Drones are cheap. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Tikiporch@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 child) Ukraine has trained military personnel and instruction from the finest minds in the West. And actual armor of their own. This is no comparison, you need to temper your expectations. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] KMAMURI@lemmy.world 1 point 1 year ago (1 child) They didn't at the beginning. They had a half assed army barely supplied, a navy with no ships and an Airforce that was basically grounded. Using equipment from the 1970' and 80's. Look it up. Their military was at best backwater until the Russians invaded Crimea. Quit making excuses. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Tikiporch@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (2 children) I'm aware. What little Ukraine had to start with is more than any collective group of counter protesters in the USA have access to right now. They also had sovereignty that world powers could throw weight behind. What world power is going to sponsor US citizens to fight their own government?

It's pretty simple. Ukraine didn't have a backer either. People had their kids and Baba's filling glass bottles with styrofoam. You'll never gain my support again, ever. Allowing threats of annexation of Canada and silence from all of 'murica on that subject. Instigation of economic warfare on us was just another strike. Now it's the complicity of the American people to complete fascism and arguments against doing anything to stand up for yourselves and your neighbors. I'll meet you at the border though when they press you into service for the water wars. No matter how prepared I am. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Triasha@lemmy.world 1 point 1 year ago Counterpoint, there are more firearms in possession of the American civilian populace than there were in the Ukrainian military during the February invasion. If the American politiy doesn't want to be governed, it's going to take a whole lot of concentration camps to make it governable. permalink fedilink source parent
