Time for the latest of cope. I talk to too many people who want 'law and order' and less criminality. They aren't willing to subscribe to harsh window theory with punishing harshly low level crimes and the death penalty for high level crimes. IE: Cutting hands off or Singapore caning for petty theft, nor the death penalty for violent offenders.

Deadass these people are morons. You need to be harsh bottom to top. Store raids would stop near overnight if people seriously risked losing hands.

Another government success story

You know. Our 'leadership' is perfectly emblematic of the empire. Creaky, and essentially having an active stroke in a moment of limbo for all those suspended inside.

3.) People forget too that the whole military is not one whole amorphpus blob that can deploy in one location to fight. No, the military is understaffed, standards lowered, and spread thin across the globe. With 3 MAJOR regions of influence at risk. Eastern Europe, Middle East, and East Asia. Lots for the US to handle all while domestic issues boil still.

1.)

So, over the last year I have gottena a ton of cope over the US military. The Navy and Airforce getting the most cope of the bunch. Don't get me wrong there's a fair amount of established doctrine in place that is competent, but I ALWAYS hear people fall back on our "Technology'. Most of our equipment is modernized stuff out of the 80s now. Not too disimilar to places like Russia. But really IF our tech was so good why do we have questionable programs like the F35 and LCS.

So with dust cleared outside of money this was a retarded move by Prigozhin. May he Rip when he gets a window delivery. Nothing burger bc Ukraine is so exhausted of men. I wonder what bodies next are gonna be forced into the fray.

So one last update tonight. It seems to just be some form of protest for now. Nothing substantial going on other than security forces taking precautions in Moscow. It seems the Deputy Minister of Defense is in Rostov talking with Prigozhin. Russian Media not saying a ton going on and denying the MoD struck Wagner forces at all.

Show thread

So far doesn't seem to be anything super substantive, but it is still interesting to see. What interests me is what spurred this on aside from the criticism that's been long in the air already.

Cont 2:

So essentially the Russian State and Putin will be left aside to let this happen/take a side as of yet. Does not seem overtly violent as of this posting.

Largely a protest by competent military command against incompetent superiors. Who is to say what caused this, but so far from my looking at this is all that can for sure be corroborated based on current actions, and direct video evidence.

Cont:

It appears that Prigozhin's actions have been over long known criticisms of Shoigu and Gerasimov running the war poorly. In so far as they have to lie about numbers, success, and handling the front half of the war while Wagner is the only group really capturing success in offensives. He has not criticized Putin, nor his regime. His words and actions seem to be directed at the MoD, and IF anything were to happen from the actions of Russian Military Apparatuses suggest they won't intervene

Show thread

So my current take on the MoD and Wagner situation (Which is what I will refer to this 'coup' as) is that Prigozhin is holding Rostov rather peacefully all things considered over his beef with the big boys in the Russian MoD. RFA/Nat Guard have been activated, but no real fighting. The FSB isn't doing anything drastic outside of pulling out of offices. So there's no substantive fighting. Moscow looks to just be being secured in a typical 'Just in Case' type of situation

@Tfmonkey I'm expecting we can expect some coverage/analysis of this Russian FSB Wagner situation tomorrow night.
