I believe that the popularity of The Walking Dead is not because of how zombies are fought, but because it’s a story of humans being humans, oh and there’s a zombie apocalypse.

Good thing this is not true.

You’re probably referring to ruzzia having three times more people than Ukraine. There are several factors why this is not as important as it might seem.

First is that ruzzia is attacking and the attacking side usually sustains 1:3 loss ratio. Second is that their approach was always to disregard their own, so the ratio is at least 1:5, likely even worse. And third, is that despite they have 140 million people, after you deduct women, children, old and sick, and ruzzian tooth to tail ratio of 1:1, you end up with the maximum army of 5 million.

And they already lost 20%. And some of those 20% were actually trained. And men that are fit for army are also for for work.

Which all basically means that if the sanctions pressure is kept, if Ukraine has enough ammunition (and they claim 30% is already made domestically) and as long as Ukraine keeps the loss ratio in its favour, ruzzia will simply implode.

Somebody calculated that at the current “advance” speed, ruzzia will need 140 years to occupy Ukraine. If Ukraine keeps doing what it’s doing, it needs maybe two.

It’s not going to be nice two years, but with a little support, Ukraine is winning and will win.

The war is a tragedy for Ukraine, but every dead or wounded invader is one step closer to victory. Or a million steps in this case.

1’000’000 Слава Україні.

In a way this is the whole point of this war. Ukraine, where people are ready to protest and fight for the common good, Vs ruzzia, where it’s advised to marry a soldier to get the widow’s benefits.

It’s the reason why some russians (not that many) have left the country and some (very few) tried protesting.

After three years of war, though, those joining the army, those working in factories producing shahed drones or other weapons, those supporting the army indirectly, they actually support the war.

Yes, it’s all the result of propaganda, but they do believe the official line, they do think that they’re trying to liberate.

So while it’s illegal to be against war there, very few are breaking that even in their heads. And when we hear “x% of ruzzians want peace”, it only means that they want the victory rather sooner, because their life is somewhat uncomfortable.

Aaaand. See you tomorrow :)

Let’s say it’s an optimistic estimate based on a typical 1:4 rate for an attacking military that cares about their soldiers.

1 (well, maybe two)

2 :)

Nope. 3 as in three or one one one.

Згоден :)

This one’s particularly beautiful because

• it was shot down over ruzzia
• by an F16
• the target was acquired over the horizon by the Swedish AWACS
• the F16 never “saw” the target
• the ruZZian plane never knew it’s coming

3!

And artillery and tanks. ruZZia started the war with it’s traditional doctrine of shoot a lot of artillery, then move tanks, rinse, repeat. Three years in they discovered that suddenly costs a lot of artillery and tanks, so numbers went down.

Now they’re up again and I’m not sure what to make of it. Let’s hope they were given orders “throw everything” and Ukrainians are only happy to do what they’re good at.

Чотири! 4

П’ять. Five.

Among others. It’s a versatile word.

Roku aka six!

I’m already at 7 in my (optimistic) countdown. But I will not cry if I’m a day or two too early.
