I fully agree, and thank the forum owners and moderators for embracing democracy, and freedom of speech, even when opinions are seen as contrary to the "norm". Unlike some other very popular UK forums with castrated general chat sections, for example:

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

**Forums is not a platform for people to justify, endorse or support Putin, his regime or his armed forces. This would be morally inexcusable and anyone doing so should be ashamed of themselves and will be dealt with by the moderators. Putin is acting irrationally and there is no rational or moral justification for his actions.
**Forums is not a platform for people to spread Putin's misinformation about the war.
Depending on the severity of inappropriate messages, I recommend banning people from threads, this specific forum and ultimately entirely from **Forums.

I hope nobody gets banned. I hope everyone makes good use of this forum, and, of course, for a positive outcome"

So much for freedom of speech and democracy...

What does a privately owned forum have to do with democracy? And there is no right to say what you want on a forum, if you want to start such a forum then go for it but you might have the host on your case at some point as most draw the line somewhere.

There is no justifying what Putin is doing or what their armed forces are doing. Murdering and raping their way across Ukraine is immoral.

Forums are not a democracy, you have to obey the rules instated by the mods. I'm sure there are plenty of pro Russian forums you could go post on
Quite agree.

Much like Twitter is a private company and Musk can do what he wants and tell the story he wants to tell (within the realms of the law), so are all forums and other social media.
 
I had the unfortunate experience of having to talk to my brother run law this morning.

Americans are responsible for Ukraine attacking Russia. Yes you read that right.

Russia went into take out chemical labs, kept repeating but the labs.

Zelenski is a former actor and is in a role right now

Can’t even remember half the rubbish, and he believes it to.

Oh and to top off that woman who’s gone missing by the river, the video footage of her at school (or something) isn’t actually her, someone TikTok did a video and confirmed she is an actor!

It is worrying just how many people are getting sucked into this crap. Its going to become a problem in the UK at some point in the not to distant future, just as its a problem in the US already. I know several people now that have fully red pilled on this nonsense and none of them are unintelligent, 2 of them are very intelligent.
 
I never said what that forum owner was saying or embracing was illegal, just that it was secular and undemocratic. The nonetheless constrained arena here is like a breath of fresh air compared to such contrived discussions.

That's a lot of men, 3 to 5 thousand, how long was this over?
Reports are coming out that Kymeta will replace Starlink for satellite communications over Ukraine, which is good news if true.

**** Musk
Sounds good, now Musk will be in trouble, Ukraine will get their hackers to work on sabotaging those star link satellites.

Whilst I dont agree with censorship. Fundamentally I think our unequivocal freedom of expression and speech should be respected.

At the same time, challenging ******** is not against those principles, opinions and discussion are the cornerstone of those principles.
What you have to remember just because you (Not you specifically) hold an opinion dosnt make it right and everyone else is entitled to challenge that opinion, pick holes in it, agree with it or mock it even if that is their prerogative.

Just be thankful that you live in a society like ours where you have places like this and very many others where you can voice and share your opinions, some places will share the same opinion, some wont. Just because one community dosnt share the same viewpoints as you dosnt mean they are against freedom of speech or democracy.

Ukraine really need to stop being on solely the defensive. Eventually Bahmukt will fall if they simply defend. Obviously I'm not army trained in any way, it's just obvious to me, when the attackers are just considering their men as another disposable item.
They say the attackers need 5 men to every 1 defender, defending is all they need to do, you become a big target charging at defences. Why give up killing 500 men a day just sitting in your bunker.

They aren't taking this town back they are defending it. They will be having the same problem when it come to liberating towns and cities.

The time will come, but there is a lot of Russians out there waiting on them so so let the Russians be the cannon fodder.

Truth is it's a monkey wearing the Generals uniform when it comes to tactics in Bahkmut

Did he have his MAGA cap on?

Because if they don't, they don't get back their territory and Ukrainian's continue to die. So if the RUF is losing 800+ a day, then the UKR is losing 160+ a day, and not gaining anything.

Yes, it's good to be in that position, but the cities are still getting shelled.

UK also doesn't have freedom of speech (and the internet is also not a FoS area as such, since it is owned by someone). I'll probably be a little more open though, and assume he meant the idea, rather than the legal term :)

Who says 5:1?
Losses between near peer armies attacking and defending are often with however had the most firepower. So artillery and AirPower.
Generally the attacker… or you can’t attack.
Attackers often have LESS casualties than defenders as the defenders have been pummelled. The attackers only occupy the ground that the artillery has ‘won’.
