lmao finnish soldiers
yeah we’ve lost every war we’ve fought against russians, but sure, yeah. This will go extremely well and will definitely not backfire on us at all
But did you read this article about a fascist sniper who ate snow and probably grossly overinflated his killcount
oh buddy, i LIVED those stories. the winter war myth is a one of the two pillars of finnish society, the other being massive russophobia
Do you have any recommendations for sources on the winter war. Wikipedia lists the casualty ratio at ~1:5 in Finland’s favor, and ofc they include sick and frostbitten amongst the soviet losses and don’t appear to for the Finns.
How about that Sisu movie? Poor heckin chungus Finns just wanted to be left alone, but the mean Russians and Germans wouldn’t leave!
Reminds me of the “joke” my Finnish coworker said about Finnish tourists in Russia, how the <insert slur> Slavs would freeze the fish in Lake Ladoga to “lower the mercury” in the fish to levels safe for consumption.
Is the whole thing were you build concentration camps for Finnish Communists part of that myth?
The world begins to settle into a no-longer new century and grapples with the revelation that the world order they imagined; one of unchallenged Western dominion where the only limits on military adventurism would be limited to bizarrely effective Afghan resistance; will not be borne out as had been imagined. The eastern Slavic world is embroiled in war, with the Western powers funneling substantial but inadequate military support to the losing side. The UK has just recently made clear its commitment to the Zionist project, and the memory of pandemic is starting to fade. Warsaw eyes the chaos with an opportunistic glean and begins to imagine that its newfound independence from Muscovite hegemony could even be extended to taking Eastern Galicia by force.
Next up: NATO countries extremely mad that the troops they sent into artillery fire were not immune to Russian shells
I’m still of the opinion that these troops main job is going to be defending Odessa.
Ah, the classic No, no, these are advisors! strategy
I imagine the intent is mostly to keep domestic public from freaking out. That’s basically why we keep hearing the whole “nato isn’t a party to the conflict” line repeated ad nauseam.
So all the libs worried “Putin will invade all of Europe after Ukraine” are saying what now? NATO should invade Russia?
It’s like the West is addicted to war, I wonder why
