Let’s hope he also costs AfD, Le Pen, Farage and the Australian Tories their expected victories.

Ukrainian conscripts will have a line of known-loyal barrier troops behind them with orders to shoot them if they fail to obey. Old Russian Army tactic.

It would be possible to humanely kill someone by overdosing them with opiates, though that fails the test of capital punishment advocates because it’s too pleasant a way to go out. So what they’re looking for is a way of killing someone that is neutral to mildly unpleasant, but falls short of torture.

If they capture Ukraine, they will have a fresh pool of conscripts, not to mention Ukraine’s impressive military technology.

The stupidity is deliberate. It’s an assertion of values and power (“we are in charge, not the pencilnecks who say things are complicated”). It’s like the aggressive ugliness of a Cybertruck: forcing your will onto everyone else wouldn’t demonstrate your power as much if everyone else didn’t find you objectionable.
