North Korea to send 100k soldiers to help Russia in Ukraine

@KiwiBird More like the Russians are running out of their own military reserves

@Dlrannie I certainly hope so.

@KiwiBird 🙄 what? again?

@gol979 People who cheered on the spread of a virus that could've been contained and eliminated just like its predecessors, over their fear of being "controlled", are de facto being controlled by dictatorial regimes that they promptly defend and help, by taking care of reiterating their anti-west propaganda.

And what do these morons do, move to lawless places, coherently to their "we don't need governments to live a good life" stance? Of course not. They'll complain about the government, without ever going out of the reach of the protective arm of said government.

In other words - have you moved to Scampia, NA (IT) as of yet, or are you still keeping your a$s warm in the U.K.?

@Elessar again, if you are scared imprison yourself. Why the need to impose your set of beliefs (all based on fear) on others. Its really weird

@gol979 I'm not. The one scared of and paranoid about western governments, to the point of having to pull them out of your a*se e ieven when it's Russia doing sh*t isn't me here.

Again, if you're so much against western civilization, move somewhere else out of the west's reach? Central Africa for instance, nobody would care to vaccinate you from anything down there if you don't want to

@helenS I wonder how many would surrender in order to get a decent meal?

@chrisCA ... or a transit visa for Europe 😏

@helenS One problem though is those troops have been indoctrinated since birth.

@markansas I mean I think political engagement is good but the US has no real alternative options and is a first past the post system. Voting is kind of the least useful form of civil engagement in the systems in place in most of the Commonwealth.

Then again in the USA you can get 1 million people to protest in the streets, completely ignore them and still call yourself a government of the people, for the people.

Something is very broken.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow it does change and its slow to do so.

@markansas That is nice to believe. But revolutionary change has never in history happened by playing by the rules of the existing order.

If things really changed the words of Dr. King and Malcolm X would read like quaint oddities from history instead like commentary on current events.

@stratosranger Some might even join the Ukrainian forces! 👍

@stratosranger During the first Gulf War, Iraqi troops were surrendering on mass.

@chrisCA Yes they were. Running joke was we could have hired Colonel Sanders to win that war. Those were some hungry sand rats

@Tastyfrzz I think in this case we should welcome them.

@TheSirfurryanimalWales Yes exactly! No peace talks with a warmonger before he's not fully defeated. ✊

@chrisCA what are you asking , meaning “they”? Do you mean the reports or North Koreans, either laborers or troops?

@soar2newhighs I got the impression that the troops would be used as labourers.

@chrisCA if any number of “laborers” go from N. Korea to Ukraine or I should say, break away republics, it would be watched very closely by The U. S. and NATO nations.

@ididntknow why do they need help then explain that one

@smiler2012 maybe help was offered, but definitely not needed, you’ll see, very soon

@ididntknow can you be more explicit

@Thevy29 "World superpower #2" is surprisingly weak.

@graphite The idea of Putin recreating the USSR has largely been a conservative talking point but not really based on anything beyond a speech Hillary Clinton gave one time.

He does seem to like Alexander Dugin who is all about a conservative right wing Russian empire though.

@KiwiBird oh, those reports... i wonder where they started 🤔

@Yulianna Might be a tad demoralising for putin to read it.....so I wonder too. 🤣
I might start a rumour that China needs assistance for the Taiwan assault.

@KiwiBird Exactly, appear to be, just like it appeared to be Russian collusion,

@ididntknow exactly

@SW-User The whole world is, of course, rightfully theirs.

@helenS they never claimed whole world is theirs but they wanted Ukraine to respect Minsk agreement. You can cry nonetheless. Lol

@SW-User "Where Russians live there is Russia"

@chrisCA which experts are these, you really shouldn’t listen to the liberal left wing media, it’s all propaganda you know

@ididntknow "liberal left wing media" 😅 You are too much.

@chrisCA for you yes

@Nimbus 😝no nimby we are talking about north korean soldiers. not united when they play brighton at old trafford tomorrow 😝

@smiler2012 Good to see you are keeping up with he United fixture list ;)

btw,
How did Fulham get on today, I seem to have missed the results.

@Nimbus did not actually nimby 😆googled the fixture😆 not rising to the bait nimby 😆you should be more worried what eric tea bags boys do tomorrow nimby . 😆 i promise as a good christian and a liverpool fan not too take the piss if they loose tomorrow

@Elessar Speaking of planes though I am curious how they plan to get them in country. North Korea has a massive army but virtually no heavy lift capabilities.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow It'll be a logistical nightmare. Russia itself was a sh*tshow with its own logistics, imagine a malnourished country that has never even tried projecting force any farther than its own southern border.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow cattle cars on trains
