Just realized that the first time the Swarm was on a CoD game was on BO2, which takes place in 2025, lmfao

    Lol what unreported casualties do you imagine there could even be? The drone operators developing carpal tunnel? If they had identified Ukrainians smuggling weapons platforms into the country, the whole operation would have failed.

    And then nobody wants to talk about retaliation as a consequence.

    Right, because Russia hasn’t been trying until now? They haven’t really tried to crush Ukraine, they’ve just been playing around? But now that Ukraine has bloodied their nose, boy are they sure gonna find out what Russia’s capable of. Lol.

    “Things will be worse once the bombs stop falling” is pure war propaganda.

    No, “things will be worse when a nation is conquered by a hostile dictatorship” is not propaganda. Ukraine knows that for a fact, because they’ve been through this before.

    Seriously, what do you even want here? What is the point of this? You want capitulation and appeasement?

      Lol

      What is it with the 101st Chairborn and their need to make light of human casualties?

      what unreported casualties do you imagine there could even be?

      Intelligence on the ground, particularly spotters near the target, would be the most obvious potential liabilities.

      But now that Ukraine has bloodied their nose

      They’ve been bloodying one another for years on end. This isn’t the first successfully Ukrainian strike since the war started.

      Seriously, what do you even want here?

      To quite treating this bloodbath as a fucking football game.

        I’m not making light of casualties, I’m making light of the baseless claim that there even could be casualties, because I reiterate:

        If they had identified Ukrainians smuggling weapons platforms into the country, the whole operation would have failed.

        You think if they found spotters deep in Russian territory near their nuclear bombers the operation would have succeeded?

        So, you’re not gonna defend the claim that we should worry about retaliation? Going to pretend that Russia will do anything it wasn’t already trying to do, and just move the conversation elsewhere? This is so incredibly bad faith.

        To quite treating this bloodbath as a fucking football game.

        Congratulations, it’s not working. You just sound like a cheerleader yourself.

          Don’t bother engaging him. He accidentally let his mask slip in another thread. He’s a Putin apologist trying to “both sides“ the conflict.

          I’m not making light of casualties

          The cavalier attitude towards death is symptomatic of a deep online mental illness.
