These documents have been leaked (deliberately?) by the Ukraine Armed Forces, and seem to be genuine. A huge number of Ukraine eyeballs have been on them via Telegram channels — but no one has seriously disputed their authenticity.
What they reveal is horrifying.

This plus amnesty int’l (an imperial NGO) turning on Zelensky makes me think we are nearing a turning point in Ukraine.
I wonder how this will shake out? Most Americans are incapable of critical thinking, but you think blowing through several billion in a few months for a failed proxy war would raise some alarms.
Yeah, the issue is that in the US people have the memory of a burning log. People will be upset, state dept will go on about how it’s totally necessary for democracy, then after Ukraine loses they’ll use that to boost military spending further and people will forget after 1 election cycle. It’s honestly brilliant the way these same ruling class ghouls can wipe their hands clean of all responsibility every 4-8 years.
You underestimate how bloodthirsty many of the people here are. And how little empathy we show to the poor (it’s more like downright contempt and hatred). Foreign wars are also like entertainment for many people here.
