🀑This is a circus! Three idiots thought they could storm the positions of the 63rd Brigade in the Serebryansky Forest by wearing anti-drone cloaks… in broad daylight.

In reality, they just became an even more visible, clumsy, and downright comical target β€” one you could spot from space. So pilots from the BBS unit, the 107th Battalion, the 105th, and the 55th all swarmed these fools. Even artillery joined in. The result? Obvious. ☺️

Man drone warfare is so crazy

How do you even survive this war as a human?

As a Russian? Surrender.

A single nuclear warhead sent to Kiev and there won't be a single loss to the Russian army. A peace offering would be on the table the next second...

Nuking a capital is just signing the death warrant for your nation.

A few years ago I'd have agreed with you.

With America firmly in Putin's pocket now and Europe dragging their feet on resistance, the possibility that they could just glass Kiev and get away with it is growing.

France would glass Moscow and St. Petersburg without a second thought. Britain would as well, but they may have US interference, same for Germany.

Exactly what happened to the Americans after Hiroshima and Nagasaki

That is all so dumb and useless... Idiots.

I'm completely pro-Ukraine, anti-invasion, anti-Putin. But. I can't take joy and amusement from these three conscripted young people marching obliviously to their death. The emotional tone of this post and many of its comments are fucked up.

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

What do you think they would have done if they weren't detected?

[–] jerkface@lemmy.ca -1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

In your mind, what does that have to do with the emotional tone of this post?

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (2 children)

My point is them being spotted and killed is a good thing for the Ukrainians. I'm not going to blame people for being happy about it. Also you're taking a lot of agency away from the Russians here. A not insignificant number of them are contracted rather than conscripted, especially the ones on the front.

[–] jerkface@lemmy.ca 0 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Regardless of whether they are conscripts or mercs, the whole premise of this post is that they are deeply ignorant. And their ignorance is being exploited to the detriment of both themselves and others. These three people are clearly not people that need to be demonized (*) and dehumanized, except so that we can feel good about killing vulnerable victims on the other side before they can kill us.

*) Criticism and demonization are not the same thing. It is absolutely fair to be critical that they are not sacrificing themselves for others. To mock them as "clowns" and insist that they deserve to die for being stupid is not criticism, it's self-manipulation.

[–] jerkface@lemmy.ca 0 points 2 days ago

Being happy that they were stopped before they could hurt others is a few steps removed.

[–] BetaBlake@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

Nothing you can do against that, that's rough.

[–] BaroqueInMind@lemmy.one 4 points 4 days ago

These dipshit Russians think they are Harry fucking Potter with their thermal cloaks? They should be for use during low-light ops, not broad daylight shit. Glad they are dead, go back to Russia you dumb fucks
