    expired artillery munitions

    Do you actually have anything to back up this idea that they’re expired, or is that just something you heard and chose to believe because it fits with the narratives you already accept about “the backwards enemy”?

      Combat videos, sure. It’ll take a minute to find the right ones but it’s not super difficult to find videos of Russians with antique equipment on the front line or showing off out of date munitions.

      No one said they’re backwards dude, I said they’re not capable of keeping production up vrs what they actually use.

        Okay, I’m in no rush. I will wait patiently for evidence of a batch of expired munitions from the DPRK.

        No one said they’re backwards dude

        You must have been lucky enough to miss all the articles in 2022 claiming that Russians were fighting with shovels, or that they had never seen washing machines or paved roads. Or the delightful little not-at-all fascist trend of calling them “orcs”.

          Gotcha.

          I never made that claim, you’re just using it to imply I’m in some way bigoted because I don’t agree with you. Orcs actually comes from a Russian American journalist and a Russian journalist but I’ll let that one slide since it is fairly gross.

            I’m not saying they’re backwards

            No one is saying they’re backwards

            You said the second one, but I am glad you’re not on board with the orc thing

              Read one comment higher and you get:
