    You’d get invaded by Russia instead though. It would be a good reversal of fates tbf.

          It’s always the time and always has been.
          But the actual problem to be solved is not the system, but the minority of people who always rise to the top in any system and ruin it for everyone else. There are always positions of power and people happy to exploit them. That is something, no system so far was able to solve.

          It takes a long time to fully deplete the male population of a country like Ukraine. They are Slavs and fight till the end (literally to the last Ukrainian). The US just needs to keep Starlink available and keep feeding targeting info. Ukraine does the rest. Sure, they will eventually run out of men. But they will then send the women too and keep the fight going for another few years.
          Ukraine is the best-possible proxy ever. That war will keep going with or without further western funding.
