Russians are employing this dastardly new technology called "mines" which no army on earth has encountered before, least of all those of the NATO members like France, Germany and the UK.

It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Please don't be a whoosh
To clarify, I was poking fun at it being mysterious. Because they ARE so common. Sorry if it came off as too legitimate of a comment.
Hahaha it was definitely a woosh for me, but no worries! I often have a hard time parsing sarcastic tone on text (Neurodivergency or English as a second language? Who can tell? Why not both?) I generally err on the side of just assuming sincerety, that way the worst case is someone tells me woosh - and hey maybe somebody else weren't sarcastic, but thought the same.
All good! I thought about finding a better way to word the whoosh part because it felt like I was being aggressive, but I really meant it as more of an internal dialogue "oh no! I hope they didn't get whooshed"
I decided I couldn't find a better way so I just ran with it.
No worries, it didn't feel aggressive at all ♥️
