Russia has taken to chemically lowering its soldiers’ inhibitions to guarantee these ill-trained civilians and convicts continue to fight no matter the odds in the ongoing war in Ukraine, according to a UK defense think tank.

      They did start the war using Zapp’s “Element of Surprise” tactic. In Futurama, Zapp explained that the key to victory was the element of surprise. Then he yelled surprise, opened a trap door, and dumped his soldiers into an active battle zone.

      Russia, told their soldiers that they were just doing patrols until they had crossed into Ukrainians territory. Then, they let the troops know that they were actually in a war (or whatever nicety they called it early on). “Surprise! You’re getting shot at now!”

    The good ol’ human material strategy! Works like tying 2 Yakovlev YAK-40 turbojets to a train and see where this is going…

    That headline is the most propaganda-ey headline I’ve read so far this war and anyone believing it at face value is a fucking idiot that never does any critical thinking about anything.

    They should run at their officers instead.

    I really don’t care as long as they keep ceding ground to Ukraine.
