How do people even cope with that? I feel like dying when it gets over ~23 °C

What happpened to the -chuds? They are admitting that russia has the upper hand

Do they really belive that it would be good to give property developers a bailout?

Caramel Marks was right and the ~~people~~ ponies of Stalliongrad realized that! (Honestly, you should check out the Heart of Iron IV mod Equestria at War. In my opinion the best total conversion and you get Nuke Fish/Posadas as a leader)

It's not really damning that they talk about delivering weapons. The leaked meeting was about prep for briefing the german defense minister about the feasability of supplying Taurus to ukraine. The br*ts and the fr*nch already delivered comparable weapon systems.

The spicy things from the recording are:

• There are nato troops on the ground in Ukraine
• Ukraine's air force is severly depleted (< 10 Su-24 is mentioned)
• Attacking the bridge between Crimea and russia is explicitly discussed
• Russia had the ability to wiretap into a meeting of high ranking militairy officials
• They talk about how Taurus can be used in Ukraine while keeping direct involvement of germany secret (create "flightplan" in germany and send it secretly into Ukraine via car)

And to a lesser extend:

• Scholz lied about reasons why Taurus cannot be send there

Edit: Word

Yes, definitively. I bet that the MAD (Militärischer Abschirmdienst, Military Counter-Intelligence Service) has a very bad day. There is some speculation on why russia made this recording public, because now germ*ny knows that at least one internal communication channel is compromised. But (speculation on my part) one of the call/meeting participants was in Singapur during the call, maybe russia was able to wiretap it because of that?

Word is also that the br*ts are not very pleased about it, because the call leaked that br*tish and american personell is on the ground in ukraine, providing help in equipping planes with western weapons

Russia releases wiretapped recording of german military officials discussing Taurus delivery for ukraine

FRANKFURT, March 2 (Reuters) - Germany is investigating an audio recording published in Russian media reported to be a conference call of high-ranking German military officials talking about weapons for Ukraine, sparking concerns of espionage in Germany and calls for clarification from Russia. A German defence ministry spokesperson said on Saturday that it couldn't confirm the authenticity of the recording, but the Federal Office for Military Counterintelligence Service was investigating the matter and all necessary steps would be taken.

The recording can be found here on vk.com. I listened to it and think that it's authentic. Around 30:00 one of them says: "Imagine the press gets wind of this"

Edit: The German Ministry of Denfense confirms the authenticity of the recording (Article in germ*n)

I'm currently sitting behind closed ports and cannot find any peers when I try to torrent it. I'll try again at home tomorrow

~~To be fair, that post in particular seems to have been locked because it is a repost. This post is older and has quite a bit of engagement. While a quick search in the popular subs reveals that this story seems to be surpressed there, it is not true for r/TheDeprogram. Even if that sub has some problems, this story is none of them.~~

The screenshot was posted to r/TheDeprogram, it wasn't taken there, I'm dumb.

I just don't understand how one can be so brainwashed by consumerism to think that a 45€ cup is something special...
