Yeah,

Russia is moving rapidly to the situation the USSR was in the late 1970's.

Almost 60% of GDP back then was spent on the military.

Basically going bankrupt.

Their citizens paid the price of bare shelves in grocery stores..

Or any store for that matter.

To the victor go the spoils. The US tried to plunder the former USSR then got evicted by Putin.

I love this Bullshishka about RuZZia trying to steal Ukraine's natural resources.

Right now, RuZZia has turned ALL of the territory they occupied into a fuckin' minefield.

They also forced Ukraine to do likewise along the front line.

Oh yeah, and don't forget about those hOrRiFiC cLuStEr mUnItIoNs (tm RFQ and the Z-trolls) that are literally littering the ground with unexploded bomblets.

Once the war is over, it's going to take decades to clear out all of these mines, just like Vietnam. Even RuZZians don't know where they placed their own mines, as one of their generals discovered the hard way:

Senior Russian general ‘killed by one of Putin’s own landmines’ in Ukraine (The UK Independent)

So for all those PooTin cucks who fantasize about RuZZia developing their newly acquired territory for its rich natural resources, I say, "Don't hold your breath, vatniks."

Have you posted this already Wharfie? Turns out the North Korean shells RuZZia received may not be all what they're cracked up to be:

North Korean 152mm Shells Used by RuZZia May Be Defective (Ryan McBeth, YouTube short)

But hey, when it comes to artillery shells, I thought RuZZia was outproducing the West!

Why would they need North Korean shells that are way past their expiration dates, if they already have such an innate advantage against Ukraine and NATO?

(Apologies in advance if this causes "shrinkage" among the PooTin cucks ...)
