POV people from post-ussr countries when they read what westerns write about the ussr and communists

Tolstoy and Dostoevsky are the favorite authors of people who don't read.

Yet in year four of this genocide, Western media still publishes pieces trying to “understand” russian perspectives. Influencers explain away civilian massacres. Thousands in Western countries openly support putin. We’re told this is “nuance” or “hearing both sides.”

Ukrainian POWs return with “Glory to russia” burned into their skin with soldering irons by russian doctors. POWd with trident tattoos have had their limbs severed. With axes! These are war crimes committed by regular russian who later having rest from it in Europe

We now have hundreds of documented cases proving ru forces systematically target civilian —while failing to defeat Ukraine’s military. These aren’t “tragic accidents.” They’re deliberate choices captured on video, documented by investigators, verified by multiple sources.

17/ Here should be conclusions, but there will be no. Just sharing with you what long time became reality and now more often appears in information space as new face of war

16/ Recently happened situation: two soldiers, veterans of 22-23 urban battles, returned after rehabilitation and couldn’t reach positions. War changed into something that unclear to nobody except those who fight it in killzone.

15/ Yes. Of course this experience all study, but trust me: study theory and visit at least one time such battlefield… these are two VEEEERY BIG DIFFERENCES.

14/ And yes, forget about tanks and heavy armored vehicles. Now tank that works from open positions is unique situation. War changed forever and in world there are only three armies that ready for it: Ukraine, russia and north korea.

13/ Quality of officers decides everything. Better officers work, better organized work of people and drones - more successful unit. Sudden appearance of enemy near hole — this is fail of defense organization, because infantryman not able to observe battlefield 24/7 and 360°

12/ Successful defense — result of coordinated work: reconnaissance detects enemy, engineers mine paths, artillery and drones destroy. But lack of people and resources — someone from assault groups still gets through and sits there waiting when main forces advance to them.

11/ Both sides actively mine. Where you walked in morning already cannot safely walk in afternoon. Mines disguise as trash, equipment, even dead animals and dropped from drones. Amount and variety of detonators is shocking. Engineers work only in bad weather.

10/ Against drones you can use EW, anti-drone rifles but frequencies constantly change. Individual EW — mandatory for everyone. Problem — batteries. So shotguns and nets is what you believe in! 🙏

9/ I think you already heard about drones on optical fiber? Now they able to fly up to 30 kilometers (!!!). Common tactic: fly quietly, land near road and wait for target. You drive and then straight to your face from 5 meters flies RPG charge attached to drone.

8/ Now most dangerous part of war - logistics. Rotation turns into game with death, shotgun - main weapon of crews. Cars bring to 1-7km to positions. Then on foot with 20-40kg cargo. Soldiers can sit in holes for months. Even for toilet they use plastic, to not reveal themselves

7/ Sky buzzing and humming 24/7 and only thing that saves psyche - thick fog or heavy rain. You just cannot imagine this.Sound of FPV drone for me - most terrible sound on earth. Trenches covered with nets that “catch” them. Drops yes they stress, but it’s nothing compared to FPV

6/ soldiers hold defense in “holes” - quickly dug shelters 2-4 m2. If lucky - in basements.Infantry critically few,so positions scattered at big distance.While someone alive in hole — territory is ours. Often UA and 🐖🐕 hold positions in different ends of same trench

5/ First time I faced this personally in February, when captured Russians often started to take directly in our rear. One-two. They walked not knowing that long time moving in rear areas. Now this turned into tactic.

4/ Usually their commanders just give them device with single point on map and order: reach here at any cost. There they meet those who survived in previous attempts. Those who not survived - lay along the route.
