The ATGMs were somewhat helpful in creating the carnage. But the real problem was a lack of leadership - leadership that would have been available if the Russian army had a decent program to affirmatively promote minorities, womyn, LGBTQs and transgendered people.

LOL ... but there is a kernel of truth in what you say. I think the Russian military doctrine is very top-down, “do what you’re ordered or else,” and inflexible. The West has moved very far from that model since the 1960’s, because it just doesn’t work in a real battle situation.

You're trying to be sarcastic, but it's kinda looking like that could work for them. Whatever they have now isn't.
