    I’d agree, yet I keep seeing people argue the counteroffensive is going poorly for Ukraine because they’re not making serious gains in recapturing territory. People forget that there are many ways to “win” a war: one of which is the enemy simply giving up and withdrawing. Chipping away at the enemy’s ability or will to continue fighting is a path to victory.

    You don’t need to steamroll the enemy if you make it militarily, politically, or economically untenable for them to hold a position.

      Anyone saying Ukraine isn’t moving quickly enough is the kind of person who will ‘go out in a blaze of glory’ on the battlefield by charging the enemy like a fucking idiot.

      After they get shot in front of everyone, they just serve as an example of what ‘not’ to do to win a war.
