I mean, its a war. Nobody is playing "fair" and you're delusional if you think they ever were.
But it's crazy to fixate on Russian losses and ignore the devastation rained on Ukrainian territory. Or the enormous debts Zelensky has had to assume in order to continue importing new munitions and mercenaries to fight. We've already seen bombings inside Moscow and assassination attempts (more than a few successful even) against Russian military and state security leadership. But that's not budging the front lines. Neither is it curbing the continuous barrage of artillery and Russian-based retaliatory drone attacks.
This is just the Iraq-Iran War on steroids. Two countries absolutely butchering their youth in a vainglorious attempt to claim hegemony over a minefield.
It's weird to suggest anyone would. But we've been hearing about how "Now is the time for a Ukrainian counterattack!" since 2022. Tens of thousands of Ukrainian conscripts got shoveled into Russian defense lines and butchered by mines and artillery, while Westerners cheered like they were watching some kind of pro-sporting event.
FFS, you can find videos all over the internet of Ukrainians and Russians butchering one another and bragging about it. You can find bespoke influencer news networks bragging about how their team is "Owning" the opposition with grisly reprisals. They're trending all over social media.
It's just a show for the West. You don't actually give a shit, because you don't see (or care) about the cost anyone is paying.
I wish people were more willing to confront the horror and less eager to speculate on the excitement.
Instead, we just see bloodlust. People online clutching their keyboards in rapt anticipation of the next bombing or shelling or assassination, like this isn't costing uncounted civilian lives to put points on the board.
To get people to see this as an ongoing disaster, tragedy, and fundamental political failure, rather than some kind of CoD Twitch Stream epic playthrough.
That doesn't make the post good. It's ghoulish.
Zero reported casualties. And then nobody wants to talk about retaliation as a consequence.
"Things will be worse once the bombs stop falling" is pure war propaganda.
What is it with the 101st Chairborn and their need to make light of human casualties?
Intelligence on the ground, particularly spotters near the target, would be the most obvious potential liabilities.
They've been bloodying one another for years on end. This isn't the first successfully Ukrainian strike since the war started.
To quite treating this bloodbath as a fucking football game.
You will never find anybody as morally reprehensible as Marxists who support and defend Russia's genocide in Ukraine. Go fuck yourself Russian shill
Marxists want the war to end and the working people to stop killing one another to the benefit of their bosses.
Only the imperialists need you to take sides in order to continue the killing.
No, fuck off moron. Russia started this war, they're committing a genocide, and they're 100% responsible for ALL of it. Trying to "both sides" the most obviously one sided conflict in the world by blaming the victims for defending themselves puts you and your shitty ideology in the same tier as nazis, which sounds about right for Marxism. You support and defend Russia's imperialist genocide, you're morally reprehensible.
Same line Americans used in Afghanistan and Iraq. Same line the Israelis are using in Gaza.
The genocidal impulse runs through the West like a plague. All you people know how to do is shoot and cry.
The only difference is that people are actually honest about all of these conflicts. They acknowledge who is a fault and what has actually happened. You lack that honesty, hence why you're using the whataboutism fallacy here to keep dismissing criticism and distracting from the arguments being made instead of addressing them directly. You know you can't defend the evils that Russia is committing on their own merits, and so you resort to fallacies. If you were able to then would've just owned up to the fact that you're piece of shit who supports the evils that Russia is committing, but you're not arguing in good faith.
The war stops when Russia, imperialist aggressor, stops.
Don't get your hopes up
True. Because with the rate of Russian advance, it will take them decades to even fully occupy the oblasts they want to occupy. By then, Putin will be dead and that is only when Russia fully ceases attacking.
That is expected to speedup though as headcount difference keeps getting skewed even more. At some point there just simply won't be enough people to hold the line.
Idk what makes you think his successor will be any different
His successor will be more incompetent.
Don't get your hopes up
It is inevitable.
Highly doubtful.
What are you even talking about?
There are no "two countries butchering". There is no symmetry.
There is a bandit state which invaded their neighbour (like many other neighbours they invaded before) and are murdering civilians, commiting war crimes and kidnapping children.
How many more hundreds of thousands of people have to die before the language sticks?
It's two populations of conscripts being shoved together in a rain of artillery and a morass of land mines.
Russian troll alert.
Lol right everyone who disagrees with you is a bot or troll, terminal patriot brainrot
It's all they know. You either agree or you're a computer trying to trick them.
But that's just westerners since the turn of the century. They've abolished public education, outlawed free speech, and turned their whole world into pop up ads.
They're sick and drowning. And all they know is blaming foreigners for their home grown problems.
Conscription Is Breaking Ukraine
If you were to apply this same logic during various points during the world wars, you'd have been calling for the allies to surrender.
wow you're such an empath
