should. Russians elected their leaders, followed and cheered them for decades and supported most of their decisions including this war. Don’t get fooled into thinking Russians are just poor, innocent people send to war by their mad leader. It’s an underdeveloped, sick country that uses violence and terror to get what they want. They got what they deserved.
Demonising a whole people like this is in itself wrong.
What is your supposed solution, then? How does one deal with tens of millions of people who are supposedly evil and wrong?
You take away their ability to harm others. In this case you destroy their ability to wage wars. You sanction the shit out of them so that they don’t have enough money to arm themselves and you destroy whatever military they have now. No one is proposing extermination, they just have to become harmless. When they are civilized enough to re-join the international community they are welcomed to do so.
This is the paradox of tolerance in action.
I’m sorry, but the sooner you understand this the better; death is a natural part of life, and life does not always have intrinsic value.
Makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
Same shit I see on Reddit
🥵
lazy ass sons of dogs fake masked “law enforcement officers “
oops
got mixed up with a post about ICE arresting farmworkers in Oregon
Fight the power!
These ones suck too. Close enough 😬
Killing 100 and injuring 100? Nice!
You gotta do the left side of the equation first. They didn’t use any parentheses in the title though. Here, this might help.
(Killing + Injuring) =~ 100
Well that’s a weird thing to do, to add them up like that. Usually you say how many were killed as well as how many were injured, separately.
That’s how casualties are counted. A casualty is someone who’s no longer able to fight, because they’re either dead or badly enough injured that that can’t get immediately patched up and sent back into combat. Either way, the effective manpower is diminished.
If you’re fighting an enemy that’s not completely inhuman, it’s actually more effective to cause lots of injuries to them rather than killing them outright, since then they’ll devote resources to saving their injured comrades, evacuating them, giving them medical care, etc., all of which diverts manpower, logistics and money from their main job of trying to kill you.
That’s all good. I’m just saying in news reporting where I live, killed and injured are always reported separately. It matters.
OK… a typical ratio is 15-20% of casualties are fatalities, but that varies widely according to the mode and intensity of warfare, the effectiveness of medevac and subsequent treatment, how good a shape they were in when they got hit, etc, etc.
But if you’re in the fight, it’s good for you if an opponent becomes unable to fight, regardless of the reason.
Well, that sounds like a good start.
It’s a good thing if they continue to degrade Russian air defenses. More drones coming after Puto!
Let’s hope that, along the way, they take out a few troll farms, too, and do us all a favor.
Bad day for pootles.
Rest in pieces.
