Is there a legal invasion?

Edit: actually, in Russia this invasion is probably legal. Though of course it’s not an invasion.

This.

The Russians are famous for losing ships. They’ve been doing it for fucking years. They lost what two whole fleets to the Japanese a hundred years ago. So, they are just bound to lose a fleet or two in whatever engagement they are in. I’m surprised they haven’t lost one with their African excursions latelt.

Whereas with this, they are supposedly a near peer to the US in land air war (they aren’t). Invasions of Russia tend to turn out poorly. So if this sticks it is just humiliating.

Just because I get a kick out of watching it every once in a while, here is an entertaining summary of the Russo-Japanese war.

I prefed Drachinefel’s video on it, and all the fuckery the Chamcatchka got up to.

Wasn’t there like this whole expedition where a Russian fleet sallied forth to sail basically to Japan or something and they were so fucking incompetent it’s a wonder they didn’t drain the ocean?

Yeah, that was I think the Baltic fleet (might have been Black Sea) going over to do some revenge on the primitive Japanese after the Japanese sunk the Russian Asian fleet.

yeah that one makes me want to see a repeat. it was so perfect, the ideal intersection of hubris vs skill and hilarious ‘doubling down’ on failed adventurism.

just on that note, hey, China, the nine dash thing isn’t working. Instead of picking a fight with the entire south pacific, perhaps… take a cue from the Russo-Japanese war - look north man, there’s shittons of resources up there, and space… tons of space. Hell, get Yongmingcheng back and just… see where it goes.

THE REST OF THE WORLD WILL NOT COME TO RUSSIA’S AID. Give it a nibble, russia’s had ages to exploit these resources and barely sprinkled the lands with their people.

You could fight everyone in the south pacific over taiwan, or, you could fight the second best army in russia. So many benefits.

I’m sure they could come up with a bullshit map somewhere to justify it. Just send it Trump with a sharpie or something.

NonCredibleDefense

!noncredibledefense@sh.itjust.works

Create post

A community for your defence shitposting needs

Rules

1. Be nice

Do not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.

2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes

If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a “credible” source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it’s non-credible. Random twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Low Hanging Fruit thread.

3. Content must be relevant

Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.

4. No racism / hatespeech

No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.

5. No politics

We don’t care if you’re Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.

6. No seriousposting

We don’t want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.

7. No classified material

Classified information is off limits regardless of how “open source” and “easy to find” it is.

8. Source artwork

If you use somebody’s art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art’s source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.

9. No low-effort posts

No egregiously low effort posts. These include Social media screenshots with a title punchline / no punchline, recent (after the start of the Ukraine War) reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Low effort thread instead.

10. Don't get us banned

No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a “haha people that I hate died… haha” punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.
