Just wondering. For scientific research purposes
Well, there's some truth to what he's trying to say, as in, the folks living in colder climates tend to be bigger in stature as compared to the ones living in warmer climatic conditions, case in point is the Nordics/ Anglos as compared to Southern Europeans. But yeah, he's blown it out of proportion to a ridiculous degree.

The North's industrial advantage is what allowed it to get the upper hand against an Agrarian South in the US civil war.

The industrial advantage became an even bigger factor as the war went on and South used up it's stockpile with no Industry to replenish supplies.

The North had a much larger population as well, plus better generals. Anyway, fuck the confederates.

BS.

The South was predominantly an agrarian economy relying on slave labor. The North on the other hand was heavily industrailised.

Even within USA in the present day, the Southerners (Texans) are seen as tougher guys compared to rest of America.
Russias MIC is saved by our babus and their pet upper brass who continues to buy a million garbage tanks from them.

America has lots of cold place too. Dakotas, Montana, Wyoming, Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois, Maine, New York, Utah, Colorado, Pennsylvania, Ohio. The cold Northern states beat the crap out of the hot Southern states in American civil war.

Man this just shows really how little you know about the civil war. The south was KNOWN for the military.

The tanks aren't the problem, rather it's the abject lack of care for the lives of rank and file soldiers and Junior Officers displayed by the brass.

It appears Russia has gained access to the vast natural resources it needs for long term war. The vast quantities of African iron ore, copper, titanium will be used to build weapons in factories.

Obviously, there's a whole scientific explanation to it. We all know how rugged Sherpas are compared to us plain people. But it only happens when the temperature difference is quite significant, not like Russia - Ukraine

Which is highlighted by the decision to buy a million tanks to please Their MoD and bueruaucrat masters and their Russian overlords, while still making our jawans wear 1974 fibre glass

Ik yoh support Russia, but they have done damage to our modernization programs

2 factors

1) Russian military industry makes them self-sufficient unlike Ukrainians.

2) Ukrainians are a lot more woke than Russians.

So, both resources wise and mentality wise, Russians are better suited for war than Ukrainians.

Because they are on the offensive, a pitifully ill-conceived and illogical one at that—against an extremely well-fortified enemy, who's actually determined to crush the Ukies for good.

Nah, a lot of it has been overexaggerated by Neocons and those stupid Lost Cause nutters.
The south had some fine generals, graduates from West Point. North ended up winning due to far superior logistics which allowed it to reinforce and ultimately overrun the south.

I know, that's why I find his gibberish so hilarious. And hill people in general are tougher than their plain dwelling cousins.

Also, it's not the only factor as he's alluding to.

Industrial base is a much bigger factor than Climate.

But the Russians seem to be as incompetent as them. Russian younger leadership is quite good tho I’ll admit

Kinda reminds me of when 18 militanrs charged into a 11 man ambush party back in 1990 and got slaughtered.

There is no denying that, but overall, I would argue that the North had better generals.
