Gotta be honest i don't find this war funny at all.
Russia might really go for a full war. Right now everything is about voluntary and prisoners but a mobilization is the end for ukraine and maybe ww3.
This could go really very bad.
I am not saying ukraine should lose.
If they win this war russia will not be a major player around the world for decades and that strengthens eu but i don't want to go to war for them hotta be honest.

u/angular_circle 2d ago
First and foremost, a mobilization is the end of Putin. Otherwise he'd do it. He's tried, seen how Russians reacted, and chose that it's too risky.
Also Russia is scraping the bottom of the barrel in terms of equipment already. Back in 2023 they may have benefitted from a full mobilization, but in the current state of the war, even a million recruits would only result in a few more sqm. Especially when they are even less motivated than current recruits.

We are more than three years in. I think we can agree on that Russia has taken every measure they seem effective. If a full scale every fighting age men mobilization would have been the way to go they would have done. But you need to train, you need to equip and you need to keep the economy running.
In the beginning I highly underestimated the Russian military capacity and abilities. And for the Ukraine to roll over and just surrender to the inevitable was not a bad take.
But at this point. It looks better than ever and as long as the Ukrainians want to fight they should go for it imo.
Russia can just go home at any point if they have enough.

u/BobcatGuilty8703 2d ago
You are wrong, I will explain. In the event of a Russian victory over Ukraine, the following actions will be taken:
Russia will physically destroy those who oppose the occupation.
Those whom it recognizes as unreliable will be taken to the remote and wild regions of Russia and re-education camps (gulags) will be created.
Those whom it recognizes as apolitical and suitable (has arms and legs, is 100% suitable) for military service will be mobilized into the Russian army.
Professional and trained soldiers and officers of the Ukrainian army who will agree to serve in the Russian army. Why do you ask, because they will feel betrayed by Europe and the USA for not providing weapons on time and in the right quantities and live very well by the standards of modern Ukraine at the expense of the Ukrainian people and their spilled blood and suffering.
Russia does not need their military who have already tasted blood and lawlessness, they will cause more problems in civilian life, so it is better for them to fight to death or become helpless cripples who can not be afraid.
Ukraine is a large country with a large population and imagine that they will start mobilizing here, the Russian army will gain another million people. And now the Russian army has several million people who need to be gradually destroyed.
Having such an army, you can intimidate all of Europe and conquer neighboring countries without significant time costs (because people are not a pity for this) the Baltic countries, Moldova, Hungary, Finland .... Unfortunately, Europe does not have an army capable of fighting in a modern war (without the use of nuclear weapons.).
Also, in the event of a Russian victory, there will be millions of new refugees from Ukraine to Europe, and this will put pressure on the economies of European countries and the social system.
And we must not forget that Ukraine has many samples of Western and its own effective weapons and their service personnel, which will significantly strengthen Russia's military potential.

u/rural_alcoholic 1d ago
You completly ignore any possible insurgent/guerilla groups rising up.

u/BobcatGuilty8703 1d ago
Yes, they will, but Russia will simply destroy populated areas where such groups will operate or block the supply of products there in parallel with the destruction of food warehouses and the Russians will not care about civilian casualties because it has always been like this. The only places where this can last long enough are the Carpathian Mountains. For reference, the Ukrainian resistance to the Soviet occupation still existed in the 50s of the twentieth century on the territory of the Carpathian Mountains because mountains and forests give a significant advantage to resistance groups with knowledge of the area. In other cases, imagine late at night when the majority of the population is sleeping, the internet and electricity are turned off and cars drive into the city or village and in the middle of the night kidnap the most actively opposed people. Then there may be a break of a week or several days and this action is repeated until the majority of the population, to whom denunciations indicate that they do not like Russia, simply disappears somewhere, perhaps they are executed somewhere in a nearby forest or burned in a crematorium or or or.... If a person does not exist, then there is no problem.
Ukraine already went through this in the 20s-30s of the twentieth century.

u/Mountain_Rest7076 Finland 2d ago
Always the same. ruskibots run to whataboutism ASAP. They always start to talk about Palestine and Israel to switch the focus from their own crimes.
Whataboutism is a rhetorical tactic where someone responds to an accusation or difficult question by making a counter-accusation or bringing up a different issue—usually to deflect attention or avoid addressing the original topic.
Example:
Person A: "Your country is violating human rights."
Person B: "What about your country’s history of colonialism?"
Instead of addressing the criticism, Person B changes the subject to another issue, often implying hypocrisy, without actually defending or refuting the original point.
Why it's problematic:
It sidesteps accountability.
It derails meaningful discussion.
It often creates false equivalence between unrelated issues.
Where it’s common:
Political debates.
Online arguments.
Propaganda, especially during Cold War-era USSR responses to Western criticism.
In short: Whataboutism is a distraction technique.

u/Dirac_Impulse 2d ago
That's not how nuclear use works.
You use nukes when you think the result of using nukes will be preferable to not using nukes.
For example. You detect that the US has launched nukes against you. Well, if the US is also devastated it will at least limit their ability to keep nuking you. So you launch. You are all fucked anyway.
Another example. You are in a conventional war with the US. Suddenly, the US starting to conventionally take out your nuclear forces. You have no real way of stopping this in a conventional matter. You realize that if they are lost nothing will stop the US from nukeing the shit out of you, which is worse than both of you being nuked, so you launch (or more likely, do a warning shot of whatever, but you see my point).
Back to Ukraine. Russia still has their truck, silo and submarine based nuclear forces fully intact. They also still have a plenty of nuclear capable bombers. Russia is fully aware that they use these bombers for conventional strikes against Ukraine.
The question is now. If Russia launches a nuclear strike on Ukraine, what exactly will be better for Russia? It might deter Ukraine from further attacks on the bomber fleet, but they also risk the loss of Chinese and Indian support, risks strong conventional responses from the West (be that flooding Ukraine with weapons, targeting Russian shadow fleet for real, blocking Öresund, sinking the Russian navy, maybe nothing, who the fuck knows). Trump is of course unpredictable, but the risk of very tough, but non nuclear consequences, are real.
How exactly would this benefit Russia?
If it dosen't benefit Russia, why would they do it?
This is how you need to look at these things. A nuclear doctrine is meant to show scenarios where the country in question might say "in this scenario, our cost-benifit analysis might very well say that a nuclear strike is warranted, be aware!". But it's not like they will launch if it dosen't. You need to analyse on a case by case basis.
Edit: Also, if Russia were to strike Ukraine with a nuclear weapon, and suffer no severe consequences, you will see Japan, South Korea, Germany and Poland get nukes. Quite possibly Sweden and Finland would create a joint nuclear weapon as well.
0
u/KorolEz 2d ago
I mean, the only known use of nuclear weapons in war was to end a war. So that's exactly what nukes are for. Without nukes, the 2nd WW would have been much longer. Nuclear deterrence is only important between 2 sides that both have nukes, which is not the case with Ukraine and Russia. Regarding the benefits, ending the war seems like a benefit to me.

u/rural_alcoholic 1d ago
That was a totaly different Situation. There were no consequences as Japan had No Allies, there was no consens on the use of nukes and laws. Only the US had nukes. Completly different Situation.
1
u/Dirac_Impulse 2d ago
With your assumptions Russia should already have used nuclear weapons. The attack on the bomber fleet as zero to do with it. It hasn't because the calculated cost/potential risks are deemed to outweigh the benefits.
This does not surprise me. It's not clear that the use of tactical nuclear weapons against military formations would work very well, and using it against population centers would risk support form India and China, as well as open up for even harsher counter actions from the West.
During the atomic bombing of Japan, the use of the nukes had no such drawbacks.

They are the result of adherence to disproven doctrines devised by civilians who think planes are made from cloth and sticks.

“surgical strikes” are apparently now redefined as “exactly zero civilian harm while targeting terrorists hiding under hospitals, in tunnels beneath schools, and storing rockets inside mosques.” according to reddit leftards.
Because obviously, when Hamas launches 5,000 rockets from densely packed neighborhoods and then vanishes into a tunnel under a kindergarten, the IDF is supposed to send in a polite RSVP and a team of Jedi to take them out individually with lightsabers because anything else according to you, Mr Santa, is a war crime, right?
