Famous PRC (that's China, not Politically Repressive Canada) cook book now translated into Russian:

"100 Ways to Wok Your Dog".

It is amusing that the West feared hoards of Soviet tanks pouring thru the Fulda Gap for years, spent 100’s of billions preparing for that but in reality many of those Soviet tanks would never had made it due to poor design, maintenance as it reminds me of the German Army in WW2 as when a Tank broke down it was left on the side of the road..

Daily Mail propaganda is always good for a laugh.
Those of us who are parents remember what a diaper load smells like and this one is a whopper!
You soil yourself yet again.

It’s the Chinese influence on the Russians.

In the coming worldwide food shortages and famines, dogs and cats will become scarce.

Livestreaming “soldiers”
on TikToc and FB got to be the new DarwinAwards fast track.

I wouldn't call it propaganda so fast. Russian MRE's ARE bad and we know that the logistics have failed on the side of Putin's army.

The poor (And I still feel sympathy) Russian boys are starving and scared.

[FLT-bird]

I don’t believe the endless daily stream of obvious propaganda from the British media in general and the Daily Mail in particular.

[Cronos]

please don't say "Russia.." - rather "Putin.."

The reason is that portraying it as the world vs R is exactly what Putin wants.

Putin wants to frame this as a second "Great Patriotic war" for the motherland

This reminds me of 1920 -- the newly resurrected Polish army helped the Ukrainian army to capture Kyiv. The Bolsheviks then framed it as "The Poles are trying to conquer Russia again, like in 1610" and they got many White Russians to join the Red Army.

Don't play into Putin's hands. This war is Putin's war, not Russia's

I was listening to "the History of China" podcast the other day about the Tang dynasty before the An Lushan rebellion.

what was interesting was that the Chinese would insult Koreans they captured as "dog eaters" - so it seems that eating dogs was a horrific thing for the Chinese at least in the Tang dynasty

So who is driving the Russian tanks, flying the planes and firing the artillery?

[rrrod]

Very good point.

[Cronos]

I’m here 50 miles from the border with Ukraine, in Poland. I can’t verify the claims in this article, but let me tell you, listening to the refugees we go to help at Przemysl, there are atrocities committed by Putin’s army.

I haven’t heard anyone directly talking about rapes, but bombing of homes — yes. And also about the pathetic state of Russian army rations and fuel - i’ve heard direct accounts of that

I’m hoping that the basic humanity can stop some of the Russian soldiers from conducting atrocities against their “East Slavic” brothers.

[Cronos]

tlozo So who is driving the Russian tanks, flying the planes and firing the artillery? -- Russian soldiers no doubt. But they are cannon fodder, treated like beasts and pushed to acting like beasts

This is exactly what happened in WWI, WWII, the Napoleonic wars, Crimean war of the 1850s etc

all I'm saying is that Putin WILL portray this as "defense of the motherland" if we call it anything but "Putin's war"

I want this war to end and the way to do that is not to demonize the Russian people as a whole -- even if some soldiers DO act demonic

[CodeJockey]

Wake me up when they start eating babies. :)

[Tell It Right]

Interesting.

Maybe their tastes changed after they experienced eating dog and washing it down with Tang.

[crz]

Keeps going on like it is here, we will all be eating dogs and cats to survive.
