The comments

So this is essentially the scene from the movie ‘Enemy at the Gates’ that the Russians were so upset about. Kinda hard to deny when the tactics are still being used some 80 years later.

and the reply

You be amazed how many Russian and others denied the existence of block units and claimed that movie is bs

The whole Russia no guns bullshit from Enemy at the Gates is pure projection. Nazi supply line infrastructure was infamously crap and it only got worse when they began to fixate on “Wunderwaffen” like the panzer which required being stripped down for even routine maintenance.

It’s also historical confusion as under the tsar peasant levies weren’t always equiped with enough guns. Fortunately for Russia by ww2 some sensible people had started running the country

Jesus Christ. Why do you think they chose the word zombies! Why are you comparing old propaganda to new propaganda and surprised that they’re using the same script!? Fuck this war, death to Amerika

Remember, these people aren’t being tricked by this reporting, it’s critical to their geopolitical/psychological place in the global hierarchy that the Ukrainians (banderites/azov includes) are noble heroes and the Russians are zombie orcs.

I saw a NAFO ukronazi say that “all of the civilized world is backing Russia against Ukraine”. Obviously the majority of the third world has stayed out of this, or called for peace, but westerners understand this conflict as a Clash of Civilizations, where the outcome indicates whether or not the future belongs to them. Therefore, they slurp up obvious propaganda and ignore alternative facts.

“Westerners aren’t helpless innocents whose minds are injected with atrocity propaganda, science fiction-style, they’re generally smug bourgeois proletarians who intelligently seek out as much racist propaganda as they can get their hands on because it fundamentally makes them feel better about who they are and how they live. The psychic and material costs are rationally worth the benefits.“

Zombies has always been an elitist, fascist concept that is simply the manifested fear of the rich about the poor rabble taking their property
