So what’s going to happen when Russia wins? So many people are convinced Ukraine is winning I wonder how these people will react
1.) media memory holes this situation
2.) they spin it as a win for Ukraine and the freedom of democracy because russia didn’t conquer 100% of ukraine ig
3.) nimodo 👽 💣 💣 💣
they memory hole everything. the insufferability of the libs on this issue will only be surpassed by their amnesia
Nah libs will cry about this 20 years later lamenting how they didn’t do anything when their governments clamped down on their freedom again.
The Ukrainian Air Force is destroyed, four of its major cities have fallen, Russia hasn’t even pledged a third of its million man army to the operation, Ukraine has to rely on nazi paramilitaries to defend entire cities and they’re busy murdering civilians for trying to escape
The war is lost, but I doubt you’ll see the same self-conscious cringing among liberals like you got with leftists
Neutral Ukraine via negotiations. LPR, DPR and Crimea recognised.
Nazis probably try something desperate? Big setback to them but what remains of them will continue where they left off but in shambles with everyone in command hopefully dead. Solving the Banderite culture in the country is a multi-decade project that I’m not sure libs are equipped to do anything about and wouldn’t really want to either. Communism probably remain illegal?
How do we know that Russia is going to win? I’m not doubting I’m just looking for like viewpoints from people who actually know what theyre talking about not randos on reddit going “EBIC winnar! heckirino ghost of kyeve!”
I don’t have specialized knowledge (feel free to ignore), but I think that without sanctions it’s basically a given that a top three military will be able to invade Ukraine at will, even with all of its issues (and it seems that many issues have been exposed by this conflict, will be interesting to look at it all retrospectively a year or two from now). From what I’ve seen, about 10% of Russian military resources have been dedicated to Ukraine, not sure if that has been increased in the last week and a half.
With all the sanctions, which allegedly were expected, although I would have to doubt that this scale was not quite planned for, things are more interesting. Success will probably work out based on Russia’s ability to form new trade relationships with China, India, and others without using USD or anything else Western. Unprecedented in modern times, but surely possible, and the demand from developing countries is surely there to build alternatives to US/USD centered trade systems. If Russia can’t swing it they will probably have a lot of issues domestically to sort out and may need to pull back from Ukraine without fully completing their mission.
