Russian invasion of Ukraine | Fewer tweets, more discussion
- Thread starter Wednesday at Stoke
- Start date
What would Kenny G do?
He would ambush you with an abundance of consecutive tweets to tune of Songbird
He’s surely doing this for domestic consumption to create a facade of relevance - a narrative that France is leading the way towards a potential diplomatic outcome (which of course will never happen because of anything Macron does).
Pretty sure it's both. Some doubles have masks, some plastic surgery.
There are so many hilarious inconsistencies in the three pics of Putin. If the one on the left is the real Vlad, the other two must be from middle earth.
Not sure what the value of Ukrainians tweeting this is. Possibly to wind Putin up
You don't even need comparisons between his doubles to know he is using them. Recently he gave a speech in front of some ambassadors (maybe you saw that awkward silence moment when he waited for applause). He said unfortunately he can't speak personally to them because of medical restrictions, meaning Covid.
But he is also the one walking in Sevastopol and Mariupol and hugging "random" people? Believing that he isn't using body doubles requires more naivety than believing in Santa at this point.
How many Putins are out there?
What’s the salary for a dictator double and do you get more wedge the more plastic you get.
What do you do outside of work, imagine you could have fun with it outside of the job.

Certainly more than 1. Simply no way the same person wouldn't allow anyone closer than 20 meters while in Russia and then suddenly hug everyone and go to "random" people flats in the middle of the night in a warzone.
The Putin meeting those residents looks real enough to me.
Everytime this topic comes up, you just have to listen to the terrorist Girkin. He explains it perfectly how to spot the real Putin.
Is he alone? It's the real one. Is he standing near people, or in a crowd? It's a double.

Someone out there and within the Ukrainian government is behaving in a very moronic way.
How did you get the leak as coming from the Ukrainian side? Did I miss something in the article?
Maybe I am overthinking but can it be a deliberate attempt to deceive? We see all kind of conflicting information starting to fly around, just like before previous counter offensives.
Very likely
Maybe we should wait a little with the blaming until we know who leaked them.
According to this thread the earliest known apperance of the documents online was in a 4chan thread 3 days ago.
Wagner in central Bakhmut. Ukranian forces most likely moved to the western part of town and build a new defense line. Still, even if Bakhmut finally falls in a couple of weeks, Russia depleted their men and equipment just for a propaganda town, while Ukraine prepares 8 new brigades with 40.000 men and western armor for their offensive.
How do we know they have these new brigades etc?
Unfortunately I think it was costly for Ukraine too, just hopefully it was worth it.
Yeah, its a pointless exercise for the Russians and show how utterly desperate Putin is for a glimmer of success in Ukraine. He would've been much better off retaining Kherson, which is a fairly large city by Ukrainian standards. Let's hope the Ukrainian counteroffensive takes back most of their territory.
Some creative techniques from Vlad. The shamanic toad one in particular.
It's so depressing that a huge country full of life and people and culture can be spoken of in this manner.
The term "orcs" doesn't do justice to what these Russians are.
Although if you want a paranoid dictator to turn his focus on unnecessary purges of his intelligence services, this would be the article to publish.
To be fair (in regards to the snippet above from @VorZakone), it has felt like we had a better idea of what Russia is going to do than our friend Ukraine...especially early on.
