      So tell me, how are these reservists going to defend massive refinery complexes against drones? Jump up and down with their arms in the air, like they just don’t care?

      This just tells me that EVERY ruzzian is a blindly patriotic murderous imperialist. Any other way, there’d be far more than serbia happening there, it should’ve been civil war long ago

    3. Analysts have always said general conscription is the red line that Putin cannot cross with the Russian population.

      De-politicising and demotivating the Russian population is a big part of how he oppresses them.

      They did a partial mobilisation in 2022, and it was so negatively received (as well as the usual incompetent Russian implementation) they went back to volunteer contracts only, which they had to pay more money for.

      I wonder how the Russian population will respond to this one. Conscripts are 18 year old kids, the Babushkas weren’t happy when a bunch of them got captured in Kursk. Putin had to scramble like crazy to get them back in prisoner swaps.

      Does the fact that he has to go back here with conscripts and reservists show weakness or strength. I’m not sure. Is it a sign of weakness that he can’t protect Russian territory now, or is it a two-step manoeuver to get these conscripts onto the front line.

      How many reservists do you need to defend a thousand miles of pipeline?

    5. I remember some Putin apologist telling me how Putin was going to be able to counter these refinery strikes, but I don’t think this counter strategy is going to be very effective. Especially if Russia is still having issues with NODs.
