This part of the video is talking about what you are saying almost exactly. Your argument or the argument you support by posting that article has been made over and over since 2014. Its been ruminated since february 24th to try make the west lose interest and slow support for Ukraine. You also claim you do not support Russia OR Ukraine but really you just made it clear you support Russias invasion and Ukraine’s far-right and or NATO and or USA is to blame (which is wat the article says). Because if you where neutral you would see this is a message that support the Kremlin propaganda line.

Great video again, thanks for the share

Omg you are right I never noticed!

First I wish this war was over already. And for Ukraine’s sovereign borders to be restored to the original 2014 ones. You are skipping a lot of factors, like offensive actions being more difficult and more costly compared to defending. First example of that bakhmut a couple of months ago. How many Wagnerites lost while going on an offensive? 20k according to chief orc himself https://www.aljazeera.com/amp/news/2023/5/25/wagner-chief-says-20000-of-its-troops-killed-in-bakhmut-battle that’s with old school meat grinder kill everyone who retreats tactics. So 20k is a low, low estimate.

I think you are referencing an Asia times article…it’s a stretch to say the least. For one not naming these “observers”. https://asiatimes.com/2023/06/is-the-ukrainian-offensive-another-kursk/

They mention themselves that there is no resemblance to the battle in terms of armor, artillery, aircraft or manpower. I wonder what is left to compare then.

Ukraine has no air superiority and cannot call in helicopters or airstrikes at the same rate as Russia.

From the article:

“The Nazi attempt to capture and defeat the Soviet forces at Kursk in western Russia was a massive undertaking, one that bears, in terms of armor, artillery, aircraft and manpower, no real resemblance in scale to the battle now raging in the Zaporizhzhya area. But by other measures there is a comparison to be made.”

"In the Kursk battle, both sides deployed their air forces. Overall, the Luftwaffe had significant success on the battlefield – but at a very high cost. The Luftwaffe deployed fighters, ground attack aircraft and bombers. "

Wait but they’re mentioning aircraft I thought this wasn’t a metric to compare the current counter offensive with.

Oh found one, the whole front in zaporizhzhia is mined, true, the one comparison with Kursk.

“In the 1943 Kursk battle, mines also played a big role. But Wehrmacht anti-tank weapons and Panzer tanks were more important, killing Russian tanks in far greater numbers than the Russians could match in their destruction of German tanks.”

What an article, it’s also the only one I found mentioning “counter offensive ukraine battle of kursk” when I searched on Google on duckduckgo and Kagi.

Not sure what your motivation is, you wished it was going faster? Ukraine is doing fine considering the circumstances*. You wanted to regurgitate some bad article into a low effort Kremlin propaganda message? Why? Your fake tsar Putine just showed the whole world he’s a pussy by first claiming he would show everyone how tough he would be to they who stabbed him in the back. Proceeded to fly to st Petersburg bunker and sending his removed lukashenko to take care of another war criminal. While kadyrovites turned up late but made a TikTok anyways. There’s nothing left, the whole world saw that humiliating Putine, did not result in ANY action. He caved, and the tsar became a 🐓

*Circumstances, no air superiority, 4 different tank platforms to maintain, times the amount of ifv platforms and artillery. Something we forget, no navy, less electronic warfare hardware. Being cruise missiled every night, on civilian and military targets. Ammo shortages, as in cannot fire wall of fire amount of shells like the Russians do. No where near the same amount of bodies to throw into the battle.

"14 Statement by the press service of the President

The Republic of Belarus.

This morning, Russian President Vladimir Putin briefed his Belarusian counterpart on the situation in southern Russia with the private military company Wagner. The heads of state agreed on joint actions.

As a follow-up to the agreements, the President of Belarus, having additionally specified the situation through his own channels, and in agreement with the President of Russia, held talks with the head of PMC Wagner Yevgeny

Prigogine.

Negotiations continued throughout the day. As a result, they came to agreements on the inadmissibility of unleashing a bloody massacre on the territory of Russia. Yevgeny Prigozhin accepted the proposal of the President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko to stop the movement of armed persons of the Wagner company on the territory of Russia and take further steps to de-escalate tensions.

At the moment, on the table is an absolutely profitable and acceptable option for solving the situation, with security guarantees for the Wagner PMC fighters.

As previously reported, also during today, the President of Belarus held two meetings with the power bloc of the country on this situation."

That’s some progress for no official/politician support. Who would have thought that we tracking a Russian convoy not going to a city in Ukraine but one in Russia going to the capital.

I hear you. For what it’s worth it is mentioned in the end of the blog post, the project is open source, people can run their own overseer API and create less strict or more strict whitelists, instances can also be registered to multiple chains. Don’t mistake my enthousiasm for self run open social media platforms for trying to promote a single tool as the the be-all and end-all solution. Under the swiss cheese security model/idea, this could be another tool in the toolbox to curb the annoyance to a point where spam or bots become less effective. Edit: *The be-all and end-all *not be and end all solution

The admin https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/u/db0 from the lemmy.dbzer0.com instance possibly made a solution that uses a chain of trust system between instances to whitelist each other and build larger whitelists to contain the spam/bot problem. Instead of constantly blacklisting. For admins and mods maybe take a look at their blog post explaining it in more detail. https://dbzer0.com/blog/overseer-a-fediverse-chain-of-trust/

https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/u/db0 from lemmy.dbzer0.com just made a blog about a new tool he created to use a chain of trust between instances to whitelist instances in an effort to prevent spam maybe contact them about it? https://dbzer0.com/blog/overseer-a-fediverse-chain-of-trust/
