If you can’t understand Russian and Ukrainian and are thought-constrained by the Overton window you won’t find much value there. I do, though >95% of everything is drek and you have to have the time and enough built-in analytics between your ears.

Try Telegram and the Moon of Alabama for that.

A trans what? m2f? f2m?

Do not expect to find facts on Wikipedia when the overall propaganda volume is deafening.

This war started more than a decade ago. Russian Federation only became a party some two years ago.

The next target after Russia loses against NATO will be China actually. And then Iran, North Korea. But you’ll get a total nuclear exchange well before, so it’s academical.

So likely next proxy is Moldova, Romania, Georgia, Belorus. Poland is also a possibility, but not at first. Unless Belorus, but then we’re at tactical nukes stage already.

The conflict started more than a decade ago. Currently it’s a proxy war mostly limited to the territory of Ukraine and Russia. Other countries are in the pipeline.

What does “win” even mean? NATO starting World War 3? Well, they’re getting there.

It’s pretty hard to get banned on all instances of Lemmy. Particularly, your own.

What’s a ‘reddit’?

I also thought they wouldn’t, but it was semaphored clearly well in advance and it absolutely makes sense given it’s West vs. rest of the world war with Russia, China, Iran and North Korea leading the pack. So far it’s a war of attrition the West is clearly losing. Let’s hope it won’t come to a nuclear escalation, where everybody is losing but Death.

They could just take out logistics hubs like railway tunnels and the Odessa port, and destroy the rest of the power plants with few kT tactical nukes. Minimal direct casualties, but plenty dead in the aftermath.

BSW taking 6% out of box (way more in the East) got to count for something.
