do they think Russia is going to invade the fucking UK

[–] keepcarrot@hexbear.net 29 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Russia is simultaneously about to collapse from Ukrainians marching on Moscow but also definitely going to cross several countries in Europe and launch a naval attack on the UK.

It's annoying how the media is treating the latest Ukkkrainian drone attack lmao

[–] WeedReference420@hexbear.net 8 points 1 month ago

Yeah, multiple melts I know have now 180'd and want the war to go on forever again after gradually coming round to realising it was mostly a pointless slaughter, literal goldfish memories.

unironically, yes. they really believe that. stalin did right to stop at berlin but he should've shovelled the rest of europe into the deepest pits of the atlantic until berlin is an atlantic seaport

Russia must secure a stable beans-on-toast supply

[–] cinnaa42@hexbear.net 16 points 1 month ago

Yes, they're convinced that the Russians are going to be landing in Dover any minute now. It's wild, but that's what literally decades of war propaganda does to the brain.

Russia as Britain's "Rival?" The Anglos sure are full of themselves.

[–] Palacegalleryratio@hexbear.net 15 points 1 month ago

Well I’m not sure the British could take on a non military but well equipped entity like DHL, but that won’t exactly inspire people to join up will it?

I'm sure that Russians are shaking in their boots when they hear threats from a small, deindustrialized island nation with a collapsing economy.

Better start taking in those free-loading pensioners

If they can march to the welfare office, they can clear a minefield!

[–] Evilphd666@hexbear.net 8 points 1 month ago

Python like skit of pushing pensioners in wheel chairs equiped with dangling chains to clear minefield.

If someone pitched Penal Units for the unemployed to Starmer after he'd just done blow he'd probably consider it

[–] sexywheat@hexbear.net 22 points 1 month ago

lmao. good luck with that stalin-approval

[–] grandepequeno@hexbear.net 22 points 1 month ago

You gotta be a real schmuck to be british and join the army

[–] Euergetes@hexbear.net 19 points 1 month ago

army needs more men to secure the saxon shore against germanic incursions

But why don't you want to do that? Everyone just accepts ok lets go to war with Russia just because. Russia hasn't struck the UK to my knowledge. Then again this is Kid Starver speaking so.....yea

Thinking of those "man on the street" interviews with pro-Ukraine demonstrators in the UK where every single military aged male who said that Ukraine should keep fighting also said they weren't interested in joining the fight themselves

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Ukraine should just use the "replace government with puppet" diplomatic actions on Romania and Moldova, and then use the "create army from puppet" ability. Bam! Instant free manpower. SMH, it's like these guys have no idea how war works.
