    It doesn’t only serve to kill Ukrainians and only to benefit Western foreign policy goals. It also serves to keep Ukraine independent from Russia, which is saving Ukrainians and Ukrainian culture from oppression and genocide.

    The Ukrainians are happy to be receiving Western support. They’re not mindless puppets, they’re choosing to continue to resist Russian invasion. They have their reasons for not wanting to be ruled by Putin.

      The issue is that Ukraine cant win and the West knows it.

      They’re not mindless puppets, they’re choosing to continue to resist Russian invasion.

      What percent of their army is conscripted?

        Oh, right, Russia will be in Kiev in three days. Forgot about how unstoppable the Russian military is.

          Cool, but I dont care about Russia being wrong with their predictions, what I know is that Ukraine losing is a foregone conclusion at this point. Its not like I enjoy people losing parts of their country, but its just reality. And the most important part was how many ukrainians are conscripted to fight.

            Their first prediction about how they were totally going to win was wrong. But their current prediction that they’re totally going to win is ironclad. Sure.

                  When the median age climbs by about a decade since the start of the is that a good or bad sign?

                Oh no, it’s well known that people over 40 can’t operate drone controls.

            And lots of russian popular warharks on tv, come on, no need to be deliberately obtuse just because Russia’s latest colonialism efforts have encountered problems.
