[split aurora]

pro-uk people in northern ireland call it londonderry

[snow pecan]

uhhhhhhh that's bad yea?

[unreal path]

(ofc not serious)

[copper monolith]

yes

[unreal path]

I mean that removes one of the biggest forms of trade

[fierce arch]

well ofc its bad

[copper monolith]

now things can't be shipped to Ukraine via Odesa

[snow pecan]

how do they like, combat that then?

[split aurora]

its bad, but to be fair, its entirely internationally legal

[snow pecan]

or maybe they dont?

[split aurora]

uhhh you cant

[copper monolith]

sink them boats

[split aurora]

ukraine doesn't really have a navy

[snow pecan]

i imagine if they send boats it's a standstill or else russia will blame it on them

[split aurora]

ukraine has a couple small boats

ukraines flagship was scuttled

[fierce arch]

According to the not ratified document San Remo Manual on International Law Applicable to Armed Conflicts at Sea, 12 June 1994, a blockade is a legal method of warfare at sea but is governed by rules.

[split aurora]

ukraine just has to endure it

[fierce arch]

oh you said

[split aurora]

and maybe peg some missiles towards the russians

[fierce arch]

legal

i thought that illegal

[split aurora]

and hope for a hit

ukraine sunk a Russian warship the other day

[snow pecan]

are pirates an option /j

[split aurora]

that was pog

[split aurora]

the fuck are pirates gonna do against the Russian navy

[unreal path]

but but this isn't warfare :O it's a special military operation remember

[split aurora]

pirates pray on civilian ships

[snow pecan]

idk man i meant like, ukrainian pirates

[fierce arch]

again

wtf are pirates supposed to do

this is the kind of boats pirates ride in in the 21st century

[split aurora]

they'd just get within 5miles of a ship and get destroyed by 4" cannons

[fierce arch]

you think that stands a chance at a gunship

[snow pecan]

yikes, i get it, thanks

[clear pebble]

You know, I was unironically thinking about using pirates to fight in a proxy war against the Russians... probably a bad idea though

[split aurora]

they couldn't do anything

it'd be like attacking fighter jets with pigeons

pirates work against lightly armed civilians

not a war fleet

this is afaik the largest ship in the black sea fleet

[clear pebble]

I'm not expecting them to win

[split aurora]

gl attacking that with pirates

[split aurora]

all you'd do is cause people to die

for no gain

[clear pebble]

No, instead of attacking Russian warships they could disrupt their cargo supply

[split aurora]

in what sea

they couldn't attack the black sea, due to the amount of russian warships

they couldn't attack the baltics for the same reason

the artic ocean is, well, arctic

and the pacific ocean will drown pirates

note the trends

[clear pebble]

people still go out to protest

while local forces still take out occupants

There is some progress, you might check some of my messages from yesterday to find a message from Mykhailo Podolyak
He previously stated that now russian negotiators speak in a less ultimative manner and are genuinely listening

They understand the absurdity of their military action, but they still follow the illusion, that attacking peaceful citizens and civil structure for 19 days straight is a valid strategy - taken from his tweet today before the negotiations

100%. Russia really doesn’t have the standoff capability to hit any sort of supply lines in Western Ukraine, and that’s the one area where the Ukrainian Air Force is guaranteed to be operating in strength.

Russia would have to risk a large number of manned aircraft to do so.

The Netherlands kinda did have a force on standby to invade Crimea if they didn't get access to that plane. And we did kinda hold a trial against 4 suspects. Buuuuuuuut of course Russia denied everything and didn't cooperate.

Not so long ago i saw a video of another propagandist that claimed how Russia response to "traitor west" was "dedollarisation" and "deoffshoreisation". They're all fucked in the head

[scarlet crown]

It's really not that many but the ice was broken. If Azov pushes them a little more, I think they won't deny in access that much

[copper monolith]

that would be the 2nd time I'd internally cheer on Azov 😔

[scarlet crown]

if i were a russian soldier in Mariupol and knew that Azov is going against us there, i'd fucking run

Azov's already making them count losses, I think a lot of statistics and photos were already posted earlier

[viral junco]

Are the azov no surrender fighters? And is that why they're the most frightening?

https://nitter.net/JessicaFKeyes/status/1503342409828245510#m

A group of british anarchists occupied a russian oligarchs massive home

house is surrounded by british riot police trying to kick them out

absolutely based anarchists

ukranian flags flying from the building

british police defending the russian oligarchs, doesnt really surprise me

[limber wagon]

They're just doing their job

[split aurora]

"They're just following orders"

[limber wagon]

oh please

[split aurora]

Doing your job does not make morally detestable actions wrong

[limber wagon]

are you really gonna compare them to war crimes

[split aurora]

It's the same argument on a different scale

[limber wagon]

We are talking about some officers upholding property lawas or whatever

we are not talking about the likes of genocide. to even compare the 2 is extremely dishonest arguing

[split aurora]

that's not what I am doing

🙂

The police, are in the morale wrong here. Doing your job does not morally permit morally wrong actions, on any scale.

from the lowest level to the highest

[unreal path]

Laws are still laws tho

[split aurora]

Police shouldn't be defending russian oligarchs property

[limber wagon]

they are not, they are upholding property law

[split aurora]

But what is law, and what is moral, are different

[limber wagon]

regardless of who owns said property

[split aurora]

anyway this isn't exactly on topic so Imma leave this here

before we spend an hour discussing the philosophy of law

[unreal path]

I’ll just say I rather not have the police deciding on is morels

[limber wagon]

me neither. That sounds like something that leads to officers acting on their biases

[unreal path]

Also there’s almost no reason to argue morels because they are very subjective

Plus regardless it isn’t gonna help Ukraine

[keen sorrel]

Really dumb stance to take. Ukraine war bad. Breaking into random tangentially related person's house also bad. People with the job of keeping order take issue with the second one, not bad.

If it was your house because someone decided you were related to russia somehow, you wouldn't be here defending it lol

[fierce arch]

when you break the law

you are still breaking the law

no matter how "based" it is

[limber wagon]

Laws should be codified certainly, but I dont think officers should just act however whatever they deem just.

[unreal path]

The issue is even if you agree that morally they shouldn’t help them what happens when there’s someone we think should be helped and they refuse because of their morals

It’s a violation of human rights to discriminate on national or status

Nationality

[limber wagon]

Can the laws themselves be discussed? Sure. Can the methods used by the officers be discussed? Of course. But upholding the law based on personal morals leads to a lot of biases depending on the person.

[unreal path]

We don’t need to stoop down to Russia’s level

[limber wagon]

Which is sadly something we're already seeing a lot. mainly on things like race.

[unreal path]

We gotta be careful of going down a path of dehumanizing Russians that path never ends good

[limber wagon]

Yeah, Val already mentioned increasing numbers of russiaphobia. Sad to see

[split aurora]

The amount of russiaphobia is very disappointing

and horrible to see

[keen sorrel]

It's a pretty concerning thing to see honestly. Imagine if this was pro Russia protestors occupying a notable ukranian's house because they deemed it their's because Russia == Ukraine or whatever. Would any of the "based" people here be siding with the protestors? Absolutely not, but the police would be acting the same in that situation but would be judged differently regardless. Worrying.

[hushed magnet]

yeah but im not a russian oligarch lmao

[keen sorrel]

I'm sure someone could convince half a dozen random people otherwise if they tried

[limber wagon]

it is not anywhere close to a war crime and is not even on the same scale

I just personally don't want to -> I won't

[fierce arch]

they are not committing genocide against millions

they are upholding the law

[keen sorrel]

I'm not sure I'd want to live in a world where the law selectively doesn't apply because the person committing the crime had a good point

[hushed magnet]

tbf thats why they said on a different scale

[fierce arch]

you can kill a mass murderer but that doesn't mean your free of the law

[grand pier]

heck, claiming it is similar to a war crime would be saying the war crimes russia is committing is on the same level as upholding the law and thus technically legitimizes them

well of course its not a war its just russia happening to put their troops in ukraine

with force

and shooting at ukrainians

The distinction is that war is what happens when you're shooting at people and the Russian govmt doesn't consider Ukrainians to be people

they also only ever talk about how ukranian army is bombing all the civilians in Donbass every day

[scarlet crown]

Russian propaganda trying to work at it's fullest while people are slowly finding out the truth

[unreal path]

Oh geez

I mean I’ve even heard some Belarusians are going to fight along side the Ukrainians

Which if that’s true man that’s pretty respectable since you know they would get charged with treason or something

[scarlet crown]

there already are belarusian volunteers and fighters alongside us, I think they joined us like 4-5 days into the war if not earlier

because, surprise surprise, many belarusians also live in Ukraine and won't stand for this nonsense

[unreal path]

Mad respect for them ✊

[unreal path]

Oh yeah doesn’t shock me

[scarlet crown]

There is some threat of Belarus trying to join this war by some russian made provocation, but it's pretty unlikely

[unreal path]

I mean how much of the Belarusian military would even fight

[scarlet crown]

that's the point

[unreal path]

I mean after Russia pretty much threw in their troops and said good luck

[leaden grove]

It’s been there since day 1 but from what I‘ve heard there are huge internal issues within the army so it’s getting more and more unlikely

[unreal path]

Yeah I’ve been hearing that too

[scarlet crown]

Yeah, considering how on the first day they just let russian tanks go through their territory

deployed a few rockets, especially while Lukashenko was on call with Zelenskiy and promised nothing like this would happen, and during the first negotiations in Belarus...

but then china would have russia as their bitch and get massive amounts of gas for pocket change

[unreal path]

I would think China already has enough problems going on and it’s not like they are the little guy I mean they have more weight than the Russians

[leaden grove]

We‘ll see

[unreal path]

Like what is Russia gonna do say we aren’t gonna trade with China if you don’t help us, who would they trade with North Korea? XD

Also if China is gonna do its first military flex towards super power status I have a feeling they rather do it for themselves not for Russia

Like China is wanting to be the next super power would they really want to possibly slow that down for Russia

I feel like China is more likely to help North Korea more

[fierce arch]

china doesn't really like north korea either

i mean they have defense treaties but that's basically only because NK is a buffer

between SK and china

[unreal path]

some of you might ask why the writing says Odesa - Ukraine but in russian language

It's mostly due to national variety of the city, being home to ukrainians, belarusians, russians, jews, so many others

Despite all action happening from 2014 until now, many ukrainians in Odesa speak russian, but they don't forget about their own language and don't outright judge anyone for using russian

I'm not sure I believe this. They've got their own huge ass country with a way higher forest coverage. In what world does it make sense to set up the logistics and infrastructure of a logging operation in a country you're at war special operations with. You would need to ship specialised equipment, operate it and then also transport all that shit back all while there exists the chance of rapidly changing circumstances, such as getting bombed or overrun.

sounds like just another deranged plan to fuckup liberate ukraine, which if that is their plan, they won't get to transport a single log outside of Ukraine

Id imagine if there is any mass deforestation, it would be with fire to raze the land, not to sell/get the logs, just to destroy

Russias increasingly turning to a mass scorched earth policy in ukraine

[scarlet crown]

Even if they would gather it, who'd they sell it to? Gotta be expecting forest fires in LPR and DPR

[limber wagon]

Ukraine is also already pretty deforested. With most of the forests being to the far west or north. Only one small section of the forested part even borders Russia. Or it would have to go through Belarus

meanwhile Russia

[scarlet crown]

Honestly most destruction should be expected

It's already clear that they've lost this war, so now they're trying to cause as much damage to civilian infrastructure

All the schools, hospitals..

[limber wagon]

Yeah, but deforestation is such a convoluted way to do that

Whats easier, setting up deforestation industries in the middle of a warzone or just burning it?

[scarlet crown]

Yeah that's what I mean: they call for a deforestation on paper but will in fact just set shit ablaze

Even then it's such a petty move without concrete logic behind it

the Russians destroyed a big antonov factory in ukraine

Russia deployed 75% of its permanent readiness ground forces to Ukraine, so this would mean it has lost ~6-7% of its total. Keep in mind that much of these losses have been sustained by Russia's elite forces: VDV, spetsnaz, 1st Tank Army, etc. That will take time to reconstitute.

thats 7% of the entire pre-war population

wow

[limber wagon]

Thee Netherlands is aiming to open at least 50k temporary places in the short term and then open more as needed

[clear creek]

What are todays frontlines

[limber wagon]

Dunno how many refugees we'll get, since we're rather far removed from the situation. I image that they will be quite spread across europe eventually, but thats taking a bit longer

But dunno how the long term housing for refugees here is gonna turn out.

[scarlet crown]

Occupants stalled the invasion, some lines of ours are counterattacking

Main goal for now seems to free Mariupol from russian-made hell

[clear creek]

Good

[scarlet crown]

From all the tracked calls, I can confidently say that they're low on morale

Some try to drink their sorrow away, some straight up run abandoning tech

And some tend to looting

Great russian army btw

Main concern, as it always was, is russian dominance in the air

Thus why the whole country pleads EU to close the sky, which is very unlikely

But despite that, donated foreign anti-air defences work excellently

[fierce arch]

russian and ukrainian are mutually intelligible, yes?

the languages

[copper monolith]

How do they even get away with drinking during the war, do their superiors also join in on the sorrow?

[copper monolith]

Yeah it's easier to understand eachother, for the most part

[fierce arch]

so if you understand one

[split aurora]

Partially mutually intelligible

[fierce arch]

you can reasonably understand the other

[split aurora]

intelligible enough to hold a conversation and roughly understand the other

a lot of ukranians learn russian though, so they use that for any extended conversation with russian speakers

[copper monolith]

Yes

[split aurora]

similar to scandanavian languages

[scarlet crown]

actually yes!

[scarlet crown]

partially, but if we take grammar and word forming, ukrainian would be more similar to polish or belarusian

thus why while i don't know either of those languages, i can pretty much understand the context of messages after reading them once or twice

[copper monolith]

Lol

[leaden grove]

If you‘ve got some experience, yes, otherwise it’s mostly individual words and phrases

I‘ve picked up individual words over the past few weeks and you can also often figure things out from context, so it’s reasonable to say that if you spend a few weeks dealing with the other language you‘ll be able to get the gist most of the time

[fierce arch]

what about grammar?

is it understandable

[leaden grove]

Yeah, it is

Though there are some extra verb forms in Ukrainian as far as I‘m aware

Like the present tense form of "to be" doesn’t exist in Russian

[scarlet crown]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQLM62r5nLI&t=716s this might be a useful video for such topic

since they can't get into mykolaiv

from what I can gather, he can also speak English himself a little bit, coming from his speech to NATO in Brussel

there's a new pow interrogation video (which i will not post to avoid controversy here) in which he claims that his column was mainly made out of military orchestra/parade band

they're literally sending in fucking actors

[icy ridge]

Wtf

The orchestra

But why

Sure military orchestra are also trained to fight, but they main thing is you know ...play music ?
