Rules and Guidelines

1. No BigotryIncluding racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia.

2. Be CivilArgue in good faith, attack the argument; not the person, and promote a healthy debate. That includes implying violence, threats or wishes of violence and/or death.

3. No PornThis instance is not made to host porn communities. You're free to access porn communities on other instances through your account, but be mindful of Rule 4.

4. Use the NSFW tagUse your common sense: if you wouldn't want this image to show up on your work computer, tag it as such. In comments, use the
spoiler ::: tag for NSFW images, and put a NSFW mention beside links. Do not use NSFW images as your avatar or banner. :::
5. No Ads / SpamThis instance is not there to act as your billboard. If you want to promote your personal work, at least make the effort to be a contributing member of this community. Your account purpose shouldn't be to only advertise, make it natural.

6. Bot accountIf you are the operator of a "bot" account, make sure to flag is as such in the account's settings.

7. Right to privacyDo NOT distribute the personal information of someone else without their consent (aka doxxing). Information that is public domain can be shared, provided it is in good faith.
ex: The official email of an elected official is fair, the private phone number or the real name of a non-public person is NOT.

8. Report abuseThe report function isn't labelled the disagree button. You might not agree with someone, but that doesn't mean what the person says is against the rules. Using it repeately in this fashion will lead to actions being taken against the reporter.

9. ImpersonationDon't make an account with the intent to negatively deceive or defame someone on the fediverse.
ex: Parody of a famous person is okay, submitting outrageous content as appearing like another user, mod or admin isn't.

[@wartranslated:] "Prigozhin says again that Rusian lines in Zaporizhzhia and Kherson are falling, and it is only a matter of time until moves similar to Kherson and Kharkiv regroupings take place." (canada.unofficialbird.com)
 
 

Dmitri of @wartranslated has proven a reliable translator, and Prigozhin โ€” for all that he's a war criminal who we may hope will one day decorate The Hague โ€” has often proven to be more reliably in touch with tactical realities than his counterparts in the VSRF command structure or Russian media.

A necessary caveat here is that underlying Prigozhin's communications is his own political game, IE discrediting the VSRF & Shoigu et al to gain more influence himself, but that doesn't mean he's incorrect in his assessment here.

Via Dmitri (@wartranslated):

  • Prigozhin says again that Rusian lines in Zaporizhzhia and Kherson are falling, and it is only a matter of time until moves similar to Kherson and Kharkiv regroupings take place. Local Russian commanders are forced to provide false reports on their positions so as to not antagonise the high command.

The latter part in particular seems to be a systemic problem with the RU command structure โ€” false reports are passed up the chain, leaving general staff out of touch with realities on the ground and unable to give orders that will have the desired result.

Or, as Prigozhin so eloquently puts it, "the General Staff head, after a glass of vodka, screams like a woman, like a pig, demanding to return the positions!"
