The amount of hardware lost by Russia in just under a year is absolutely insane
You left out this part:Most people here parroting the mainstream view to keep pushing the war instead of negotiating.
Figures are put out everywhere but according to Turkish paper Hurseda Haber, reporting recent MOSSAD analysis, #RussiaUkraine casualties Jan 14th 2023:
İddia: MOSSAD’a göre Ukrayna ve Rusya kayıpları
Rusya-Ukrayna savaşının birinci yılına yaklaşıldığı bu günlerde İsrail istihbaratı tarafından açıklandığı iddia edilen savaş kayıpları, savaşın korkunç boyutlarını gözler önüne seriyor.hurseda.net
Ukraine 734K mobilized 157K killed, 234K injured
Russia 418K mobilized 18.5K killed, 44.5K injured
Sure you all may say those figures are false. But whose figures should we believe?
Our own figures obviously biased to our narrative?
What if they are close? Just realise that this proxy war the West keep pushing have a stark reminder of the potential losses you may be pushing Ukraine into.
234 Killed – NATO military instructors (US and UK)
2,458 Killed – NATO soldiers (Germany, Poland, Lithuania, ...)
Presumably because even you realised that info took it from the realms of "outlandish report allegedly leaked from a secret Israeli intelligence document", and straight into the realms of "obvious fake news is obvious".
Oh I'm pretty sure he understands his own mind...
A lot of Soviet weapons were built with "alt" modes, this is because of their doctrine that a weapon you couldn't use was a useless weapon. As a result their SAMs have surface to surface modes for situations like this where the enemy air forces are mostly contained. Their anti ship missiles can also be used against ground targets, for situations like this where the enemy navy is practically non existent.

To me that looks like 2 maybe 3 taken out, going by what looks to be scorching on the ground with a larger force of 6-8 bypassing stricken vehicles. Definitely dosnt look like a "smoked" column. Without further context/images it just to me looks like a bit of an exaggeration.

Can't post it but there's video of the same column I believe showing 2 of the tanks destroyed, one of the crew running away while on fire and another tank seemingly in retreat driving over a mine

Is that you Elon? I see you were pushing this nonsense on Twitter as well.
Russia did just sign a deal with Iran for them to build their weapons in Russia (where no pesky IAF planes/drones can blow up their factories). If you're Israel and you see Russia trying to conquer a country with half a million Jews and now they're teaming up with a country that have vowed to wipe you form the map then neutrality must be loking like a pretty poor position right now. If Russia were to extend their protection of Iran's drone production to their nuclear program... this is an alliance that needs to be nipped in the bud and the shortest path to that is Russia losing in Ukraine asap.
In fairness, Moscow is a city in Europe, so he's not being disingenuous

That tankman running away totally engulfed in flames is mad.
At least three tanks have gone to the big scrap heap in the sky

I knew this already, I'm not surprised and Bojo was also stirring the pot with it.
Ukrainian blood to get one over Russia.
This is not about Ukraine's sovereignty for the West it is a selfish act to drain Russia. This is all it is about.

Disengage in his case hue hue.
Not the first burning Russian tanker video I've seen doing a LotR Denethor impression 
.
Russian tanks seem to be designed to kill their crew.
The ammo is under the turret and the internal fuel tank is by the driver.
The tanks are multi-fuel so if the Russians stop at a Ukrainian service station and there's no diesel they just stick in Kerosine or Petrol then sad days when St.Javalin comes calling for some Ork BBQ.

Apart from the fact that Russia doesn't want peace, it wants Ukraine!

Nothing except Russia agreeing to leave Ukraine.
I've asked this question to one of your previous incarnations, I'd love to know your background to hold such thoughts. Where are you from? What's your level of education?

Call me cynical from Iraq, Libya and Syria and thus questioning motives behind future foreign policy adventures.
Russia posts another $25billion deficit for January
In recent weeks the Kremlin has tried to compensate by selling off currency reserves and also announced it will try to raise $20billion from domestic bonds
The main cause of Russia's budget woes is the price of its oil, gas and the lack of ability to move it around. Russian oil revenue were cut I half last year and they make up half of Russia's budget revenue, and so going forward of this continues and Russia runs out of assets to sell the Kremlin has to come to terms with a 30 to 40% reduction in tax revenue and it has to cut spending to cover that
And along with this massive reduction in tax revenue, at the same time the Kremlin is looking to rapidly increase defence spending. Russia has never tried to increase spending so much when its revenues were dropping so fast

Russia’s budget deficit soars as energy revenues slump by almost half
Fall in oil and gas sales coupled with sharp rise in defence spending highlight economic damage of Ukraine conflict
