When Russian forces invaded Ukraine in the spring of 2022,
at least seven Russian generals were killed in the first
few months of the invasion and about 100 other senior
officers, because their army's poor morale and
consequent slow advance had forced high-ranking officers to
personally lead
operations on the front line.
The
invasion occurred only a month after antivaxxers blockaded
NZ's parliament buildings. Me
and Convoy 22
I am the very model
of a modern Russian General
My standing in the battlefield is growing quite
untenable
My forces, all in tanks and given orders unequivocal
Did not expect the fight to be remotely this
reciprocal.
I thought that we were going to invade the town of
Wellington
But antivaxxers in big trucks already had that job all
done.
I thought we would be gamboling in green fields quite
Arcadian
But Putin's got us stuck here in these muddy fields
Ukrainian.
I used to have 5 tank brigades but now I have lost
several
My fresh assaults are faltering with battle plans
extemporal
I can't recover vehicles though farmers with a tractor
can
It's becoming reminiscent of our failure in
Afghanistan.
The Kremlin claimed our jets by now
would be controllers of
the air.
Our aircraft are the best, but only
half my pilots
made it there
And at the rate those snipers work
my time here is
ephemeral
I am the very model of a modern
Russian General.
