As I’ve suggested for awhile, there is a worsening of the Russian KIA vs. WIA ratio, due to a lack & systemic breakdown of medical evac, the people and armored vehicles required to do it, wounded not being sent to hospitals, as they go AWOL, used instead in wave assaults, increasing drones w/ multiple strikes on target, etc.

Telenko puts the current KIA vs. WIA ratio as MUCH worse than WW1 levels, with herds of PIGS having learned, Pavlovian-style, that if they hear FPVs, that means food.

    Pretty much any pig is a man eating pig, from my understanding. They’ve been used to dispose of bodies before.

      Yes I was making the joke that they would actually be hunting humans for food.

        Would not be surprised if some of those bodies of russian soldiers weren’t quite corpses yet by the time the pigs got to them.

          Of all the horrid ways to go, this has got to be near the top. Eaten alive by pigs after being abducted by Putins goons and dumped on the battlefield to die with a gun.

        We need disclaimers and tags to receive humor. Without those everything must be interpreted as negative-serious and most importantly malicious. For joking you would use /j and serious /s

          When did /s change from sarcasm to serious, or is your post a joke itself?

          Sentence structure sometimes is obvious. “You want ___. Because this is how you get ___” is a known gag format.

            Important note: It’s pronounced “tin-ih-tus,” not “tin-eye-tis.” I assume the resemblance to the common medical suffix “-itis,” meaning “inflammation of,” is the reason it’s commonly mispronounced.

            See, no tags. I can’t tell if you are explaining something to me or calling me a moron so I have no choice but to assume you are trashing my existence

              When in doubt, be charitable. If you go around interpreting things uncharitably to get offended, you’re gonna have a bad time.

                I can see my lampooning of the sarcasm tags backfired and my sarcasm was taken seriously because I didn’t use tags.

                  Adding sarcasm tags wouldn’t make any sense

                So much this! Life is a lot nicer if you always interpret what people say in the best possible way. Pretty much anything can be flipped to a positive if you try hard enough: “You’re a moron” - “Oh, they’re probably just making a joke by exaggerating about something I did.” - Suddenly you’re neither offended nor hurt.

                    Hehe, I try not to come off as overly naive (I’ve been called naive in the sense that someone can do / say something that was clearly intended to hurt me, but which I refuse to acknowledge as such), but I honestly feel like it makes my life more enjoyable when I can go through it convincing myself that more or less everyone is doing their best to be nice, and that if they come off as rude or mean, it’s probably just me misinterpreting them, or them making a mistake (e.g. “Obviously that guy didn’t mean to shoulder-check me, he probably just wasn’t paying attention to where he was walking.”)
