    Hmm, I think any screeching you’re hearing is purely in your own imagination.

    Looking back over the thread, I initially mentioned the Putin army’s habit of raping its own recruits as an example of the Putin regime being a horribly failed state and thus probably an incapable maintainer of nuclear weapons. You responded with what looked like a rhetorical distraction, so I insisted that my example was actually relevant. You’d prefer not to discuss the details, maybe because they involve SA of men, but that’s okay, we can gloss over that.

    Even then, my point still stands: Do you really think you should stand up for Putinism and the way that it actually treats the Russian people?

      In total fairness, they could have abuses of power up to and including SA of many kinds, and it doesn’t necessarily make them bad at maintenance.

      The shit tier job they did on the rest of their materiel, and that leading to the deaths of a bunch of their soldiers, on the other hand, is pretty strong evidence. Are the nukes maintained by maximal Russian patriots?

      The myth of the super capable Russian army also protected Russian interests, and look how that’s going.
