----- "knock off....."

In another exchange on this thread about ChatGPT, I cited a Wiki article on "half-truth"

You were told "Mr. James Robinson asked that I not post President Zelinskyy daily address to Ukraine."

This does not comport with what was said. Here is the hotlink:

Understanding context is important to communicate accurately. As Ben Franklin said, “Half a truth is often a great lie.”

Thank you.

My attempt was to explain to E. Pluribus Unum that just as we say God Bless America. Ukraine does the same with Slava Ukraine.

.
Russia has recruited more than 400,000 people in the past year alone — yet the Kremlin still needs more. Despite a slowdown from the 2023 peak, recruitment remains at historically high levels, raising a deeper question about what’s driving this constant demand for manpower.

Behind the headline recruitment figures lies a widening gap between losses and replacements, and a system increasingly reliant on financial incentives to keep numbers up. Military pay has surged far beyond civilian wages, recruitment advertising has shifted online, and the cost of sustaining the war is rising year after year.

This is no longer just about mobilisation or patriotism — it’s about attrition. How many people Russia is losing, how much it is paying to replace them, and whether this model can be sustained over time as economic and demographic pressures continue to build.

For specific details please check out the CHAPTER list below.
