"Haha, imagine having such a terrible military that there's an entire Wikipedia article about it." List of Russian military accidents Article Talk This is a list of Russian military accidents that befell Russian forces after the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991. Accidents have variously been attributed to cutbacks in spending on equipment, the lack of maintenance of hardware, and the theft of parts for sale to criminal gangs due to low pay in the services. 1995 – A nuclear submarine had its electricity cut by an electricity company at a naval base due to unpaid bills. The submarine's cooling system ceased to function and the reactor "came close to meltdown". 2000s
What it means

A two-panel Wojak meme shows a smug, amused Wojak imagining that Russia’s military is so terrible that Wikipedia has an entire article listing its accidents. In the second panel, the realization becomes disturbing as the article displays serious incidents, including a nuclear submarine reactor coming close to meltdown. It is used as a sarcastic reaction to military incompetence, repeated failures, or an unexpectedly long list of disasters.
