NATO is absolutely not growing stronger. In fact, NATO has now been exposed as a paper tiger that can't even keep up with Russia on basic things like artillery shell production. The myth of NATO wonder weapons has been shattered as well, as everybody can now see how NATO tanks, artillery, HIMARS, and all the other toys are burning in Ukraine. NATO tactics utterly failed as was demonstrated by the disastrous offensive Ukraine attempted last year. And finally, the economies of NATO countries are now in a tailspin leading to increasing bickering within the alliance.

They’ve already given up on their t-14s and haven’t seen the su-57s lately.

It's pretty clearly that you live in a fantasy land and meaningful discussion with you will not be possible. You keep on believing whatever nonsense you need to believe, it's not going to change reality.

I'm sorry, you'll have to speak up, I can't hear you over the sound of Russia being invaded by the country it tried to invade.

Oh man wait till you learn how invading Kursk worked out for Germans last time around. 😂

Putin, after 10 days of Kursk catastrophe, summons Stalin’s ghost

Stalin: “What’s happened?”

Putin: “Nazis are at Kursk! My army is beaten! What should I do?”

Stalin: “Do like me 1943. Send best Ukrainian tropps to the front, and ask the US for arms”

lmao even western media openly admits Kurks is a disaster for Ukraine, yet here you are

Russian residents reported on Telegram that after the attack by the Ukrainian drones, the military airfield looked like footage from an apocalypse movie. “It’s a serious tragedy, folks. This is serious stuff. It’s all fucking on fire. And it’s fucking smoke. It’s all fucking exploding. That’s it,” said one Russian while filming the scene.

None of those airframes are replaceable, Russia is surviving on its inheritance from the USSR, their entire defense industry is crippled by corruption.

But I'm sure all those t-34s should make a difference, who needs modern technology?

You keep on coping there little buddy, it's adorable. I bet sinking a ferry is really going to turn the land war around any day now.

The hardest part is trying to tell the difference between the pictures of Russia before and after a destructive war hits it.

I'm joking, they're always the same picture.

The joke is Russia, and the punchline is that the world feared them for as long as they have.

How can I possibly argue with such a well informed opinion. You clearly have a grasp on what's happening as you've amply demonstrated here.

[–] InternetUser2012@lemmy.today -1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Right? They got rolled and now Putin looks like a bitch. I'm surprised the oligarchs haven't taken his ass out yet.

[–] yogthos@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That's because you are utterly clueless just like your buddy here. Soon things will become clear even to the most dimwitted westerners though. Reality has a way of asserting itself.
