Vicky promising for asymmetrical warfare and “nasty surprises

Call me an idiot but I don’t think any amount of money is going to salvage this war for the West. This could’ve been finished a long time ago, but sure, put yourselves in more debt. That’ll end really well.

- I think most people understand that Russia is going to win at this point, hence why the west is becoming increasingly unhinged. These people staked their entire political careers on this war, and when it ends badly there are going to be a lot of questions. So, they're basically trying to drag this out as long as possible hoping for some way to spin it as a win.

- The problem is that money does not directly translate into military power. Reality is not Command & Conquer where you just queue a bunch of riflemen for some buxx and have them soon after.

- Winning the war isn't the primary goal. The primary goal is justifying spending taxpayer dollars on weapons. The exorbitant waste is part of the point.

Nobody talks about warfare in these terms unless you are deranged and subhuman scum

What's asymmetrical warfare?

14
- Guerrilla warfare, partisans, and any warfare that doesn’t directly engage the main enemy force.
  
  Asymmetrical warfare is not terrorism. But terrorism can be asymmetrical.

  You are gonna have to school me here. I don't know what partisans are technically. How are they asymmetric in nature?
