I wonder if Putin's allies will shoot down his plane, poison him, or throw him out a window. They surely aren't gonna wait much longer now that he's plainly losing his little war.

[–] lauha@lemmy.world 49 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Putin hasn't flown a plane for years. He only uses his armored train if he leaves his bunker

[–] Valmond@lemmy.dbzer0.com 18 points 3 weeks ago

A la Kim jung un.

[–] zr0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 18 points 3 weeks ago

He is ex-KGB. He knows all the tricks. Quite hard to get him. It would be easier to just ignore his orders.

Putin colored meat crayon behind a lada

So not only their refineries but also their feelings are hurt? Poor puppets of a psychopath.

[–] zergtoshi@lemmy.world 37 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It doesn't look like civilian infrastructure and residential buildings were hit.
That's how you do it, if you don't want to be perceived as a disgusting piece of shit!
Whoever did that (one can guess...): kudos!

[–] Tja@programming.dev 2 points 3 weeks ago

I think a shopping mall was hit, it was right next to the refinery. No victims (according to Russian sources, so who knows).

We've got to be down to weeks, if not days at this point.

Rest in piss, Putin.

[–] Valmond@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

There are parallels in history, which doesn't mean it has to go down like that but if it does, it could take at least another 6 months or something. Putins only raison d'Γͺtre is not to die and to regenerate the soviet union, he's lost one, but have shown he's quite good at the other...

Eh, staying alive is easy. There's not a single living person right now who failed it.

[–] Zidane@lemmy.ca 14 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Jokes on you I drowned as a child and was technically dead at one point!

[–] Klear@piefed.world 9 points 3 weeks ago

Literally failing at life smh my head

[–] daellat@lemmy.world 12 points 3 weeks ago

I'm not that optimistic but I hope to be wrong.

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Chew him up like Poutine

No, it is not. It is a normal state of things from now on.

[–] jestho@lemmy.zip 13 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

And if it was, it's on purpose. Fire is after all very important.

Celebratory fires, residents are partying because they're so happy with how well the air defense systems work.

~~What is this actually?~~ Ukraine hit Moscow oil refinery. Now we know why Putin host Asean leader in Kazan instead of the capital. Maybe Putin will move the capital to Kazan later 🀣

[–] imetators@lemmy.dbzer0.com 18 points 3 weeks ago

Bullseye! Major hit on fuel infrastructure will cripple war machine. Moscow gets another try to taste what war actually is.

History rhymes, doesn't it, Olga?

Your burning birds take flight once more to show your enemies that they can fuck around, but they'll also have to find out.

Too bad Putin didn't read about Ukrainian history before invading. He could've spared himself and his people some grief.

[–] Mojitas@lemmy.world 16 points 3 weeks ago

Fuck around and find out pootin.

[–] Clutter@sh.itjust.works 13 points 3 weeks ago

Welcome to the war assholes!!

We don't need no water
