      If Russia seems to be acting illogically to you, perhaps the problem isn’t with Russia but with your understanding of this war and Russia’s actual goals.

        Because Russia has no reason to be invading neighbouring countries?

        Idk just a thought. Not sure why we reward the aggressors. Remember that time the Russian backed separatists who totally weren’t just Russian military shot down that airliner?

Zelensky has never been in control because he was an actor in way over his head, beholden to US comprador oligarchs, and his life is openly threatened by high-level Banderite fascists should he get out of line. And he’s quite wealthy now, an oligarch in his own right. He’s in no way a “servant of the people;” that’s an act played by an actor.

          No reason

          Oh, of course. This all just happened for no reason, contravening all laws of cause and effect. History began in February 2022.

          Reward the aggressor

          Who’s rewarding anyone? They’ve won the war all by themselves. This is how war works, not some kindergarten where you can put countries in timeout. To think that acknowledging objective reality is somehow “rewarding” anyone is some real “punish the unbelievers” type shit.

          Real life is not marvel comic book that the “good guys” wins over the “bad guys”.

          Russia is winning and the logical conclusion is definitely not giving up at the finishing line and turn back. Do you know what logical means?

            It’s not a comic book, it’s international relations. You know what would help russias relations? Getting the fuck out of Ukraine.

            The logical conclusion is Russia fucks off and leaves other countries alone.

        bit of a stretch to characterize this as winning. Russia faced off with a much weaker opponent and has been spinning its tires for years now. the russian economy is in shambles. the most effective russian play this entire war was putting trump back in the white house, but that fucker will be dead before midterms. look at his puffy face and purple hands. he is a walking corpse

          Russia has been gradually taking more and more land and strategic footholds. This war is incredibly brutal, and the massive rise in FPV drones that are cheap and deadly forces slow movements, almost like a return to World War I style trench warfare. The Russian economy is still holding on strong, Europe is importing tons of gas indirectly from Russia through alternate channels, and Russia has spent the last decade trying to rely less on unreliable western trade partners. Further, there’s no real evidence of Russia putting Trump in the White House, nor would Ukraine suddenly be winning had Harris been in office.

              There’s no evidence that the collapse in Ukrainian defenses will slow down, rather it seems like it will accelerate as strongholds fall and the war becomes increasingly unpopular. Russia isn’t trying to take all of Ukraine, just the four oblasts, the Economist is trying to frame it as total and complete conquest of Ukraine. When compared to Russia’s actual objectives, Russia is advancing steadily.

              Further, Russia does not “throw meat” at the war. Russians are largely supportive of Putin right now because he’s doing a balancing act between appeasing the Russian capitalist class and the rising socialist movements in the public. Russia’s economy is holding strong, the sheer fact that sanctions are still coming out means they haven’t been effective thus far. I belong to the Marxist school of economics, which recognizes actual production over the largely financial western economies.

              Your final accusation that I’m a bot for not agreeing with you is just the cherry on top. You give clear examples of liberals manipulating data like the economist graph and using percentages of total Ukrainian territory and not the Donbass region, because when we measure Russia by its ability to achieve its actual goals its clear that its rapidly advancing towards them. You’re quite literally uncritically spouting liberal, western propaganda that falls apart at the slightest prodding.

              Incredible homophobia from you. Counteract my points with your own, not mask-off homophobia. Scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds.

              Russia is doing what it’s doing, regardless of what you, BiaB, or anyone else thinks it ought to be doing.

          If China had stepped in to stop Israel’s genocide, we would be having this exact conversation about China.

              Yes we would, and your dumbass would be screaming about it at the top of your lungs because reddit told you.

              Look at how you’re approaching the Ukraine war. You’ve shown that you know nothing about what was occuring pre-Feb 2022 and are adamant that everyone else that’s trying to tell you about it in good faith is a Russian asset. To you, history started on Feb 2022; and anyone that tries to tell you otherwise for the sake of “nuance” and “context” and other frilly fuckass bullshit is a Russian asset personally getting paid by Putin himself.

              Not only do you know absolutely nothing, but you have zero intention to critically engage others because of your arrogance. You won’t learn a single thing and you are adamant about not learning a single thing. That kind of behavior will absolutely not disappear in a hypothetical situation where China directly intervenes to end the genocide.

          It doesn’t matter if Russia is a bully or not. Marching off of Ukraine is not a logical conclusion, it will not happen.

              Because Russia is winning and has no reason to stop. Whether or not anyone is “okay” with Russia winning makes no difference on what the logical conclusion is, which is eventual Russian victory, as Russia is winning and Ukraine is losing even with NATO support. Russia stopping while they are ahead and the war is coming to a close is the least logical conclusion.
