Yeah, it's like the Soviet–Afghan War where the Russians shot themselves in the foot by fighting a completely unnecessary war that they were ill-equipped to fight in.

I love and hate how you are technically correct, but not for the reasons you think.

The Soviet Union tried invading Afghanistan long before the US went in, and got their asses handed to them in humiliating defeat. Now, Russia gets its ass handed to it in Ukraine.

Yeah, i guess most redditors are too stupid to know russia invaded afghaninstan in the late 70s and into the 80s and got basically the same shit they are getting now in ukraine. Guess i shouldnt underestimate the idiocy of the average redditor.
