      All because one pathetic man who is desperate for a conquerors legacy controls all of Russia, what a fucking world we live in.

    2. 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.

      2 million in 2026 is actually crazy. Haven’t seen numbers like that in decades.

    4. Putin‘s secret purpose: kill all the young men who would form rebel groups against him.

    5. 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.

      **Слава Україні!**

      **🇺**🇦

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

    7. 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.

      Putin is destroying Russia economically, demographically and politically, all for his malignant ego.

    11. What a terrible, useless, waste of life for Ukraine and Russia. All due to the insanity of Vlad Putin.

    12. Why does it say 2 million casualties in the first paragraph and 1,4 million casualties in the second one?

    13. TrickyCheek9722 on

      Putin wants to beat Stalin’s record of being the worst tyrant in Russian history 

    14. 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.

    15. 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.

      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.

    17. 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

    19. mattchampin on

      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

    20. DamNamesTaken11 on

      Putin wanted to be a new Tsar, guess he forgot that military incompetence is what brought down the last one.

    21. The_Mean_Gus on

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

    22. Joshithusiast on

      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.

    23. Surroundedonallsides on

      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.

      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.

    25. Impressive-Weird-908 on

      Got to get those Russian male to female ratios back down for ole times sake.

    26. Woah. 450K dead on their side. That’s more than the US lost in all of WW2.

    27. MythOfDarkness on

      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.

    28. 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.

    29. grtk_brandon on

      Humans as a species have the resources and technology to eliminate virtually every major problem the average person has, and yet this is what we squander it on.

    30. and about 3/4 of those are Russian. Putin really had a bright idea with this special military operation

    31. johnconnor4077 on

      Stalingrad was one battle, Ukraine is a full war. Yes, what is happening in Ukraine is a tragedy, but to compare the 2 is incredibly disingenuous
