Jumped the paddock afforded to me, now I’m happily grafted onto a rock in the Pacific. My roots are still in #SoFlo.

Putin used the first two years to conduct a pogrom of Eurasian descended people from the poorest shit hole oblasts to the east. So it’s taken some time for the youth of St Petersburg or Muscovy to return with catheters, crutches and TBIs.
Bare fiber (core + cladding) is quite easy to break in compression. It’s brittle and prone to fracture under shear + pressure, just like any other piece of glass.
There’s no intention to pick these strands up after use, it’s a single use device. Once it leaves the spool it never goes back in. In the cold math of warfare a 1-way $3-5k device is worth much more than a lada filled with food and water if that delivery never makes it to the front. Moreso for an IFV, fixed artillery, AA, or drone operator.
These systems can operate as reconnaissance with reusable drones, however, the fiber spool is by design single use.
And yeah, that shit hurts when it’s imbedded under your skin. And it’s going to persist in the environment for years afterward. War is like that.
@mgnome @ukraine @Fingolfinz gives you insight into what ruZZian military command is thinking about as they target apartment buildings. Fucking animals.
@Madison420 the conspirator undermining Ukraine’s air force obviously

When you consider the rural oblast most of those people came from your absolutely right! Putin attempted a 2 for 1 on ethnic cleansing, but was only half successful.

Nobody asked you what you like. Why? Because it’s immaterial to the question of will Ukraine capitulate. It will not. Not for Trump, not for putin. Not for weapons or promises or treaties. You can’t promise Putin his own people will not execute him, so the coward has no choice but to throw away a life for every acre of territory that cannot be kept.
Ruzzia is already a Chinese vassal state, so in a real sense it’s already lost the war no matter what happens next.
