Wow, this guy thinks Russia is going to win. What a bold prediction that almost no one else would ever possibly make… Except for literally everyone, you know, when it started.

The problem with this brilliant insight is that Russia already lost. They lost the first year in. They could take all of Ukraine and they’ve still lost. War is just politics through other means and, holy fuck, have they lost; even if they win all the dirt they could possibly want. They could steamroll Kyiv tomorrow and it wouldn’t change that fact. They haven’t even gotten to “the hard part” yet; they stumbled in the doorway and fell flat on their face before they were even in the room, and the whole world knows it.

It doesn’t matter how much propaganda whatever countries put out: babies have grown to walk and talk since Russia’s “three-day special military operation” began, and that won’t easily be papered over
