I have never thought before, how governments could legitimately (in my eyes) forbid drug and alcohol abuse due to military readiness issues.
That is to say, a population that gets high/drunk is one that can’t be well called up for service.
I have never liked the Libertarian position on drugs but I never thought of this argument until now.
I always go to Business Insider looking for the unbiased truth. LOL /sarc

Same old same old.
Russians dead....20,000
Ukrainians dead.......0
Correct. We can't call up as many boys as we did during the World Wars.
It sounds like the Russian Army is as bad off as FJB’s new “Army” in this country. Participation trophy “winners” don’t make good soldiers.
Sure they do. And the Russians are out of missiles too.
Weren’t the Russians supposed to have taken Kiev like 15 months ago?

I don’t believe any information about this regional conflict in any form of media.
Why is there so little video coverage? The entire thing could be made up for all I know at this point.
UK “intel” said Trump peed on prostitutes. Same crap here.
>Why is there so little video coverage?
I’ve heard that there is a great deal of coverage on telegram but I don’t have a telegram account so I can not verify this assertion.
Reddit has lots of videos.
Heavy alcohol consumption and hypothermia...versus another war scenario that causes my death? Bottoms up!

The US military has tried prohibition a bunch of times with mixed, generally poor, results. The worst result is when, in their quest for alcohol, the personnel obtain wood alcohol, methanol, which often causes blindness and death.
Methanol poisoning:

To make matters worse, methanol has a large number of military uses, so it is available.
Time for peace.
The Russian army has a history of fighting drunk.
I speak more of having a strong anti drug abuse policy for the whole nation.
A nation of addicts cant defend itself.
I do not speak of prohibition of alcohol. Just drunkenness and addiction.
Ukraine should stock up on vodka in Bakhmut (if/when) they pullout and let he russians “find” it. Then they will all get drunk and die or not be able to fight and then Ukraine can easily pick them off.
