McGruff: "You use Wikipedia to provide your causality numbers, that’s a joke."

Ukraine's daily Russian losses report:

Wikipedia compiles estimates from several international sources including the US, UK, UN, EU, BBC, Ukraine & others.
They all more-or-less match Ukrainian numbers, with the only major outlier being Russian government propaganda.

So, if you are taking Russian propaganda seriously, then the joke's on you, FRiend.

McGruff: "Trump should fire whoever is giving him causality number.
They don’t match anything from the on the ground reports.
Don’t you think Ukraine would be touting these supposed numbers."

No doubt, Trump's numbers are compilations from DNI, CIA, DIA, NSA & others.
And, in fact, they do well match with those from Ukraine and other western sources.
The great disparity between Russian and Ukrainian battlefield deaths is a reflection of both Russian "meat wave" assault tactics and Russia's corresponding indifference to medical care for wounded troops.

Ukrainians publish their estimates of Russian casualties daily.
They announce their own deaths from time to time.

But, if all you see is Russian propaganda, you won't know anything about that.

I saw something a while ago, I think it was from Kremlin Secrets who is apparently a Kremlin tolerated military blogger. At any rate this figure gave the percent Russians killed (and perhaps missing) as around 80%. I would have guessed at least 50%. But from viewing how the Ukraine drones follow, and kill Russian troops in these meat wave attacks, that higher figure could indeed be correct. The drones even fly into buildings to hunt and kill the fleeing Russians.

Wikipedia was taken over by Deep State disinformation organizations long ago. I use it for chronology or basic bio data (birth, death, positions held) or information about aircraft engines etc. But trolls love wikipedia -it's basically written for them to use to spread disinfo. I recall one time when I discovered 'RevMom' cut and pasted directly from it as if it was her own words.

Wikipedia Blacklists All Conservative Media Outlets, Prevent Any From Being Cited
	02/03/2025 8:04:04 PM PST · by Red Badger · 25 replies Life News ^ | February 03, 2025 | Luis Cornelio Hoping to avoid misinformation about President Donald Trump’s nominees and appointments on Wikipedia? Good luck. Wikipedia has designed a protocol that directly and unerringly produces the worst descriptions about conservatives and Republicans by virtually guaranteeing that right-leaning media sources cannot be cited. The once reliable online encyclopedia ran off the rails under the leadership of its previous CEO Katherine Maher, who made sure that not a single right-leaning outlet was deemed “reliable”—a stark contrast to the 84 percent of leftist media Wikipedia deems reliable. A new study by Media Research Center Free Speech America found that Wikipedia, the encyclopedia behemoth,...

'Trump bad, Obama good' - Wikipedia's bias REVEALED, and how it affects you

A study from the Manhattan Institute, a right-leaning think tank, says it has uncovered 'evidence of political bias embedded in Wikipedia articles.' Donald Trump and other former right-wing presidents are presented in a negative light, the study says, while Barack Obama and other liberal leaders are puffed with positive write-ups.

Wikipedia Co-Founder No Longer Recommends His Online Encyclopedia

Most Google searches rank Wikipedia at the top of the search results page. And YouTube uses it whenever they put one of those annoying “context tabs” on a video. Yet Wikipedia is not considered a reliable source of information by anyone with half a brain. Most..
