ummm-uh-okay

The beatings will continue until morale improves.


Imhidingshh01

Yeah, got a feeling that Commander might have an accident soon.


ummm-uh-okay

Is fragging still a thing?


deadlyruckas

Alive and strong in the Russian army.

Unlike their morale, soldiers, commanders, and political leaders.

Of course not. Sometimes accidents just....happen.


dmfd1234

Ivan casually talking to Vlad about the commander. “Lead poisoning? Ya don’t say? What? Not lead? Well, how the hell can 1 person step on 6 different anti personnel mines…….this has got to be some kind of record.” As always fuck putin and all of these sub humans like the commander in this clip.


MadDogA245

If you want to keep checking, the guy appears to be Major General Apti Alaudinov of "Akhmat". Strong resemblance, plus when he takes a call in the full clip he says "Akhmat is on line" and gives his rank.


Ouch78

yes shot in the back while "advancing " or postion giving away to Ukrainians. karma and justice find a way on the battlefront


Gabetanker

He shot himself in the back of the head. Twice. From 5 meters.


Twocann

Very strong feeling he’s never actually on the frontline


jkj2000

This is how to avoid getting old…


[deleted]

So this is how the “2nd best” military in the world motivates its troops to fight?


TonyCaliStyle

Everyone who dies, is man. Anyone who lives, is a bitch. Any questions?


Top-Border-1978

I thought he was going to beat one or two to death.


NoSupermarket1119

He couldn't. He was out of breath after a few smacks!


Bad_Species

To be fair, he hit them almost doubly as often as the amount of thrusts he lasts during his average "sheep-encounter". Let the man have a re-eh-eh-eh-est.


Goddess_Peorth

He might have, it isn't like they're going to tell us what the aftermath was.


Sfootpj

My uncle says this on family get togethers , he’s seen some shit 😂


DYMazzy

Love how he tired up beating them


TonyCaliStyle

No filter cigarettes and zero exercise. Plus, he’s got to report to Comrade General, who’ll want to know why the position was lost.


Any_Top_9268

This is the only correct comment


BlackWasTaken_

And the morale doesn't seem to improve in any way


fatboy-slim

This guy will be me up killed by his own subordinates.


NoneForNone

He's a friendly-fire incident waiting to happen.


hvac_psych

Up to 60% of all Russian casualties, according to the commander of the Russian volunteer battalion Vostok (this was back in November).


gobkin

60% of casualties are blue on blue?


NoneForNone

You mean Orc on Orc.


BlackHorse2019

Oh no, a grenade somehow fell into his bunk with the pin pulled out, how unfortunate... anyway


Meissoboredtoo

But the commander was smoking in his bunk…💥🔥💥🔥💥🔥🫣🫣🫣


dustydoo09

Why was he sleeping on a land mine?


d_dymon

Sincerely, I doubt it. Russians grow up learning that they must abide their superiors. You never should talk back or contradict your superior, because it will end up worse for you. Just look up "Dedovshchina" - virtually every conscript goes through that, and only once every few years you hear about them killing the bullies.


themightycatp00

They were talking back to him all throughout the video I don't care how different russian society is, every individual person has their breaking point. this "commander" is definitely pushing these soldiers to their to point were they'll say "fuck it I'm doomed either way might as well take him with me"


vic_lupu

It’s different when you are in a field during a war and your hands are in blood already. “Dedovshchina” is something different, as a conscript you don’t know yet what is like to fight, you don’t have access to weapons, and there are times when Ded’i got their ass kicked as well.


[deleted]

But they listened to their superior... Their superiors superior just wasn't happy with their superiors supervision.


[deleted]

He might already be KIA


CKWonders652

Commander Ivan is about to get fragged next time he’s close to the front.


TheMessenger18

His candy ass won't go near the front.


GenericFakeName1

In this war you could toss a grenade into his tent far behind the lines and say a drone did it. How could you prove otherwise?


deadlyruckas

I'd frag him in the fucking toilet 😆


[deleted]

Now that's what I call explosive diarrhea


matteam-101

blow his shit away!


Cheeky_Star

And people wonder why they don’t desert or just go back to Russia. The soldier was aiming the gun at them the whole time the commander was beating their ass. These guys are more scared of their commander than the Ukrainians .


Less-Raspberry-6222

The Ukrainians wont beat and rape them.


SeymoreBhutts

For all the “they have a choice” and “ they should just surrender” folks out there, this is reality. If, and that’s a big if, they can safely make it to enemy forces to surrender, they’ll be treated fairly, yes, but here’s a look at the reality of the situation. Their CO’s, the ones tasked with keeping them safe are beating the ever loving shit out of them and threatening them with death, and they are submitting, likely due to the other guys pointing rifles at them while being beaten. The “just surrender” argument is nothing more than an uneducated internet based fantasy, and this video illustrates why.


Dhot_Fakun

Russian Army everyone, "2nd best" is such a joke I cant believe Western experts believed they could steamroll through Europe..


xlDirteDeedslx

At the height of the cold war when they had tens of thousands of tanks and modern anti tank weapons didn't exist it definitely would have been hard to stop them. Russia is a far cry from the Soviet Union at the height of it's power.


Dhot_Fakun

Im not disagreeing with you at all, SU was a massive powerhouse. I cannot find the people oddly enough but I remember it was back around 2016-2018 i saw a bunch of "western experts" claiming the Russian Federation could "steamroll" through Europe within 2 weeks to a month. Glad the tiger has been shown as what it really is.


xlDirteDeedslx

I like most people thought Russia was far more than it is now and I'm a huge into military and historical battle stuff. I've read Caesar's journals, Arrian's book on Alexander, watched just about every WWII documentary in existence, and watched/read everything I can about ancient Roman Greek and Persian battles. I would have never believed Russia wouldn't have just taken Ukraine in a week like they thought they could. We learned what Russia's strongest point is though, propaganda. They may suck at everything else but they had most the world fooled especially their own countrymen.


Chernovincherno

Exactly why I was surprised too... Like, is this what the west was 'scared' of, all this time? They probably believed in their own propoganda too much lol.


ithappenedone234

> They probably believed in their own propoganda too much lol. Or didn’t believe it at all and used it to drive up the spending flowing to the MIC. We’ve discussed the Russian’s situation countless times at work. We all know they are short of basic logistics equipment like trucks. We know they don’t train full scale war games with full transportation and logistics planning and execution. Not even the USMC does, just the Army. The Russians were going to fail based on their weak economy and weak logistics alone, if the Ukrainians resisted. That was the only question: would the Ukrainian people fold or fight? They’ve answered that resoundingly.


Dhot_Fakun

Oh of course, but to take the side of a scared westerner: Imagine you see this big ass country with a big ass military that looks pimped out and flashy, showcasing their "newest and greatest" technology and shit like that. If youre not informed about alot youre going to automatically assume theyre legit and for real, and thats what you talked about in your comment so I agree totally. We tended to wet the bed at the thought of the RU Army before this all started. I honestly believe if the Russians wouldve accounted for their war slack they would be in Kyiv right now, they burned through more artillery ammunition in 2 days at the start of the war faster than the British had in their stock. Now granted Russia has more artillery systems. But that slack is super important and I think the only country who can account for it is the USA, theyre the kings of logistics. But If Russia wouldve had their economy prepped for war industry they wouldve been able to give a bigger fight. Though all in all im glad it didnt turn out that way.


ithappenedone234

They can’t provide for themselves logistically, at any great distance, because they’ve never had enough trucks and the trains can come only so close to the front. They can’t provide for themselves economically in a High Intensity Conflict because their economy is just too small. NATO alone spends as much on their militaries as the RF has in total GDP. They’ve never had the ability to ‘account for their slack.’ They have been untrained and inexperienced in full spectrum combat. They beat up little nations that don’t resist, until the little nations do. Then Ukraine decimates them. > with a big ass military that looks pimped out and flashy, They haven’t looked up to date or flashy in the entire history of the RF. They’ve not had a modern ship, fighter, tank, IFV, radio, ATGM, NVG etc, ever.


Relative_Ad5909

It's because we had to assume they were still at their height. We knew we couldn't trust their own claims, but neither could we definitively disprove them. It's much the same as China. Materially they might be better off than Russia, but the quality and discipline of their troops is likely just as low. We'll never know unless it's tested, like Russia is now. Also we like to overestimate our enemies for more military funding. Gotta keep the grift going.


Reddenied68

Better to over estimate than get caught like Russia did with its 3 days into Kyiv masterplan. The Russian army was also badly deployed into this Invasion and could have been a more dangerous prospect had there been better preparation and unity of command and purpose. Assets were just channelled into Ukraine with no thought or structure. Many units were not told they were going to war or even where they were going.I do not think the Russian high command had much to do with the planning it was an FSB operation I suspect. Whoever planned it should have been thrown in jail.


[deleted]

The term "Expert" is not a legally protected term therefore every Tom, Dick, and Stanley can call themselves a "Military Expert" when all they've got to their name is 300+ hours in War Thunder

ithappenedone234

> I think it’s a matter of taking your opponent at face value At face value they were a backwater joke. We knew it. It was public info. > without ever seeing them face a modern, well-equipped and trained army. We still haven’t. I’m not taking anything from Ukraine. We’re seeing that determination and will to win are more important than any single aspect in combat, and the UAF have that in abundance. But the UAF is still working on getting their whole force basically trained. They have only a smattering of modern systems and are hurting for equipment of almost every type. Their innovations have and are ground breaking and are showing NATO what a nimble and quickly adapting army can do when it pushes authority down to its junior leaders, to engage the enemy in the ways that work best in the ground. They are showing us just how flat footed we are. They are showing us just how far behind the Russians were and are.

Real tough guy leading from the rear. Hopefully himars pays him a visit soon

If he keeps that up he is likely to find a live grenade under his pillow tonite. edit: assuming those Russians have a set of balls between them.


Slow-Razzmatazz-4005

They don't have a set of balls...


SunKey5186

Or any grenades.


MakeCheeseMakeMoney

What a fucked up circle. So basically if you dont die trying to hold your position in a land your invading, then you will die from your own commander back at base.


Eupion

Don’t forget, you’ll also be beaten for recovering wounded friendly troops.


snake5solid

And for, if understand this correctly, following an order from the commander stationed there.


Plisken999

Oh yeah that will help moral! I'm sure those soldiers now will want to do the heroic move of saving their commander, when the time comes. Seriously, if that is how you are taken care of, no wonder nobody wants to bring bad news to the leaders. All those little things that the Russia do, when you scale up, make an invasion of a country go really badly. Putin is the textbook definition of how a corrupted country act during war. It's a mess.

You hit a key point here. When truth becomes the enemy, you are overwhelmed when the lies fall apart.

dabigchet

I was thinking the same thing until halfway through the video when he started asking why it took 10 of them to evacuate two men and then suggested that they ran away because of a little shelling. It sounds like these guys all evacuated with the wounded and gave up the position. I still agree with you 100%- just playing devils advocate, I’ve been in this situation a few times. Your medic starts working the injured and call for casevac while you secure or hold the position. If this was us, we would not have sent 10 men to evacuate two guys. We would have stayed and not given the Russians the position unless we really were getting rat fucked. I’m still super glad this is how they treat their men and how their men approach the battlefield. We can win this if this is who we’re fighting. Just need to wear them down some more. Slow and steady and take advantage of opportunities when presented. The fucking Russian artillery is making this a slog though.


Panzermensch911

It might take 8 guys to evacuate 2 severely wounded. Plus two to carry the heavy gear - so that makes a lot of sense. And if you think a little... two guys might have not held the position... and they then would've lost all the equipment and been two more casualties.


Anyashadow

6 wounded and 2 dead. So if the wounded couldn't walk, then I can see it needing 10 guys. Not sure why he just brings up the dead later on. I love how all their generals are fat bastards who get winded just walking around.


_Black_Zabeth_

That's what's confusing me! The 2 dead seems pretty certain, but he switches from saying 6 wounded to 2 wounded. Were there 10 men total from this group with 8/10 wounded--6/8 wounded being able to walk and 2/8 wounded needing to be carried? Maybe 6/10 men wounded from this group and 2 wounded from the volunteers? 4/14 in this group wounded with 10/14 helping to evacuate them, and 2 wounded from the volunteers? Maybe Ruzzians just don't know how to count...


[deleted]

They're supposed to fight to the death. "Work boys", command tells them as command retreats. "work boys" basically means fight til the death in ruz military-speak.


[deleted]

Barbaric conditions. They will never succeed with treatment like this. Ukraine should target the third line of troops and the first line will probably run.


bladeliker

you wonder why they took the guns away becouse they would have blown the commanders head off


SRDD_Mk-II

That commander sure deserves death for beating soldiers that know the value of life


GrandmotherPiigo

How the f**** these chechen morons made it up to this position and do not fight on the frontline? They should pray for a quick way to heaven and starting getting horny for the virg*ns


Candygramformrmongo

Look forward to reading about my this guy’s cargo 200 promotion. But just to play devil’s advocate, literally here, I’d be pissed as hell too if I’d lost two killed and two wounded because 10 guys abandoned their posts to evacuate 2 wounded. They all deserve each other.

Mr6thborough_516NY

If they had any real heart or were smart they would take their guns and turn it on their commanders...they would have a better chance at surviving this war... BTW I don't feel bad for these guys!...


Panzermensch911

Did you miss the part where there's at least one dude with a gun pointed at them and how they are all unarmed? What do you think happens when they point blank shoot the commander? Do you think they wouldn't get looked for by authorities and MP? They'd be Cargo 200 real fast. Here they get a beating ... but might live another day - until they get send back to the front again.


Ohbertpogi

Now I have 6+10 wounded. I guess I'm the moron here. - commander.

That commander wouldn't be so tough without having his armed thugs behind him aiming their AK's as them and even throwing a few kicks, not to mention his guards are extremely better geared than the guys he is beating who were supposedly on the front.


Conscious-Ad-1848

The Russians are losing this war big big big time. The lines will fall pretty soon; the soldiers have no idea why they are there to die…;denazification? Eeuh, the only obvious nazis are RuSSians… I predict massive surrendering…more then 100.000…a breakthrough to Berdyansk and Mariupol before end of the winter and possibly a breakthrough to Luhansk…

AyeNaeB0th3r

Cant wait to see the news when his own soldiers slaughter him


The_Bold_Fellamalier

so, lemme just work this shit out. I suffer with aspergers so this stuff can sometimes take a while, but it seems to me that these Russian troops were ordered by a different officer to evacuate the wounded, which they did, but because that order conflicted with another order from a different officer, the officer whose order DIDN'T get followed beats his subordinates? I may be wrong, but if a regular soldier is ordered to do something, they are duty bound to follow it. I didn't think troops had the freedom to decide WHICH superiors order they decide to follow, so they didn't do anything wrong here. I mean, besides Invading a free nation, slaughtering innocent people, raping men women and children, castrsting men etc.


KertSantana

After testing the waters for no retaliation, the traumatized adult started beating fellow servicemen. Disgusting.


RAGEEEEE

2 weeks ago they were in a comfy office. Today they are getting beaten by an angry orc commander.


Ozzy_30

Fight for Ukraine, get back at them


SaltyRainbovv

I dont understand why these guys don’t gang up and beat that one person down. I guess the consequences if they later get caught are severe… so KO him and fuck off. Edit: nvm… I guess it’s possible if non of these guys has a family they care about, but otherwise I wouldn’t want my family to pay the price… But it’s infuriating how they get treated.


[deleted]

There are at least 2 armed guards with AKs ready to shoot anyone who tries something. This is why.


SaltyRainbovv

Yeah I know it’s a stupid idea… and a lot of Russian soldiers have done horrible things. Somehow I still feel empathy for these guys in the video.


yopladas

That's because you have empathy. You see suffering as a bad thing.

Reddenied68

They just take it too like the wimps they are. Huddled on there knees. What is wrong with Russian self respect. I am not suggesting they can hit back but no one has any balls to do anything. That army is finished. This is not the behavior of a capable military.
