In November they can recruit the Americans that worship Putin and Russia. Just tell them Ukrainians are brown and are eating dogs, they won’t bother to check facts.

Easy: just go through tik tok and find all those proud, young, Z-loving Russian influencers that were so pro-invasion 400 days ago.

The meat grinder is hungry. Time to die for baby Hitler.

That’s about 6 months worth of casualties. He has to make this order twice a year.

Putin has now increased the draft age to 80….

Only way to do that is to draft the youngins, women and kidnapped people at the border for forced conscription. You can’t reproduce those losses in a few months.

People in Russia really need to step up and speak.

Hang on. I order my bank account to increase balance by 180K.
It’s not working? What do you mean the balance has to come from somewhere?

Russia can’t properly train and supply the troops they have right now. The Russian troops will just end up as more fertilizer.

Russia is about to have a high ratio of women to men.

More manure for Ukraine to help with future farming

Seems like Putin’s really ramping up the military. That’s a huge increase in troop numbers.

tbh that’s why ruzzkies will likely win. They gonna overthrow whole Ukraine with russian corpses. They don’t care about their own people.

I wonder how quickly the recently released POW’s were sent back to the front lines. Putin genuinely doesn’t value anything but himself.

And I’m ordering my bank account to increase with 180K EUR. I guess we both have equal chance to succeed.
Russia just needs to reduce its leadership numbers by 1.

More meat for the grinder. There goes Ruzzias future.
“Increase”.
I guess we know how many casualties they need to backfill now.
How?
Pulling in the 80 year-olds now.
