    A strong sentiment following this conflict centers around Russia being so shit at war they can’t even beat Ukraine.

    On point for a non credible defense message space.

    Ukraine is fighting a literal world war alone and taking the kind of losses in a year most NATO countries wouldn’t accept in a decade.

    The humanity of the situation is that Ukraine is being told to fight by countries that don’t really care at all for their losses. When they persist to exist where others fell it’s credited to Russian incompetence as opposed to fighting skill and leadership.

    The history is that Ukraine was a buffer between Russia and Europe. Civilian infrastructure was over built to withstand a NATO invasion until Russia could counter attack. That’s why Asov steel works held out as a notable example. The extremely resistant electrical grid is another.

    The reality is that when Ukraine no longer wanted to be a buffer between Europe and Russia decided what Ukraine would be. the west sided with Russia over Crimea. Then the Donbos ‘independent’ regions.

    A decade long genocide has been executed in steps against Ukraine.

    In that time the collective of NATO can’t even produce enough artillery shells to put Ukraine at a 2:1 disadvantage.

    No opinions here matter. None have any value beyond glib entertainment.

    There was a 5 minute video posted here about if a guided munition was an anime girlfriend.

    A shit comment about Ukraine fighting better than NATO would isn’t out of line here.

      There is too much to cover here.

      As I said earlier, you clearly have minimal alignment of the primary understandings most others have. For starters, it’s clear you don’t even understand the premise of NATO.

      This is like me projecting opinions about cars when I think they’re made of wood and drawn by horses.

      You’re either a troll or you’re peaking on the Dunning-Kruger graph based on some obscure and narrow-scoped details you may have garnered. It’s so small picture and fundamentally flawed or entirely untrue.
