    I do not take anything you say seriously. You clearly live in an alternate reality with another poster on this board where Russia is always on the brink on conquering all of Ukraine tomorrow or the next day.

    Since the beginning of the War, the concept of time is relative with them (one week war? Three week war?)

    Your brain is roiling with cognitive dissonance. You were inculcated, from DAY ONE, with a visceral hatred of Russians. Accordingly, in your mind, Russia CANNOT not be reeling.

    OTOH, I have not been prognosticating an imminent end. Rather, I have surmised that Russia DOES NOT WANT TO HURRY. It’s advancing slowly but slowly, chewing into our proxy’s human strength, destroying our wonder weapons, while suffering comparatively light losses itself while watching the Collective West panic and falter around it.

    Because Russia believed it could conquer a country the size of Texas with 70,000 troops.

    Well then, let me know when the RGF is able to capture Kharkiv. Seeing it is only 20 miles from the Russian border and the RGF started a new front to capture it in May of last year.

    First time in human history a country wants to win a war slowly. Wonder what the Russian people think about that bizarre strategy.

    I’m the one who has tirelessly acknowledged that Russia is allowed to have its concerns and implored people like you to suit up if you so badly want to see its demise. As it stands, our proxy is faring poorly without your help.

    There’s a first time for everything. It’s also the first time in war a drone has your name on it if you so much as peek over your trench.

    Russia doesn't want or need his help; they are trying to win slowly. They don't want too many swift victories.

    Of course it’s entirely possible that Russia is strongly this out expressly to hear your grinding teeth.

    The U.S. and Russia …

    One country has engineered some 400 military interventions since WWII, 200 since the end of the Cold War, this per the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft.

    The other country is Russia.

    You may not have woken up that morning, but you’ve sure spilled a great deal of computer ink cheering for that very event. There’s almost 34,000 posts above that reflect this undeniable fact.

    Post-counting fetashist. Besides, it’s hard work to counter hordes of apparatchiks.

    This truly makes no sense. I’m sure there was wit there, and I am a big fan of wit, but this one jumped over my intellectual capabilities. And that’s on me.

    Well, that’s what happens when you swim in the deep end when you can’t swim.
