What causes Russia to perform so badly in wars?
>>538151058Russians think hard times create strong men. Thus they are happy to let things get shittier and shitter without trying to fix things, believing that it will make them stronger.
>>538151058didn't they conquer you immediately after you were conquered by Germany?
>>538151206Russia lost to us when they didn’t have UK and USA backing, then they lost to Japan, Poland, Finland, Afghanistan and then Chechnya.Without western superpower propping Russia up they can’t win single war
Sign up to fight for a Ukrainian foreign legion if you hate Russians so much
>>538151462Strangely I haven’t seen single pro-Russian on /pol/ joining Russian army and they accept any foreigner
Basically they can get away with it with minimal consequences. If other, smaller countries fought wars like that, they'd be risking actual dissolution, but Russia is blessed with unconquerable geography and a naturally servile population. Their rulers have a lot more leeway to be retarded than those of other European countries.
>>538151491> Sign up to fight for a Ukrainian foreign legion if you hate Russians so muchBecause many pro-Russians are St. Petersburg bots who get their salaries from my taxes.
>>538151321>russia with lend lease: pushes to the elbe>russia without lend lease: lose 25% of their economy to ethiopia, completely implode after losing to afghanistan
>>538151058Dying is better than living is Russia
>>538151321Wasn't Russia the first country to defeat Napoleon after he roflstomped the entire continent? I just wonder how you can argue that the only country with over 10% of the land mass on the planet is bad at war.And Russia won territory from Finland.
>>538151718Russia haven’t won single battle against Napoleon and was propped up by British so they could burn half of the country down to deny Napoleon supplies and not suffer consequences.And that’s how far you had to go to find “strategic Tang victory” of Russia
>>538151491Pro Russia is pro west. I don't have to do anything to support Russia, they are winning on their own. I hate that my taxes are funneled to some jew in ukraine to kill ukrainians which is what I wish would stop. Saying stuff like that is is like "being pro gravity" as if that means anything.
>>538151565retarded, which western country do you think is less srvile? brits? Americans? Germans?
>>538151976> they are winning on their ownKek, one more year of such victories and I don’t think Russia will exist
>>538151058>muh made up numbers Sounds like Amerimutt bugmen are still losing in Ukraine
>>538151718Napoleon's own hubris defeated him. Imagine being goaded into following Russians all across Europe while the Russians burn everything they see as they retreat, causing you to haemorrhage men, only to finally get to Moscow with a quarter of your starting force. And by then its winter, and attacking Russia in winter is pretty dumb, so you then retreat yourself.
>>538151058Unrealistic expectations. Putin taking crimea while ukraine was in chaos was a good move, limited scope, defensible area, good timing, quick execution. Trying to take the entire country after letting it build up for 8 years is just pushing your luck.It doesn't help that their armed forces are actively bullshitting each other about readiness levels, advances, manpower and casualties etc.
>>538152189>>538151860>Britain carried Russia>Napoleon defeated himself>It was the cold weather>They burned their own villagesHOLY COPE. Hey you know who didn't get pwned by the snow? RUSSIA.Here's the better bait question since OP's question is whiny and gay: why is it always Finland, Poland, and Czechia who expect anyone else to be as butthurt about Russia as they are? Anyone else's opinion of Russia is generally one of indifference, mixed feelings, or slight favorability, but specifically these three countries are always inviting you to their commiseration convention because they were at war with Russia for a few months like eighty years ago. Like holy shit, no one cares. I'm being invaded by millions of jeets and gooks and you're complaining about fellow blonde and blue R1A-ers who administered your region for a little while. You'd rather be toy soldiers for NATO who would feel nothing about sending you to get blown up in the drone zone than to simply trade with Russia who has infinite gas, metal, and basically every other natural resource that can be produced north of the tropics. Russia is giving you the better deal by far if you'd just get over whatever stupid thing happened in the past. But Europeans can never get over it.
>>538151462Sign up for a storm Z unit, if you love Russia so much. Traitor.
>>538151977French, Spanish, Italians, certainly. Probably Brits and Americans. Not Germans, their big bottleneck is indefensible geography.
>>538152788being butthurt about Russia is like an illness here. More than half of the country is sick and is unable to be coherent. Something like a mass delusion.
