    The point is not to hold more Russian land than Russia holds Ukrainian land (lmao). It’s to deplete their reserves and destroy their economy - which has been working out well, all things considered. You can regain every meter of occupied territory without firing a shot if the Russian state is brought to its knees.

      The same talking points (propaganda) that falsely predicted a Russian economic collapse within moments of western sanctions when the war started years ago.

      the Russian state is brought to its knees.

      Imagine not being a simp to western hegemony and not wanting humans to suffer in any country.

        Fucking troll.

        Putin said he was gonna roll over Ukraine, and we all thought he was gonna roll over Ukraine.

        What has been shown is that Putin and his war machine is a fuckin bitch.

        Ukraine has been going toe to toe with Russia for fucking years now.

        Sure Ukraine has been propped up, but Russian has had to empty prisons and make deals with Iran and North Korea for military aid. Talk about the Axis of evil clowns.

        I have almost no respect for Russian leadership. Almost less respect than I do for my next president.

        Nobody predicted an immediate collapse. Stop making things up. One look at Russia’s economy shows that the sanctions are highly effective nonetheless.

        Imagine not being a simp to western hegemony and not wanting humans to suffer in any country.

        Imagine being a simp for a mafia state run by the richest man on the planet hellbent on destroying a sovereign nation at the cost of his own people. Doesn’t get much shittier than this, doesn’t it?
