Russia is not losing, Ukraine is not winning…

This exercise is getting tiring.

Above is the Hornet 🐝 drone. It should have been a game-changer and fire the last two months, it was a successful campaign that deprived Crimea of gasoline ⛽️ supplies. But Russia is now finding countermeasures. Anti drone units have been deployed to the area, and they are shooting down the AI directed Hornets.

So Anne Applebaum wrote a piece for The Atlantic, which encourages further Ukrainian resistance to Russian intervention. Timofiy Mylovanov has written a thread on X that recounts the content therein.

Isn’t this cute? Same old shit, Russia needs to lose so that the Central European countries don’t have to spend 2% of GDP on defense and enjoy exploiting Russia for resources. But we are too chickenshit to go against Russia directly and have outsourced the dirty work to Ukrainians.

The problem is Ukrainians can’t win. They can inflict significant damage against Russia but firing rockets at Crimea is nuisance but will not hinder Russia’s advance. Ukraine might have reoccupied Kharkov and part of Kherson but those were poorly defended areas that Russia has withdrawn from. The battle is not over regions but against the army and the Ukrainian regime.

The problem with Eastern Europeans is they are ideologically stuck up thinking they have a superior government system and that’s why everyone owes them. If they were pragmatists, they would have already found a compromise with Russia. The East Europeans do no benefit from being lackies of the West.
