Well... he isn't wrong. It is indeed completely irrational to fight 17 months, lose hundred thousand+ soldiers, most of your somewhat modern equipment and damage your economy for decades to come while proving to be incapable of even remotely reaching the goals set for just a 3-day-long invasion. And Russia should finally pack up, go home and end this shit show.
And now let's wait for his brilliant plan to actually get Russia to wake up from their insane fever dream and delusion of grandeur... That is his plan, isn't it? *cough*
Given that Russia appears to be winning this conflict, seems that the fever dream and delusions of grandeur are in the west.
You have to move the goalposts further than even Putin has, in order to come up with the conclusion that Russia is winning the conflict.
That's the conclusion of anybody who's been paying any attention and has at least a couple of brain cells to bang together. Soon enough this will become obvious even to the most imbecilic members of western public. In the meantime feel free to keep regurgitating the propaganda you've been fed for the past two years like a parrot.
As someone who largely agrees with the content of what you have to say, your delivery is absolutely disgusting. You litter every comment with personal attacks, insults, and are needlessly offensive. I genuinely don't know if you think that aggression helps get your point across, but it doesn't. And, considering how many of your comments get removed by mods for that insult and disrespect, you should realize that even if you personally think it's constructive, the mods don't. If you think the content of your comments is valuable, don't you think it'd have more value if it is left up for others to see, instead of having it removed where nobody can learn from it? If you resort to this namecalling and aggression so much, and the comments get removed, they're of no value. As an outside observer, by reading your comments, I'm less likely to trust what you have to say, and instead would assume you have a set agenda that you won't stray from. Your behavior detracts from your trustworthiness.
I appreciate the sentiment, and for what it's worth, you'll never find me making personal attacks or insults to people who engage with me in polite discussion. I realize I could do better engaging with trolls, but I find it difficult not to respond in kind. None of us are perfect, all we can do is try to be better.
I'll just summarize my point: if you think you have educational value in your comments, that value is nil if the comment gets removed.
Edit
No point lying. If you check the modlog plenty of his comments get removed. You can check for yourself.
Only in your dreams.
The only person who said 3 days was some random US general, why are y'all using it as some sort of gotcha?
But enough about Ukraine's performance in this war...
