UK defense intelligence now estimates Russia has suffered roughly 1.14 million casualties since 2022, with about 353,000 killed and wounded in 2025 alone. Recent daily losses hover around 1,000 as Moscow pushes to encircle Pokrovsk, a shattered but vital rail and road hub in Donetsk.

  2. It happens, more concerned about the Ukrainian death toll. After all, they’ve been invaded unlike russia

  3. So what?

    Until ordinary Russians grow a fuсkіng spine and give a real ѕhіt about these casualties, Putin will keep signing off on his underlings’ plans to keep the slaughter going while dooming the Ukrainians to keep living with a gigantic Russian-made bullseye on their collective back.

    These losses would bother practically anyone else but *no one* is as bloodthirsty and imperialistic as the Russians have proudly shown. As long as the bоugіе and self-absorbed “ІіbеrаІ” dudes of Moscow and St. Petersburg have enough income and connections to avoid being drafted or signing up, tens of millions of other Russians will either sign up for a chance at frontline “glory” for the “Motherland” or dutifully find a way to enable it by working their shifts to churn out drones, rifles, guns, and shells at a factory in the bowels of Моrdоr.

    Can you imagine the PLA suffering these kinds of casualties? The number of families who’d have to eat the loss of their only son on the battlefield would violently flip the table of their [patriarchal concept of family](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Son_preference_in_China).

  5. As if the Russians with any real power care. He can probably lose a few more millions until there is a revolution.

  6. He can hide them pretty damn well actually, since Muscovites don’t give a flying fuck about the poors in the provinces

  8. Russia failed to compete with the West – economically and kinetically – before this unnecessary, illegal war – when Russian birth rates were already circling the drain. But now, in addition to the complete loss of good will, and the brain drain of the most productive and creative Russians, Putin has turbo charged Russia’s demographic crash. He’s the Wile E. Coyote of dictators, who keeps failing to catch the roadrunner while continually dropping an anvil on his own head. And that’s how history will remember him when he’s rotting in the ground.

  9. He doesn’t care… he gave out meat grinder appliances to some families who lost family members while serving in the Russian military who were killed in action.

  10. The Russian people don’t care. They will accept whatever happens as just the inevitable outcome and they don’t have the appetite to try to change things. As long as they have vodka they don’t give a shit what happens around them.

  11. Yes but who cares? Russians keep shouting since WW2 they can make more.

  12. When will the typical Russian be fed up with this? The recent history of Russia is not a good indicator. Any internal revolutions that have occurred we’re only a means by which a new authoritarian power structure ultimately took charge, instead of a democracy.

    I believe Russian societal appeasement to the powers in Moscow has been built in by centuries of internal oppression, first by the Czars, then the Soviets, and now the post-Soviet kleptocrats. Almost everyone in charge in Moscow now was a member of the communist party under the Soviets. The names of the internal police and security apparatus may have changed, but their methods have not, nor have the personnel. How many people did the Soviets purge and kill since they rose to power? What has changed since the dissolution of the Soviet Union, based in Moskow? We know the answers to these questions: very little.

    Does average russian citizen believe they have a voice against this power? It doesn’t look like it. I don’t expect any change in the near future.

  14. Can anyone tell me where Putin is currently getting soldiers? I’ve been watching that idiot Huffman family on YouTube. They emigrated from Texas to Russia because they thought the US would turn their kids gay. Well, turns out, they made the dad enter the Russian military. He is on state TV praising Putin. He slipped by saying he had some “close calls” on the front line but shot down a drone, saving his “brothers.” Their YT channel is filled with pro-Russian comments and anything I comment they hate on me.

  15. yes he can. “the special military operation us going as planned”

  17. Russians dont give a shit about human life…

  18. 1 million of them would probably still be around if there was just one dead Vladimir Putin.

  19. It’s a country of 144 million people—you actually can hide it especially if they are people who were on the lower end of the social hierarchy to begin with.
