      Remember all the western media talking about Russian army being on the verge of collapse incessantly?

        They’re fighting with shovels and robbing refrigerators for parts to send back home. They ran out of ammunition after a month and the ghost of Kiev is picking them off from the sky.

      They thought they would fight ill trained and equipped orcs rushing at them in waves to be gunned down.

      Instead they faced well trained and equipped soldiers, with much more artillery and air support than they have and no shortage of ammunition.

        Westoids literally think it’s Lord of the Rings there! They took the orc comments too seriously.

          Westerners believe themselves to be immune to propaganda, while actually the most propagandized people on earth.

          In their defense: Unless you check out alternative media, you only get to hear news straight out the Ukrainian HQ.

    I’ve seen clips and it’s like watching a bunch of dudes play airsoft. They thought war would be a game and are shocked to find that they’re fighting an actual army instead of little kids and idiots with AK-47s

      NCD is definitely one of those subreddits that push people in the west towards wanting to volunteer for Ukraine to defend NATO while radicalizing them to adopt a mish-mash pro-NATO reddt-ideology.
