- Ok, on the first point I guess if we torture the phrase asymmetric warfare then we're sort of in agreement. Although that doesn't mean Ukraine isn't also using conventional combined arms: armor, infantry, artillery, and air support. Because they are.
- On the second point I shouldn't have written "right wing militias" since that's incidental and instead written about the subset of gun owners fantasizing about violently overthrowing a "tyrannical government"...or is that not what you intended with your last paragraph?

Ahh no its more just that I don't devalue certain parts of our system of checks and balances because of a political agenda to get off on my smug condescension of those I view as different than me.
Its definitly not a fantasy, I'm a peace and love kind of guy for sure, but civilian gun ownership is part of our system of checks an balences. If a few armed radicals from the left or right decide to be insurgent, they'll get crushed. If its half the population and a signifigant portion of the military, well then, they're probably on the right side of history anyways, and I do view that as part of our system of checks and balecnes. The assertion you can't take on the US military with a few fringe radicals is true, but is actually the best reason that civilians being armed is lower risk than the opposite. In all of history there has never been a civilian population as well armed as the US and I honestly think people who are bothered by that have a bit of an authoriarian bent. Theyd rather trust the government than their fellows. Personally, I think we should open the borders, give green cards to all immigrants, and give them an AR15 too. I mean the bad ones already have guns lets arm the rest, get them started being americans on the right foot. The fact you included 'right wing militias' isn't just a random irrelvant detail. It shows your pathos, and desire to shoehorn those who say anything you don't already agree with into conforming to the 'other side'
Also I think you'd have to torture the phrase asymmetric till its synonymous with insurgency for you to be right.
this wasn't about some between the lines anything. Its about understanding the conflict, and why its impossible for putin to win at this point. Asymetric warfare with poorly equipied insurgency with popular support is already almost impossible in the long run, with a well trained well equiped asymetric force its even more so that way.__________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ ________________

Oh man theres so much thats sad about this post. Vibes. Seriously.
People who are bothered by someone else they view as 'trying to sound' smart betray only their own insecurities. No one else fixates on that. I'm just glad when people are willing to explore things and learn.__________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ ________________

Yea, do a dopamine detox and cut your screen time. Use the ignore function.
Why asking my permision? I don't give a fuck.
I probably should stop replying to shit that isn't worth replying to. For some reason it seems to affect me less to type it than it does you to read or have to skim over it. Hmm, not sure why seems odd? It seems the people who are most negatively affected by my posts seem to also be the people with the least amount of impulse control to avoid replying to me. Seems like a personal problem.__________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ ________________

Slavic as we call him is a race dad on the Chestnut Mountain Race Team. Flew to Poland to bring back family a couple days after the invasion started. It didn't go as planned, but fortunately, mostly safe in Poland.

Same guy has repeatedly said he would stop commenting and then goes right back to it.
I have been in this State for 30 years and I am willing to admit that I am part of the problem.

I'm starting to suspect Boris's ex was Ukrainian or a kovbasa left skid marks in his pocket.
Scientists now have decisive molecular evidence that humans and chimpanzees once had a common momma and that this lineage had previously split from monkeys.
