Russian military experts conducted tests of the ‘trophy’ Bradley M2A2 ODS SA vehicle, concluding that it is superior in every respect to the BMP-3, which are #Russia vehicles of similar purpose.

This analysis was published by a number of Russian military channels, the most dramatic of which was probably a post by the popular ‘Rybar’. He blamed the backwardness of Russian weaponry on a faction of believers in the superiority of the Soviet arms industry. ‘Rybar’ wrote that “the price of such a swap of concepts is thousands of lives of our infantry”, having in mind here the almost religious dogma that everything Soviet and Russian is more perfect than the West, and that the more clumsy the better.

‘Rybar’ is right. He only forgot to add that this ‘swapping of concepts’ can be found in virtually every sphere of life in Russia and, all in all, all of Russia is one big ‘swapping of concepts’, where slavery is called ‘freedom’, degeneration ‘conservatism’ and serfdom ‘democracy’.

‘Rybar’, as many others like him, blame random generals and specialists who present absolutely bizarre practices as ‘the new normal’ but he, just like everyone, ignores #Putin who introduced this ‘swap of concepts’ from the highest level of authority already in 2000’s and codified them in writings by Dugin, Surkov, Karaganov etc.
