    Why do these idiots keep publicizing every breath of the UA army like they’re doing investment quarterly reports? Do they think Russian intel workers can’t read English?

    Internet trolls propelled Prigozhin’s rise. Now some celebrate his fall.

    Remember kids, the pen is mightier than the sword, and the meme has higher spread and rate of fire than the machine gun.

      Do they think Russian intel workers can’t read English?

      Yes.

      I forget the source, but I remember watching a video of a Russian and a Ukrainian debating something using Russian, well before the current military operations. Ukrainian called them out for having to have the debate in Russian because “I bet you can’t even speak any English”. Russian guy switched to near perfect English, and Ukrainian guy struggled for about five minutes in very broken English before switching back to Russian. It was pretty embarassing.

        Have you seen videos of post-maidan Ukrainian officials trying to make public speeches in Ukrainian? Klichko for example. It’s embarrassing.

        Ukraine is looking for investors brave enough to bet that it will beat back Russia’s invasion with a simple pitch: High risk can offer high reward.
