1) Why do Russian soldiers seem to commit violence with impunity, and how does Russian propaganda help them get away with it? New research piece out now 🧵👇

@donrbanmyxacc @PrettyDracula13 @TheTaijiNews @United24media Ah yes, russians love their braggadocious nationality so much they have to leave russia, to infest other countries just to love it even more. Trying to flex on western social media apps just to feel something is peak russkiy mir.

@Nintendoubt815 @Marksmithwas12 @ufo_nerd49135 @SamTheNicker @NoContextBrits Yup that's curry. Speaking from experience 😄

@Marksmithwas12 @ufo_nerd49135 @SamTheNicker @NoContextBrits It’s definitely curry sauce. Gravy is in the other cup

Thank God, I’m British.

@tweettruth2me @ONEnONLYashleyd He wants to remain relevant but much like his intuition for comedy, his ongoing efforts fall short

@ONEnONLYashleyd Because he doesn’t actually want a discussion

SEC RUBIO: I promise not to change the objectives next week- but just in case, you should write them down: 1. The destruction of earth 2. The severe diminishing of rabbit capabilities to project power and influence 3. Eliminate any obstacles that'd hinder a scenic view of Venus

@KremlinTrolls @realDonaldTrump my sentiment regarding his mental capacity extends to his entire administration. fuck the lot of 'em

The majority in a new poll have realized @realDonaldTrump is mentally unable to serve.

1/ Is the Iran War Donald Trump's Kobayashi Maru? Here's why the classic Star Trek no-win scenario holds lessons for what happens next in the Persian Gulf. ⬇️

@Maks_NAFO_FELLA Jfc. Does Rubio realize he's lost all credibility regarding anything he says with anyone having more than even half the memory of a goldfish?

🇺🇸🇪🇺 Rubio: If we decided tomorrow that we were going to remove our troops from Europe, that would be the end of NATO. 🇨🇺 Rubio: The blackouts in Cuba have nothing to do with us.

@SpockNC Indeed. Colby's approach to Russia & undermining allies lends to the quagmire we now find ourselves globally tho there's a lot of blame to go around.. I just didn't think we'd descend to competing in the same tier of incompetency & douchebaggery as Russia so quickly & effectively

@LeonidasWeiss He’s certainly got to be feeling some internal conflict over the inability of his leadership to rationally articulate the purpose of our operations in Iran or their impact on our coalitions and allies. He’ll be a broken man when he leaves government.

This is an excellent explanation of why we (the US) finds ourselves in this disastrous fiasco of our own making in the Middle East. The military (i.e., CENTCOM) does military planning, not "whole of government" planning. The military has successfully attacked many targets in.../

That was the russians. U.S. Air Force parked its E-3s on the taxiways as Iran has no space recon capability and thus could not know / aim for an E-3 on a taxiway. russia used its space recon satellites to provide Iran with the exact coordinates / time to strike.

❗️❗️❗️ 🇷🇺 Prominent pro-war Russian blogger Yuri Podolyaka admits major setbacks 📌 “We won’t be able to turn the situation around in the coming months. Our opponent (Ukraine) is extremely serious — even NATO is learning from them.” 🔹 Podolyaka stated that Russia is losing across multiple fronts: ▪️ Logistics disrupted for dozens of kilometers ▪️ Weak electronic warfare systems ▪️ Poor or nonexistent communications ▪️ Ukrainian drones are systematically destroying Russian logistics in the rear, causing heavy losses. 📌 “They have surpassed us” in several areas of military technology and innovation, with Ukraine advancing faster in key aspects of modern warfare. 🟦 He added that the Russian army is facing chaos on the front, including communication failures leading to friendly fire incidents, and no sign of victory. 🕹️ Notably, this comes from one of Russia’s most prominent “Z” voices, who in 2022 claimed Kyiv would fall within weeks.

People are going to buy stuff that can take out a tank for €50000 instead of €1000, sure thing. As a volunteer, I’ve been watching the Ukrainian drone technology evolve, alongside the units that implement and even invent it. Russian drone technology evolves at a similar pace. They learn from each other. The current drone units are able to produce high-tech equipment using 3D printers, spare parts from AliExpress and explosives from enemy’s unexploded air bombs, and upgrade it weekly. Yes, sometimes it is the units themselves, not even the mass producers. They design their own drone bombs, napalm throwers, whatever looks convenient for their current frontline situation. Western weapon manufacturers and in many cases – military personnel, - have no freaking idea what they are looking at. Crowdfunded, DYI cyberpunk war, good luck entering this without experience.

@alinusya_thinks @kaiser_kenny @Alex_Oloyede2 @prestonstew_ Then you must be as blind as you are incapable of distinguishing actual nazi behavior.. 🇷🇺 tg routinely share videos of russian atrocities incl executions of Ukrainian POWs. Russians & their useful idiots accusing others of being nazis is peak projection

@kaiser_kenny @Alex_Oloyede2 @prestonstew_ Only a sick nazi will post this - never seen Russians making such videos.

“It’s Ukrainian housewives. They have 3-D printers in the kitchen, and they produce parts for drones. This is not innovation.” -Rheinmetall CEO Armin Papperger

BREAKING: Zelensky just landed in the UAE and signed a defence cooperation agreement with President MBZ. The deal on the table changes everything about this war. Ukraine is offering Gulf states 1,000 drone interceptors per day. Each Sting interceptor costs $2,100. Each Patriot missile it replaces costs $3.9 million. In exchange, Ukraine wants the Patriot missiles the Gulf states are burning through, because Kyiv cannot get enough of them to stop Russian missiles. Read that again. The country America refused to arm fast enough is now arming America’s allies with a weapon that costs 1,857 times less than the one America cannot produce fast enough. The National reported on March 27 that Zelensky told reporters: “We’d like to quietly receive the Patriot missiles we have a deficit of, and give them a corresponding number of interceptors.” AFP confirmed the UAE agreement on March 28. Eleven countries have formally requested Ukraine’s drone defence expertise per Zelensky’s own count. Over 200 Ukrainian military specialists are already deployed across the UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Jordan. Here is the arithmetic that should terrify every Pentagon procurement officer on earth. The United States fired 943 Patriot interceptors in the first four days of the Iran war per a US Congressional study cited by the Jerusalem Post. That is eighteen months of Lockheed Martin’s annual production consumed in 96 hours. Each of those 943 shots cost $3.9 million. Total expenditure: $3.68 billion in four days on defensive interceptions alone. Iran produces 10,000 Shahed drones per month per Reuters. Each drone costs $20,000 to $50,000. The cost exchange ratio is 114 to 1 in Iran’s favour per Military Times. Ukraine’s Sting interceptor inverts this arithmetic entirely. At $2,100, the cost ratio flips from 114-to-1 against America to roughly 10-to-1 against Iran. Ukraine can supply 1,000 per day. That is 30,000 per month against Iran’s 10,000 Shaheds per month. For the first time in this war, the defender’s production rate exceeds the attacker’s production rate at a fraction of the cost. And the country that built this weapon is the same country that Trump publicly rejected. “No, they are not helping. We do not need their help. We know more about drones than anyone else” per Fox News. He doubled down: “The last person we need help from is Zelensky.” Meanwhile the Pentagon notified Congress of plans to redirect $750 million in Ukraine-bound Patriot missiles to Gulf states per House of Saud reporting. America is simultaneously refusing Ukraine’s cheap solution and cannibalising Ukraine’s expensive one. Zelensky framed this explicitly. He told The National: “No matter how many Patriots, THAADs, or other air-defence systems are in the Middle East, that alone is not enough for fully effective air defence.” He told the UK Parliament: “When it comes to shooting down massive Shahed attacks, only Ukrainian experience can really help with this today.” The Pentagon is spending $3.9 million per interception, raiding Swiss fighter jet accounts to cover shortfalls, and diverting Ukraine’s own Patriot supply to the Gulf. Zelensky is offering the same result for $2,100 and producing 1,000 units per day. The market has a word for this kind of disruption. The $2,100 drone is the most important weapon in this war. And the country that built it is the one America said it did not need. Full analysis - open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…

Pussy Riot occupies headquarters of American tech company Ubiquiti which powers Russian war crimes Since the disabling of Starlink, Russian soldiers been panicking: “All we’ve got left now are radios, cables and pigeons.” But Ubiquiti’s hardware has emerged as the favorite replacement.  We demand that Ubiquiti: - Obey U.S. sanctions - Acknowledge Russian military use - Work with Ukraine to stop it

They grew up under the same sky. Now they met through a drone loudspeaker — on opposite sides of the war. A soldier of Ukraine’s 158th Separate Mechanised Brigade, call sign “Volt,” was interrogating a captured Russian serviceman. And then he realised. “This is a bit of a shock for me. I met my fellow countryman. A young guy,” Volt says. The prisoner is Volodymyr Bashmakov, originally from Zaporizhzhia region, Kamyanka-Dniprovska district, village of Velyke Znamia — temporarily occupied territory. He wasn’t born in Russia. He didn’t move there. He was mobilised into the Russian army’s 810th brigade — from occupied Ukrainian land. A few days earlier, fighters of the 158th Brigade on the Northern Slobozhanskyi direction used a drone with a loudspeaker to force five Russian soldiers to surrender. Among them — a neighbour. According to Bashmakov, when Russian troops entered his town, within an hour they imposed a curfew. People were forbidden to leave their homes. Those who violated it were detained, beaten, thrown into pits. First occupation. Then repression. Then mobilisation. This is how Moscow wages war. One defends his country. The other was forced into an enemy uniform — and sent to fight against his own. This is the reality of occupation. When territory is handed over, it is not just land that is lost. It is people. People who will be silenced. People who will be beaten. People who will be mobilised — and sent against Ukraine. That is what occupation means. And that is why Ukraine fights. #Ukraine #WarInUkraine #RussianAggression #OccupiedTerritories #CrimeOfAggression #StandWithUkraine

「ポクロウシクが占領されたらウクライナの負けだ」といった妄言が散見されましたが、現実はまったく異なりましたね。ウクライナは年始から、前線後方に1,250km以上に及ぶ強固な防御線を構築し終えています。 現在のウクライナの防衛ドクトリンは、「物理的な要塞線」と「無人機が支配する電子的なキルゾーン」のハイブリッドによって成立しています 。前者が敵の物理的な前進速度を徹底的に鈍らせ、後者が停滞した敵の突撃部隊や後方支援網を精密に削り取るという、極めて致死性の高い相乗効果を生み出しているのです。 実際、直近の2026年3月中旬にロシア軍が4日間で619回もの猛攻を仕掛けた際にも、ウクライナ軍はこの防衛線を死守しました 。 結果として、ロシアの死傷者数はわずか1週間で約9,000人という持続不可能な規模に達しています 。 プーチン政権はドンバス全域の完全制圧という政治的目標に縛られているため、この強固な防衛線に対して常に「圧倒的に不利な攻撃側」に回らざるを得ないという致命的なジレンマを抱え続けています。 ウクライナ政府が領土割譲を断固として拒否している理由は、単なる主権の問題にとどまりません。現在の戦況において「領土を割譲する」ということは、すなわち「無数のロシア兵の血を吸い、進軍を阻止しているこの強固な防衛線群を無傷で放棄する」ことを意味します。それは、ロシアが本来この防衛線を突破するために支払うはずだった莫大な犠牲（人員、兵器、時間）を、文字通りタダでくれてやることに他なりません。 さらに、ウクライナの真の戦略は前線での「待ち受け」だけにとどまりません。前線の防衛線でロシア軍をすり潰すのと並行して、長距離無人機などを駆使し、ロシア国内の製油所、港湾施設、タンカーといった経済・兵站の心臓部へ戦略的な直接攻撃を激化させています。 この後方攻撃は、前線へ送られるはずの燃料や、戦争を支える外貨獲得源を根元から絶つものであり、防衛線での出血と合わさることでロシアの戦争継続能力に致命的な打撃を与えています。 したがって、ウクライナにとって現在の防衛線を維持することは、単なる「領土の防衛」ではなく、ロシアの戦争遂行能力そのものを確実に枯渇させるための「最も効率的な攻撃手段」なのです。防衛線という名の巨大な「すり鉢」でロシア軍の戦力をすり潰し続ける限り、焦燥に駆られて自滅していくのは、占領地拡大のプレッシャーに追われるロシア側です。 ウクライナの真の勝利条件は、地図上の線を無理に押し返すことではなく、この防衛線の向こう側でロシアの軍事機構が物理的・経済的な限界を迎え、完全に崩壊するその時を待つことだと言えます。

40% of russian 🇷🇺 oil exports are currently stopped after Ukraine 🇺🇦 attacked the Primorsk, Ust-Luga and Novorossiisk crude oil ports. At the same time, the Druzhba pipeline remains closed and multiple refineries have been hit. This is a big blow to Russia. 🧵THREAD🧵1/15 ⬇️
