I Suspect that if this were actually true, it would not be reported. Why tip your hand to your adversity. Probably some type of disinformation tactic.

You ever met a Colonel or a captain? From today’s military? They are so full of buzzwords and Silicon Valley jargon that it’s ridiculous.

Do your research if you have the capacity and foresight and you will realize this started back in the early 90s after the old soviet union fell.

As for the rest of your reply. Prove I watch Russian produced videos. If you are referring to this as Russian videos..then you are as ill informed a s to the military situation as any can be.

Russia pays for propaganda produced in other countries. It follows Moscow’s talking points.

You’ve obviously never been to the Ukraine if you want them to “kill each other off” or you are a sociopath. Ukrainians are a beautiful people.

My wife grew up as a Lenin Pioneer. She recognizes Moscow propaganda when she sees it. You are so naive.

You ever met a Colonel or a captain?

Yes. Like daily for 22 years...

From today’s military?

Yes.

Up until Covid I was teaching at Auburn University to many students from Maxwell AFB and the Air War College (AWC). I taught technology after I retired, and even wrote and taught a Manager's Course for Azure Cloud Services. Talk about buzzwords! Seriously, the course was not for the already technical but those who would be in charge of the technicians. The majority just wanted to know what it was all about, beyond the buzz words... They even got credit from the AWC for taking it.

They are so full of buzzwords and Silicon Valley jargon that it’s ridiculous.

Some are, for sure. Most don't. But that's NOTHING new. I remember the late 1970s. As a young airman I met many a Vietnam fighter pilot, brown shoe sergeants and Self Inspection Checklist SAC guys; all full of buzzwords.

There's nothing new here. It's always been that way, forever.

And McPeak's Total Quality Air Force (TQM) of the early 1990s... couldn't be more buzzword that that ride.

Prove it isn’t. Why does it agree with Moscow’s version of the Donbas instead of the Donbas version of the Donbas?

Your points are well made I guess the thing that bothers me is this constant use of the term nazi. It is so tiresome. The nazis did not invent the tactics of secret police, torture, ethnic superiority, propaganda and control of media or desires for land that is not legitimately theirs. Callin anyone who uses these tactics nazis is just dumb and brings emotions to the debate that are not necessary.
