You’re absolutely right. The weird and stupid fascistic thought process to rationalize that your guys are superior as not just soldiers, but as human beings to enemy guys never fails to appear in any western discussion of conflict. It’s the same logic that online Rhodesia and IOF freaks (big fanbase overlap, not at all shocking) use all of the time lmao. “My team’s guys are super soldiers who are also cool and epic! Meanwhile my WEAK enemy can’t even compare!” Ok so like… what makes your enemy weak? If your enemies are so weak, why do you seem to obsess over and insist that you have and need the most elite soldiers in history? How do you know they are elite if they only fight weak enemies?

Russia-Ukraine did a decent job at proving these clowns on both sides of the conflict wrong. Every elite soldier or unit or weapon we hear about entering the battle that ”will definitely change the tide” becomes just as likely to end up as worm food as the average soldier, with no visible impact on the conflict.

My fav was a western Nazi who tried to stop a couple of Ukrainian conscripts from retreating so they just shot him and kept going.

Once again the Russian blocking units are entirely projection.

NATO occupiers being on the receiving end of aerial superiority will never stop being funny

Russia isn’t playing fair because it isn’t letting me win

then come home and spin a lie about how he was "brandishing an AK at the top of the stairs" because americans' only moral lens for violence is through hollywood where the good guys spare the lives of the bad guys, only for the bad guys to suddenly grab a gun & have to be killed in immediate self-defense

Even after killing the guy you still managed to fuck it up by being so undisciplined that you multilate the body of the HVT beyond recognition, thus ruining the entire point of the mission and forcing the body to be quietly dumped into the ocean before it becomes an international embarrassment.

Was suppose to be a victory lap for imperialism but they got too mad and lost their shit mid way through. Seal team six is on the same level as conservative comedians.

But what if the epic navy seals did a scuba mission against every single PLA soldier?

I assure you, person who lives here, that I am here to help you.

Distant explosion followed by power outage

This is for your own good.

Destroys economy trying to create a forever war

The theory is that the U.S. thinks it is invincible

But seal team six guy has a big knife strapped to his chest

Obviously they’re supposed to murder civilians. That’s what they’ve always done

Invade back lines

There's some footage of the Russian ones so deep into Ukraine territory they manage to ambush supply trucks basically point blank with their arms

Recon in advance of movements, clear landing zones, etc. What the frogmen did in WW2. Basically nothing what they do today. Edit: and hell, these days you'd probably just use drones for the recon work.

Martyrdom for propaganda

Fight insurgents in occupied cities. Go on secret missions against non-combatant or allied nations. Train allies or insurgents. Same thing they do now, they're not gonna go near the front line. It's too risky, government has invested too much in their training when they could send grunt conscripts.

Americans: The Navy Seals alone could easily defeat the entire PLA.

America to Americans: Attention, all ~~gamers~~ Taiwan supporters. Taiwan is in grave danger, and it needs your help to defend the Taiwanese people and stop the evil CCP from eating all of our chips! But to do this, Taiwan needs some American expertise ~~on losing wars to communists~~ and a couple of our ~~Übermensch~~ Navy Seals. To help Taiwan, all we need is your credit card number, the three numbers on the back, and the expiration month and year. BUT– you’ve gotta be quick, so that Taiwan can secure ~~American interests~~ its borders and get the epic victory royale over Xi Jinping (Winnie the Pooh) and his gang of commies!

Americans: Sir, yes sir! 💳

The Navy Seal training they are undergoing is on how to move the goalposts when the PRC reunifies with Taiwan.
