    The truth is, we don’t fucking know. No expert would tell you that Russia is ready to invade Ukraine, and here we go.

      I’m not an expert either and I could have predicted the invasion based on:

      • huge buildup of troops in preparation for invasion
      • 8 years prior they had invaded after saying they wouldn’t

      Be careful here. Experts would tell you that Russia was going to invade Ukraine. However as you say Russia wasn’t ready for it.
