Wagner big boss basically calling out the invasion and wanting revenge of the destruction of his forces but it seems to be directed towards the kremlin
when i understand it correctly a larger army of russian forces retreated in the last week and they did knew about wagner following their path. But then someone in the russian army said they should plant mines and with that they cut off the wagner group whar is their ally. And now the wagner group tries to pull out as much people as possible. Correct me if i am wrong
Yooo this reminds me that I want a Lemmy client that can rewrite Twitter urls to nitter urls
Create a feature request on github.
I have never heard of nitter before. After checking it out, I thought it was strangely familiar. Then it hit me! nitter just takes a Twitter feed and formats it exactly like a MySpace page.
Big if true
I'm skeptical. It feels like political theatre. Anyone else in Russia that said anything like that would suffer from fast onset gravity poisoning, and if they're coordinating logistics with them they have contact with him. And if they have contact with him they can find him.
Have a vote for “gravity poisoning”! 😂🤣😂
Find? Sure.
Find, recover, transport him back through the defenses that the regular Russian army set up, and then toss him out a window? Much larger request.
This guy is in the middle of a warzone, even a murder hobo like Putin can't quickly/easily reach him when he's on the front lines.
Plus they can destroy him if they really wanted to. It's not like they don't own the courts as well.
Reading his statement, I don't think that is it. This is simply another purge, and I'd be deeply surprised if it weren't ordered and directed by Putin himself. He mightn't be some genius world diplomat, but he certainly understands how to play the Russian people.
The fact that Wagner PMC will return to the frontlines after the cleanup as per the statement, really underlines that.
Will be interesting to see how popular Wagner is among the normal soldiers and if enough people join them. Otherwise Wagner is probably toast.
