Russia about 140 million of population, 2 mil casualties mean every 1 of 70.
But we talking mostly young men, let’s say 20-50 broadly, Russia have 30 millions of able bodied men so they lost 1 of every 15.
This level of casualties can’t pass unnoticed, but there is no signs of such disaster.
Aggressive-Speed-987 on
2 million in 2026 is actually crazy. Haven’t seen numbers like that in decades.

Putin‘s secret purpose: kill all the young men who would form rebel groups against him.
NotOK1955 on
The differences are (a) Russia wasn’t invaded by a hostile force and (b) Russians knew they had to defend their country and were willing to die for that cause.
The only similarity to the 1940’s is that putin, like stalin, has no problem sending his people off to die for no reason.

Russia needs to be ended as a large land empire for the benefit of Russians and the rest of the world.

That just illustrates how unbelievably fucking awful Stalingrad was. Four years of pitched war across an entire nation and they only just now matched *one battle* in WW2.

According to the article, that’s:
* 1.4 million Russian casualties
* 0.6 million Ukrainian casualties
Or a 2.3:1 casualty ratio in Ukraine’s favor.
(Casualties = killed, wounded and missing soldiers)

Does no one in the comments understand that the word „casualties“ DOES NOT mean only deaths? It also includes INJURED, which is the majority of the 2 million.

Jumpy-Stress603 on
Two million Russian families (and a lot of Ukrainian families) have lost a son, an uncle, a father or a brother to satisfy Putin’s desire to be remembered as the leader who brought Ukraine under Russian control. By any civilized definition, the man is a war criminal, a monster.
Putin’s picture is hanging in the Palm Room in the White House now and Donald Trump put it there, in a place of honour, hung directly above a photo of Trump with one of his grandchildren.

So when he runs out of people to sacrifice is pootie going to pick up an AK (sorry, a Mosin, they’re running out of modern equipment) and go marching to Kiev?
Chickenshit asshole.
TurtleScientific on
Ignoring civilian casualties, this is a significant blow to the Russian population. A massive chunk of their young male population like this will be felt for decades. Wives widowed, children losing fathers, families that won’t be created, children that won’t be born, and parents that lost their sons who will need additional community services as they age.
And for what? Russia failed it’s people. It failed these soldiers. They weren’t fighting for their country. They were fighting for Putin’s ego.
RetroSwamp on
The amount of raw and uncensored footage coming out of this war is numbing but needed. You can really see the progress from traditional warfare and it’s evolution of smaller drone warfare. Their are losses on both sides but it’s honestly impressive on how Ukraine as been changing tactics with remote weapons and dumping numbers of Russian soldiers, mercenaries and vehicles.

What a weird comparison. Of course a 4 year war will have more casualties than a 6 month battle

hard to compare this to stalingrad given the lengths of the wars. the only real comparison here is the needless loss of life on a large scale, fighting pointless wars

This is a wildly strange comparison. 6 months in one city vs 4 years across a large country.

Putin could end this today if he felt like it, but his ego demands another million people die for him.
So be it. Fire up the meat grinder.

On one hand an utter tragic loss and waste of life this war of choice is for Russia. All they have to do is NOT be imperialist shitbags and this all stops.
On the other, holy shit Ukranians are some tough motherfuckers. Its inspiring, for as much war can be, to see a much smaller country that had little in the way of logistics to fight a war, stand up to a bully and break their metaphorical jaw. The fight isnt over yet.
imjustsurfin on
A good while ago, I posted that Ukraine could\would become Russia’s 21st century version of Stalingrad – with Russia being „the Germans“.
I was down voted to hell and back because, imo, people on the thread took my post LITERALLY – „*yeah, but Stalingrad cost x million lives in x months*“ was the sort of responses I got.
They could not (or refused to) wrap their heads around the simile.

I don’t think we have anything that can even get close to Stalingrad. Maybe the firebombing of Tokyo, but that was a civilian massacre.

Huge false equivalency, but not upset with the data.
needlestack on
What COVID taught me is that with the population numbers large nations have now, a few million deaths no longer raises eyebrows. It’s sort of stunning, but people just shrug and move on.
Unless it happens to fit a political narrative they like, then one death is the most important thing in the world and they’ll go on about it for years.
