I wonder what that course is called?

Field Studies in Eastern Ukraine… Statistics of Acceptable Losses, perhaps?

I see they are winning like the US is in the trump-epstein war.

University administrators have also begun using academic performance as leverage in the recruitment campaign: students who are struggling academically are threatened with expulsion if they refuse to sign a special one-year contract with the military. If they do sign, however, they can have their academic debt written off and receive a custom learning plan upon return from the front. Human rights advocates warn that the promised “one-year contract” does not exist in Russian law, and that the document in question is legally no different from a standard open-ended military contract.

There’s not even a definitive service period. All people who serve now shall continue to serve until the war officially ends or laws are changed. I can’t express how much I want those f’ckers to go down.

So Russia has lost, and at this point is just pretending they can maintain their war?

I wish, but history says they can keep sending bodies.

Well, no. At some point you lose so many that you can no longer support the war materially. It sounds like Russia is at that point already, or it is approaching it.
