    But I thought Russia is winning on all fronts and timelines? New high tech Tank here, elite mercenaries there. Just a matter of days it has been said? What happun?

    Seriously tho, fuck that government for sending these young men into their deaths.

      I think Russia is doing well, militarily. Even on lemmygrad, there is still a lot of de facto support for Ukraine/US.

      We should all remember that this is an inter imperialist conflict and par for the course that is capitalism. No matter what happens in this war, the working class loses.

        That support for Ukraine must be localized to specific communities on lemmygrad, because all the discussion I’ve seen over there has been very pro-Russian, painting Ukraine and NATO as the warmongers.

          Yeah, I’ve noticed that too. It is unusual for me, Western inclined as I am, to see the pro-Russian side of this conflict. I used to only see that on /r/UkraineRussiaVideoReport (I think that was the name).
