I’ve heard that about Mosins as well, with the sole proof being a single photo of an irregular holding a sniper Mosin, which is of course still a perfectly valid weapon to use even in 202x
I’ve also seen this claim made baselessly about T-34s, as if Russia somehow has any functional combat ready T-34s left since 1960
I had a…person I knew, tell me in the summer of 2022 how he was now allowed to be racist against all russians and solemnly stating how russians only know how to do mass assaults with all the men and it didnt work for them this time just like it didnt work during the winter war. He was an insufferable redditor so I’m sure he thinks that the ukrainean casualty numbers for russians are accurate
Another person told me everything that happened in Ukraine since 2014 is good because even dying in a war is preferrable to living under a Russian puppet government like in Belarus
Look, buddy. The Winter War and Continuation War are propagandized to hell and back in Finland. It’s like 50% of our national character, that we murdered so many soviets that we actually basically won. I remember being really weirded out when I first heard that we lost the war, because none of our teaching or documentaries or anything actually just say how badly we ate shit.
That’s a ridiculous claim considering the MASSIVE back stock of AKs Russia has. Seriously I could buy them dusting off older AK from an old Soviet warehouse but, museum Mosins? The fuck?
I for one am shocked to hear that the obviously superior forces are still winning the same way they have been since the start
I had an acquaintance in real life tell me Russians were resorting to grabbing old Mosins out of museums to arm their soldiers in 2022
It was plucky when Ukraine mounted a maxim gun on a convertible BMW or whatever tho.

Russia pulling T-34s out of a giant vat of cosmoline like a mammoth sucked into a tar pit but in reverse

finnish people are certifiably not okay
So I assume that they’re going to find a way to die if Trump wins again right?
This person you knew should probably look up who won the winter war.
