17:49 XRevan86; > Reports later revealed that the figures in the losses section of the brief were photoshopped in the version shared by pro-Russian Telegram channels: Russian military losses were reduced almost threefold, fighter aircraft losses were reduced tenfold, and ground-based equipment losses were also reduced tenfold. Ukraine's military losses were grossly overstated by a factor of 4.5.

17:49 XRevan86; > The source of the original document is also unclear, as it was published on the anonymous forum 4chan. It is impossible to confirm the reliability of the figures on the supply of equipment, although they do not seem to contradict data from open sources.

8 PM, April 7

20:03 t0talist; watched some old movie, "All quiet at the Western Front", 1930s

20:04 t0talist; which was re-produced twice, one remake from 1979, and another recent production 1922

20:05 t0talist; the movies from 1930 and 1979 were censored heavily, wherever broadcasted

20:06 t0talist; in France the scenery was removed, german soldiers engaging with french women

20:06 t0talist; in Germany 1930s several other scenes were removed, and Monarchists boycotting and interfering with cinemas which presented the movie

20:08 t0talist; that's how i portray NSDAP following later: Monarchists

20:09 t0talist; all other political terms - such as fascist, racist, nationalist - are distracting, because the common criteria isn't any of them

20:10 t0talist; it is bootlicking monarchists, their loyar faith towards institutions, including religious ones

20:12 MinceR; it's all authoritarianism

20:12 MinceR; they like to try to distract us with different flavors and symbols

20:12 MinceR; but they're all about the same thing

20:13 t0talist; well, i am having difficulties with this "anti-authoritarian" context too, because authority based on competence is different to monarchist

20:14 MinceR; "authority based on competence" doesn't last in human society anyway

20:14 XRevan86; t0talist: "authority based on competence" <- It's an illusion.

20:14 t0talist; anyhow, i watched several older movies in recent days, including "planet of the apes" (the original production, NOT the remakes)

20:15 t0talist; XRevan86: i disagree;

20:15 t0talist; you're just mistaking monarchist type ruling for a hierarchy of competence

20:15 t0talist; and besides, "liberal democracies" leaders aren't necessarily the most competent either

20:16 XRevan86; t0talist: Without checks and balances a hierarchy of competence is not feasible.

20:16 t0talist; keeping in mind, the current "nobility" ruling in "german" government

20:16 XRevan86; And that's where authoritarian regime fall short.

20:16 MinceR; good arguments for not having leaders at all

20:17 t0talist; XRevan86: incompetence, mismangement, corruption, that's how society falls apart

20:17 MinceR; that's what humans do best

20:18 XRevan86; t0talist: A civil society can only thrive under democracy, and it's an element of collective protection against corrupt or incompetent officials.

20:19 XRevan86; Doesn't mean that every democracy is thriving, but some kind of feedback loop is a necessity.

20:19 t0talist; an infantile mob ruling, enjoy

20:19 MinceR; still better than being ruled by some monster like putler

20:20 XRevan86; MinceR: What's more relevant is that he's not even all that competent either.

20:23 MinceR; his worshipers have delusions about that though

20:23 t0talist; since this is the current media spectacle, both are weak: Putin and Zelenskij alike

20:24 XRevan86; He's shut every voice of reason up, so now all everyone hears is madness. Doesn't really cultivate a sober civil society.

20:26 XRevan86; t0talist: Zelensky's proven many times that he can stake his life for Ukraine.

20:26 XRevan86; His personal qualities are not as important though, as he's just a president.

20:27 XRevan86; While Putin is a dictator. In Russia what's happening in Putin's head is crucial.

20:32 t0talist; Zelenskij is a comedian who had won a televoting contest, the "liberal democracy" of his, appreciated by EU and international community

20:34 t0talist; yesterday, i removed the TV receiver and antenna, which was connected to with a tiny hdmi grabber to my framebuffer console

20:34 t0talist; it is dead-silent since then, except for the noise outside, from speeding cars, which the "poor" immmigrants enjoy

20:36 XRevan86; t0talist: So a career in entertainment automatically means he's weak?

20:37 XRevan86; Putin was an office worm and a thief before he was appointed.

20:38 MinceR; but look how strongly he can hold on to the side of a table!

20:40 XRevan86; And he can throw a pen really far.

20:47 XRevan86; He's so strong he's decided not to give the ambassadors the letters of credence personally.

20:47 XRevan86; As COVID-19 made him a germaphobe.
