Cope harder. If you don't agree, explain with reasoning, examples and evidence instead.

What warring nation can sustain this kind of losses? Seriously!

Russia experiences deadliest months in Ukrainian with nearly 100,000 soldiers lost

What warring nation can sustain this kind of losses? Seriously!

Yes, it's true that life in Russia is so horrible that people of all ages still sign up for huge $50,000 bonuses. But even if enough new recruits volunteered (there aren't nearly enough) it would cost Russia $5 billion monthly to (ONLY) replace their losses. And that's just the SIGN UP BONUSES that don't include all other military expenditures.

$60 billion annually in the US money just to get them to the frontlines!

One would have to be totally out of whack to believe this is sustainable.

Russia has experienced its two deadliest months in the ongoing Ukrainian conflict, with nearly 100,000 soldiers lost since December's onset.

The Ukrainian Ministry of Defence released figures indicating that Russia suffered losses of 48,670 personnel in December and 48,240 in January, marking these as the most devastating months of the entire conflict.

Russia has been locked in a stalemate with Ukraine as both sides have interchanged military blows, while Putin regularly threatens nuclear action against Ukraine and Western powers.

Putin's troops 'increasingly slaughtering Ukraine captives'
Peace in Ukraine is more likely to come through Putin being abducted by aliens
These casualty numbers, averaging 1,556 people per day, encompass those killed, wounded, captured, or missing, underscoring the Russian leadership's continued readiness to sacrifice lives for their strategic objectives.

According to Ukrainian intelligence, this brings the total Russian losses to 841,660 as Putin's forces persist in launching offensives in the Kursk and Donetsk regions.

Notably, these figures do not account for North Korean troops.

On August 6, AFU invaded the Kursk Oblast in Russia, almost immediately capturing a few hundreds Russian POWs and killing scores of others.

In the 7 months that followed, the Glorious Fascist Armed Forces of the RF have been unable to drive the Ukrainians out. Ukraine still controls around 500 sq. Km. Of territory in Kursk while almost 200 sq. Km. Are still being in the Gray Zone. All in all, 62,000 combined Russo-Korean troops have been unable to defeat 20,000 Ukrainians.

In other news: : Comrade Un removed his cyborgs from the frontlines due to their faster-than-expected obliteration. 4,000 elite North Korean troops are dead and wounded, which is 40% of what he sent to his friend Vlad as a symbol of brotherly love.

In other news: Putin, it seems, has lost all hope to "liberate" Kursk anytime soon. In January he mentioned Kursk just once across all his public speeches.

In other news: Russia hit a boarding school in Unraine-controlled Sudza in Kursk Oblast where a hundred of RUSSIAN civilians was living after previous Russian bombardments had destroyed their own homes. Four people are dead and four are seriously wounded.

On the same day Russia hit an apartment building in Ukraine's Poltava killing 14. Like I said a few posts below, Russia kills Russians and Ukrainians with equal vigor and enthusiasm, and has been doing so for centuries.

For some people, indiscriminate killings of civilians (even your own civilians!) are a war crime. For Russians it's business as usual. Nothing new there.

[Sirioja]

And then there is real inflation in Russia, which stands between 20% and 30%.

And many guys have to go to be killed at war for 2000 € per month, to make survive their family. Wish war will make fast Russia broke.

[Elvis 2008]

Numerous variables were accounted for in the studies you were linked to, some were recent, some older. You obviously didn't bother reading them.

LOL. Ok fine, here is a quote from your POS paper. "In terms of COVID-19 related deaths, red and blue states in 2020 did not differ significantly" and "COVID-19 deaths in 2020 did not significantly correlate with mitigation efforts. " Meta analysis after the Covid epidemic showed none of the interventions you swore by worked. https://www.cochranelibrary.com/cdsr...6207.pub6/full. Feel smart now?

Of course, Democratic douches do not care if something works or not. They spend money and pass laws so it looks like they care. So mask up, kiddies! Zelensky, you need any more money?

But 2021 is the year of the vaccinated, and blue states had more vaccinated people than red states. This from your study, "In terms of COVID-19 related deaths, red and blue states in 2020 did not differ significantly. COVID-19 deaths in 2021, however, were significantly less in blue compared to red states. ".

See Elvis? Suck it, we Dems were way smarter than you Republican retards. That is science baby. Uh, well.

If you use the same lame analysis as the fools in your paper did, the vaccine was killing people in the UK under 60.

Then you get to Germany, and the same pattern emerges. https://dailysceptic.org/2023/02/12/...ighlight=covid.

From the beginning of April 2021 onwards the start of the vaccination campaign excess mortality suddenly increases continuously up to the youngest age groups and the number of stillbirths is increasing. Nine months later, a massive and sustained decrease in live births is observed.

And even if the vaccine worked, there is this https://www.noahsnewsletter.com/p/wh...get-vaccinated.

The risk of death from Covid for 70 year olds is about two orders of magnitude greater than that for 30 year olds, and is about three orders of magnitude greater than that for 20 year olds. This means you need to vaccinate about a thousand 20 year olds to save the same number of lives as vaccinating one 70 year old. For 20 year olds who've already had Covid, it's probably closer to a million.

Uh, why the fuck would anyone as of today be stupid enough to defend vaccinating young men, women of child bearing age, and the absolute most fucking stupid, pregnant women? Not looking good, Paulie. At best, you dumb Democratic douches were saving a few fossils while bumping off newborns.

As for the UK data, like with the red and blue state analysis, in 2021, there is a clear showing of decreased death in the elderly being vaccinated. Okay, Elvis, that is it. We lowered the death rate. Yeah, problem is you did not dive deeper. One paper did and concluded that based on the UK data, you cannot say that the vaccines prevent death, even in the elderly. As to why, there is this, https://www.normanfenton.com/post/si...y-flawedNotice What could possibly explain a 60% increase in non-covid deaths in 2022 among the unvaccinated and a 5% drop in non-covid deaths among the vaccinated?

If the vaccine worked, there should be a lot more deaths in the unvaccinated group when there was a Covid spike, and there was not. There should also be a similar number of non-Covid deaths in the vaccinated and unvaccinated, and once again, there was not.

https://www.researchgate.net/publica...19_vaccination At first glance the ONS data suggest that, in each of the older age groups, all-cause mortality is lower in the vaccinated than the unvaccinated. This conclusion is cast into doubt upon closer inspection of the data due to a range of fundamental inconsistencies and anomalies in the data.

So which is the bigger Democratic douche fuckup, Covid or Ukraine? Man, you dumb Democratic douches leave so many dead bodies behind, it is hard to say. I am going to go with Covid because you douches can still deny shit on Ukraine. Russia is going bankrupt. Putin is not going to be in power in 6 months.

Well, at least we know now why Fauci got pardoned. If the vaxxed pregnant women who had stillborns knew the truth, they would be scratching Fauci's eyes out.

[Xpartan]

Also while we are here, tell us why you believe the current near 10% inflation and 21% interest rates in Russia are no big deal. Tiny just gave us assurances that all would be well soon then went on a much deserved vacation. I'm sure the audience would be interested in some specifics.

Keep in mind the audience will notice if you ignore any of these challenges.

And then there is real inflation in Russia, which stands between 20% and 30%.

[Xpartan]

That would be the biggest touche I've ever read in this forum. That's the worst of it, then there's all the looting, stealing toilets, washing machines, and phone cases. The North Korean twits are getting in on that as well. Cry me a river BR.

It seems Comrade Un isn't happy about the rate of the annihilation of the North Korean glorious forces.

Kim Jong un lashes out at Russia's heavy troop losses

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world...es/ar-AA1y84Bs

Some units of the contingent of more than ten thousand North Korean soldiers who joined the Russian forces fighting the Ukrainian army in the Russian Kursk region have been withdrawn from the front line due to the high number of casualties.

Ukrainian presidential advisor Mikhail Podoliak said, It seems that even Kim Jong-un values the lives of his subjects more than Putin values the lives of Russians.

Mr. Podoliak cites reports from Ukrainian special operations forces as a source of information on the withdrawal of North Korean military units.

Advisor to the Ukrainian President Volodymir Zelensky adds that North Korean President Kim Jong-un considers the 40% loss of troops deployed in Russia to date unacceptable.

Greetings Xpartan,

Who is " you " that you are referring to in your comments?

I am not Russian.

Then try not to sound like a Russian propagandist.

[Elvis 2008]

Here's a few highlights. He sounds like the ideal sidekick for RFK, Jr. LOL.

"Bhattacharya, an economist with a medical degree who never completed a residency and does not practice medicine, is not slated to provide continuity at the NIH. On the contrary, he has called for 'an absolute revamping of the scientific community. '.

"Dismissing this reality is easy when you have never treated a COVID patient in your life and when you co-authored a deeply flawed study in April 2020 that made the virus appear less threatening than it was. Bhattacharya's team drew the blood of over 3,000 people living in Santa Clara County, California, to see how many had antibodies against the coronavirus. They concluded that the virus had infected many more people than suspected, which meant that its fatality rate was lower than expected. Problems, however, were later uncovered: many of the people who had donated blood had not been randomly selected but were residents of a wealthy section of Silicon Valley who had been invited to participate by Bhattacharya's wife; the invitation presented the testing as a way to find out if they could "return to work without fear," thus aiming for people who knew or suspected of having recently been infected; and the entire thing had been funded in part by the founder of JetBlue Airways who wanted to keep his planes in the air. I would argue here that science knelt in front of politics. ".

https://www.mcgill.ca/oss/article/me...dical-research

I cannot believe you still want to talk about this. It is fine to criticize a study for its methodology if the results are way out of line with others and to criticize the funding source, but they were not. https://www.thelancet.com/journals/l.../PIIS1473-3099(20) 30244-9/ fulltext.

For example, some countries are able to invest resources into contact tracing and containing the spread through quarantine and isolation of infected or suspected cases. In Singapore, where these measures have been implemented, the CFR of 631 cases (as of March 25,2020) is 03%.

The trend in mortality reporting for COVID-19 has been typical for emerging infectious diseases. The case fatality rate (CFR) was reported to be 15% (six of 41 patients) in the initial period,1 but this estimate was calculated from a small cohort of hospitalised patients. Subsequently, with more data emerging, the CFR decreased to between 43% and 110%,2,3 and later to 34%. 4 The rate reported outside China in February was even lower (04%; two of 464). 5.

I cannot believe how dumb you are then. You are quoting numbers when there was not proper screening of the whole population to see how many people had been infected with Covid and thinking those early values were real. And this lancet paper was from July 2020. Do you know how to read?

[Paulie97]

The one thing I will agree with you is that Russians and Ukrainians are indeed Brothers and it's such a tragedy that this NATO expansion bullshit pushed them to fight each other. I hope there will be a reconciliation after the war is over when the people of Ukraine will realize that the collective west took them down the primrose path and really doesn't give 2 shits about them. That in my opinion is inevitable.

So your so-called soldiers who are robbing, raping and killing Ukrainian civilians are robbing, raping and killing their own family?

Well, sounds like what Russians have been doing like forever.

Nothing new here.

[Paulie97]

Blue or red in what election? Why not use counties or cities? How did you account for obesity, smoking, diabetes, age ETC? How did you account for interstate transfer of patients? Oh, you did not. You just made that up.

Numerous variables were accounted for in the studies you were linked to, some were recent, some older. You obviously didn't bother reading them. Mitigation measures were demonstrated as effective. You also persistently ignore the fallout from the abundance of self-centered morons like you. That's why death rates were higher in red states.

Yeah, they were so effective that there were more cases in 2021 than 2020.

You just made the case for mitigation measures, which were more prevalent in 2020, while the pandemic didn't get off the ground until April. You completely ignore that COVID hospitalizations were more prevalent among the unvaccinated. Vaccination is also associated with much improved outcomes in those hospitalized.

Yawns. Parroting another Stanford hack I see, who complains that all his colleagues are making fun of him. I'm not surprised since he's drawing sweeping conclusions based on one US county. I'll look up the rebuttals online when I get home from vacation.

Covid wrecked a lot of death in 2020 & 21, many times more than the flu.

P.S. "Virtue signaling?" If caring about the well being of other humans is virtue signaling then sign me up, while you are free to live out your karma.

[Paulie97]

LOL. You just presented a paper claiming double digit GDP contraction. I guess you do not know what that means.

I scanned over the articles I posted recently, and the only one that uses the terminology in question said the exact opposite of what you claim. If I missed something, quote and link us to the content so I can disagree with it.

"Since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the Russian economy has repeatedly defied expectations. Predictions of a double-digit contraction never materialized. On the contrary, GDP grew by 3. 6 percent in 2023 and an expected 4 percent in 2024: rates that both developed and developing nations might envy.” Alexandra Prokopenko

One can familiarize themselves with the entire argument here, while you never rebutted any of it, other than to wrench a quote out of context and mention Russia's trade relations in Asia. The author had already acknowledged these as mitigating factors to sanctions.
