No not really its just grim

The Russian war effort is nothing more than a cavalcade of self inflicted pain and misery.

From what I understand most did not. If I recall right Russia had an issue with supporting the prison population considering how rampant disease and the like was. I wonder though, drug resistant TB was pretty common in prisons in Russia. Wonder how bad it is spreading in Ukraine considering how easily transmissible it is.

I mean, we already have seen some diseases running unchecked already among deployed Russians, so it really makes you think.

Old donated tanks from scrapyards by NATO countries to the Ukraine runs parallel with draw convicts from prisons to Wagner.

It frees up the budget, space, and passes on the burden of taking care of those scraps till something else happens to them.

Of course more of the convicts should have been planted into the ground.

It almost certainly was. Russia has released convicts out against their enemies before, under the premise that Russia is now on the defensive. But never to a PMC with survivors, so they probably did not account for pardoning violent criminals who basically had free reign over East Ukraine.

So your comparing recycling older tanks that are still proving effective with intentionally liquidating the members of the Russian penal system en-masse, and your only regret is that they didn't send more to the assisted-suicide that is the Bahkmut front.

Good to know.

Even more fun to note the M-55S was actually a mainline Slovanian tank, the best they had available to donate. But whatever.

Yah, just make sure to ignore the fact that one is an inanimate object that is of actual military use and the other is individual who was imprisoned for preying on the innocent.

After these old tanks do their service they won’t return to their countries to literally act as if they’re on the Wild West. Now I’m all for second amendments and shit but can we agree that it is a bad idea to literally arm and train murderous criminals? WITH FULLY AUTOMATIC HIGH CAPACITY WEAPONS?

If people actually know how to read they'd realise it's a comparison of upkeep.

But of course they're too busy calling others tankies instead of improving their literacy.
