    When are they rolling these out to the Ukraine? Can’t be any less accurate than the shit they’re hitting schools and hospitals with now.

      Too late, they were sold on the black market in the 90s for a counterfeit Gucci bag and a brand-new Walkman.

      A kind reminder that saying “the Ukraine” is incorrect. Just like using the article is incorrect with any other country name (unless it’s a group of states, islands, etc.). And it may be triggering to some Ukrainians, because of the parallels to Russian “на Украине”, which basically implies that Ukraine is a region, not an independent country.

        When the Nazis the ruzzians were looking for were not in Ukraine, but in the comment section correcting grammar all along.

          Guilty as charged. But to be fair to Ruzzians, I was in Kyiv at the time of invasion. Perhaps, it was all justified after all.

      It probably would see action, except Russia probably doesn’t have enough to cannibalize for one working model, lmao
