Even the Russians are pissed and I don’t blame them. Language barrier, equipment, and 3 senior officers per 30 soldiers (that’s like photo op noncombat propaganda-level ineptitude, gotta have lots of people with lots of medals strutting around). Imagine joining a Mexican cartel in the middle of a shootout and not knowing a lick of Spanish. How fast can I just duck out?
Regarding the thumbnail in the article. Are those North Korean special operations soldiers using snorkels without any SCUBA gear? lol they’ll be spotted pretty far away. There’s a reason Western spec ops use SCUBA gear, and not being spotted swimming just below the surface is one of them.
How dare you makes fun of their elite seal team with snorkels. I’ll have you know the SNEALS are the most feared fighting force North Korea has ever produced. The SNEALS know no mercy.
I’m sure the communication between Russian and nk troops will be flawless and lead to no but fuckups at all.
/s just in case
Lemmy said the troops are just lies from South Korea

Voice of America (VOA) is a state media network funded by the United States of America, whose purpose is to project soft power through journalism. In 1948, Voice of America was forbidden to broadcast directly to American citizens to protect the public from propaganda by its own government. The restriction was removed in 2013 to to adapt to the Internet age.
In 2005, the Washington Post reported that suspected Al-qaeda operatives were flown into Thailand to be detained and tortured. VOA’s remote relay radio station in Udon Thani province has been widely suspected to be the torture site.
Most people do not believe that propaganda is anything that disagrees with the United States Government’s foreign policy, and find the idea that the VOA is less biased than the New York Times laughable. Lemmy.World endorses these absurdities by advertising Media Bias Fact Check in every post in their community. You have a limited time to let !politics and !world know what you think.
Yawn. Got anything to add to the conversation aside from ad hominem?
Let’s be clear that I am anti-Putin and anti-Kim.
Ad-hominem means “to the man” – that is, instead of attacking the message, one attacks the credibility of the messenger. This also includes when instead of defending the credibility of a message, one defends the credibility of the messenger. Ad-hominem is exactly the purpose of the MBFC bot. Instead of fact-checking the individual article, it tells you if the article is credible or not based on its clearly biased assessment of the article outlet.
You are correct in that ad-hominem is generally a terrible way of judging credibility. I am not making an ad-hominem fallacy. I am responding to an ad-hominem fallacy that has been spammed in every thread in this community.
Why should we trust what a liar and manipulator says?
