Guess you could say he was putin a tough spot.
That's what happens when he Russian to a solution.
I see vlad you did there.
Doesn't seem all that insightful to me. Looked to be a nothing burger.
I agree. The only substantial quote in the entire article seems to originate from an utterly bored intern analyst:
The think tank said the reason for the leak was unclear although it could be an attempt to "rehabilitate Wagner's image," following the rebellion on June 24 in which it seized military facilities in the southern city of Rostov-on-Don and marched on Moscow. The ISW said it makes Wagner "look professional and appealing in comparison with the regular Russian military."
That's it? It's literally just a corporate charter! What a misleading headline 😩
Newsweek is not a serious news outlet any longer. The get clicks based on their past reputation, not anything they currently contribute.
Yeah, also they're sourcing from ISW. Which is fine, if proper considerations are made.
But, they were not. Really low-hanging fruit of an article imo.
That is how it feels. Also, I like how they keep referring to Prigozhin as a "free man" while also saying that his whereabouts are unknown...
At this point I'll be surprised if he's still alive.
Now they're saying he has "cancer". I wonder how that will go for him...lol
Guys we should go easy on Putin not too long ago he was a baby just like all of us
Yeah, all fours
I know it's a funny play on "position" in the title, but "man being fucked on all fours" being an insult is a bit homophobic(/kinkphobic), so it might be best not to make that kind of joke
Man being fucked on all fours is a insult when they don't want people to say they were fucked on all fours.
Yes, exactly, it's homophobia all around
"Cool motive, still homophobic"
Your not even worth the argument have a nice day!
You're*
argument;* have
Better headline: "Putin put in awkward position" 🤣
A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
