Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Rlduiig d sotsya iotye?
If that's Ukrainian, I don't speak it. Sorry.
I'm not sure if my comment is whoosh, but just in case; it's the transliteration of the letters in the picture if you read them as cyrillic letters, highlighting that they should be understood as faux-cyrillic instead
Ah, gotcha. Yeah, it was definitely faux cyrillic. It's a reference to the Will Riker from TNG playing a sour note on his trombone that I'm known for posting (and now get summoned to post) when someone gets what's coming to them.

That's what the caption says.
So...are they aiming to negotiate land swaps?
To inspire other bordering countries for the land grab.
At the very least take Kalinlingrad. It's kinda stupid that it's just floating there.
Ohhhhh nobody's grabbing that.
Even if the land was worth the effort, having to integrate the massively Russian population is distinctly not
Ask Israel to do it 😉
Negotiate? Pfff. They'll annex russia.
Ya know.....if this whole things with Ukraine getting Crimea back, AND annexing a portion of russia, I would be so happy!
Not just a portion! They are using my strategy from Europa Universalis 2 - blitzkrieg takeover of all the country's provinces and full annexation.
Inb4 Annexation of Pink and Yellow Ukraine
30x30 km area, nice. It will force Russia to react and create issues with conscripts being on the front.
it looks more like 3/4 of a circle with 20km-ish radius. but this comes from openly available sources, that at this point consist mainly of whatever panicked russian civilians sent to the most reliable source in the world, russian telegram channels. syrskyi knows much more and in more detail
The sooner he's put down the better the world will be.
It's twice what any independent reports are saying, but even 500 is more than everything Russia conquered in the last few months.
