I remember some alt right twitter people at the start of the war talking about how the russian army was super powerful and was going to create a huge mercenary army full of seasoned ukrain vets and crush the decadent west. Flash back to reality and they've captured only slightly more than they did in the half war of 2014 at the cost of hundred of thousands of lives and thousands of tanks.
Nato didn't get 100% off scot free. Although a lot of the fancy tech paid off the fact that they couldn't supply an ally with enough ammo is embarrassing and shows that they were not prepared for a real war.
Anyways tune in next week for another episode of 10,000 Dead Slavs in a Corn Field.

President Joe Biden has authorized Ukraine to use a powerful American long-range weapon for limited strikes inside Russia in response to North Korea's deployment of thousands of troops to aid Moscow's war effort, according to two senior U.S. officials.
The easing of restrictions on allowing Kyiv to use the Army Tactical Missile System, or ATACMS, to hit targets inside Russia is a significant reversal in U.S. policy and comes as some 10,000 elite North Korean troops have been sent to Kursk, a region of Russia along Ukraine's northern border, to help Moscow's forces retake territory gained by Ukraine.
The Biden administration fears that more North Korean special forces units could follow in support of this effort.
The move precedes by two months the return to the White House of President-elect Donald Trump, who has signaled he intends to end the war between Russia and Ukraine, though without offering details of how he will do so.
One U.S. official said the move is in part aimed at deterring Pyongyang from sending more troops. North Korean leader Kim Jong Un must understand that the initial deployment has been a "costly" mistake, said the official, who like others interviewed for this story spoke on condition of anonymity because of the matter's sensitivity.
This is a good and dramaphilic move by Biden: Let Ukraine go hog wild for the next few months and Putin can't really do shit but hold on and wait for Trump's turn.

So later Zelenskyy started crying about it
Chancellor Scholz told me that he planned to call Putin. His call, in my opinion, opens Pandora's Box. There may now be other conversations and phone calls. Just a lot of words.
— Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський (@ZelenskyyUa) November 15, 2024
And this is exactly what Putin has long sought. It is critical for him to weaken his isolation, as… pic.twitter.com/zcTydmnxsM
Scholz basically don't want that Putin wiped out the electric infrastructure during winter since a lot of refugees will go to Germany and that will kill even more his election so he reminded Putin that he didn't gave long range missiles to Ukraine.
Ukrainian politician started crying that Ukrainians returning to occupied areas
"At least 30% of Mariupol residents are returning to the occupied areas, some for good. An even higher percentage is going back to other occupied cities and towns, where the destruction isn't as severe," Andriushchenko said.
He also provided statistics from the past year since Russia introduced a single entry point at Sheremetyevo airport for those returning to the occupied areas.
"At least 350,000 Ukrainians tried to enter. Of these, 100,000 to 130,000 were allowed in, while the rest were turned away. About 40% of those who entered left again after registering their property under new Russian rules and picking up their belongings. However, around 50,000 to 60,000 Ukrainians returned to the occupied areas for good," Andriushchenko said.
These 4 million were left to survive without housing, compensation, or any help. The largest wave of departures happened in February and March, not just from returnees but from others as well. This senseless government decision pushed people either abroad or into the occupied areas. Why? Try living on the street with a family of three. Can you survive? Or with a minimum wage of 10-15 thousand hryvnias – is that enough? Probably not. That's why many refugees went to places where they at least have a roof over their heads. It's hard to blame someone for not wanting to be homeless," Andriushchenko wrote.
Did Reddit posted this story ? Of course not. Since it's going against their soy worldview.
Then Zelenskyy been non stop switching his position from Trump plan good we want peace to Trump plan bad we will fight
Musk made fun of him and it hurt a lot of soyboys

The guys are focusing on winning where it's important and if they ignore all other places where Ukraine is losing then those losings never happened. Even tho Ukraine is also losing in Kursk but they can blame it on Korean that are still nowhere to be found after more than a month now

The Polish people do so much and this is how you repay them? You hohols are fricking trash. The only good thing out of the Trump presidency might just be your shithole getting screwed over. Frick you
You repay those Poles who help, not the ones that hate you and want to see you destroyed by russia. Like you. You don't deserve repayment or gratitude. You deserve a smack in the face.
you deserve to be on the frontline kitty
Thought so. Know your place. Your government will help us in a rightful cause whether cockroaches like you like it or not. Even what Trump would do is helping. You lost.
I think Ukraine lost actually. 300k times.
Remember that you even didn't try to fight when Germany occupied your country in 1939. So shut up
Not as hilarious as 4 partitions of Poland
Let me guess: Poland is for Poles, Britain is for Poles, but nazis are in Ukraine😂 And don't worry - I'm in Ukraine and I've never been in Poland. Almost forget - our agriculture can destroy yours, right? Even though 20% of our field mined!
Yes, Poland is well-known worldwide as a nation of men with small peepees
Poles have a much larger average peepee length than Ukrainians
Frick poles. Mein Fuhrer should've killed them all.
For now Ukrainians are who live here rent-free :)
Ukrainian skunk, since you can use X you probably aren't fighting, so likely you escaped to Poland. You are going to insult a nation that gave you and your country everything for free?
He's making a joke.
How many angry Ukrainians are living rent-free in Poland? 😊
we, and me personally, are working, paying taxes AND rent, thanks very much for asking!
I'm glad you finally do. Good stuff.
Finally do? Tf? Poland don't pay anything Ukrainians now and even before they stopped, almost all Ukrainians there are worked. A lot of them go back home. I'd like to see you if russia will attack your country and you would be forced to run to another country to survive, Piotr

Yet all those geniuses looking exclusively to hang on some copes that Russian economy is about to collapse.
Inflation can be 200% but if you still have a job and your salary increased by 220% you got richer.
Same people jerked about that sanctions effect is not directly. Like can those neighbors even think ? When sanctions are announced economy get directly hit and has to find alternatives, the more time passes the better adopted the economy gets towards those sanctions and also finds alternatives.
Also let's assume everything is ultra bad for Russian economy. Will China let Russia lose against the west ?
EU was saying banning Russian from swift the only world banking system at that time will destroy Russian economy and today there are tons of swift alternatives
Russian economy is collapsing, they can't hide it anymore.

Am I the only one who thinks this would be a win for Ukraine? Looks like they keep 85% of their landmass and remain a sovereign nation. I don't see a realistic more favorable alternative.

But they haven't gained ground in Kursk since 15 August so they actually now defending with bigger loses

But yesterday was big day for pro khohol it was first time a western tank destroyed a Russian tank. It's a very big day and proves western tanks superiority despite that event western tank vs Russian score card in Ukraine is like 1:80
But on that post I mentioned that Ukraine actually lost that battle and very hard
Russian broke through around 6km and entered Kupyansk

That brigade is now in HUUUUGE trouble all types of glowies are send to find the reason of this fail. The only comment 116 brigade has given is that Russian attacked them during rotation.
Losing of Kupyansk will lead losing of black marked territory
And let Russia go after Izym and lyman. Russian being near those 2 location will lock all highways to Donbas and let only 2 weak roads to support whole Donbas front for Ukraine in Donbas so its as good as GG for them in such case.
Ukrainian didn't fought as hard now in Pokrovsk as they do in Kupyansk because it's easier to defend it than Pokrovsk

And some neighbors even suggest Russian claimed a huge chunk of Kupyansk.
So back to main topic.
Trump plans is way better than what in reality Ukraine can get yet Redditors mad
Here how things will go with Trump plan. Putin will say he won't sign anything with unelected president. Republicans know it and been stealthy suggesting it:
But Zelenskyy is against it, he is going to lose and he sees that UK is helping Zaluzhnyy create an political image:
So Zelenskyy lived long enough to become Sadam
And there is legit no valid argument to tell Ukraine can't do president election since it's an parliamentary country, not at war (still to this day didn't declared it), martial law only spaces about parliamentary election no president election. Zelenskyy could had easily fixed it by doing constitutional hearing and asking all the judges if he still legal, but I guess he is afraid.
So Trump main road bump will be make Zelenskyy legal or get rid of him.
And that problem will takes at least months
To end on funny note:

As Dictator Trump's time is approaching both ukros and ziggers try to position themselves in the best way possible for the upcoming peace deal. This is the reason why Russia has been pushing so strongly in Ukraine in the past days, capture as much territory so you can keep it when the conflict freezes. But you can't freeze the conflict if khohols are all over Kursk. So what you do? You take your korean buddies and kick them out! Or not, because ruskies are incompetent

The moment of the explosion (at 0:39) -which looks like controlled detonation- at the Ternivka dam near Kurakhove. After the explosion, water from the reservoir started filling the Vovcha river towards the villages of Bahatyr, Andriivka and Oleksiivka. According to local… pic.twitter.com/MYBFV8zgRA

47 brigade was located there. 37 dead and unknown number of dead.
47 are my fav brigade
It's because it has M-2s that the general staff in Kyiv keeps sending the 47th Mechanized Brigade into action. When a powerful Russian force launched an offensive along the Avdiivka-Pokrovsk axis in October, the generals ordered the 47th Mechanized Brigade to hurry from southern Ukraine to eastern Ukraine—and join the defense.
Four months later, Avdiivka fell as its ammunition-starved garrison retreated, partly under the cover of the M-2s' autocannons. The eastern front line briefly stabilized and, in April, the 47th Mechanized Brigade was finally preparing to depart the front line for its first unit-wide rest in nine months.
But then the Russians broke through Ukrainian defenses around the village of Ocheretyne, launching a steady westward march that would ultimately bring them to within six miles of Pokrovsk. The 47th Mechanized Brigade turned around and rejoined the fight around Ocheretyne—and kept fighting as the Russians advanced.
Five months later, the 47th Mechanized Brigade had lost most of its Assault Breachers, a third of its Abrams and another 20 or so of its Bradleys. Even with the hard work of a front-line repair battalion, turning wrenches to speed battered M-2s back into battle, the 47th Mechanized Brigade is apparently running low on fully operational Bradleys.
When western source dunk on khohol that hard, reality is a lot worse.
That should change as the brigade settles into its long-delayed break and extra M-2s arrive by ship, train and truck. How long the 47th Mechanized Brigade will get to rest and reset is hard to predict. The Russians are still advancing toward Pokrovsk and also making small gains north and south of the city.
They got zero break
They were send to hold pokrovsk directing then when they failed, Zelenskyy decided to send them to Kursk where they now getting bombed.
Even if they use all the M-2s they won't push it through in Kursk. Russian improved its drones and glide missiles by a lot and in Kursk Russia can use its allies. So even if khohols thinking that holding that territory until Trump becomes president it will give them something it won't. Russia has to many cards to play and funnies is agree to freeze the lines but let NK continue fighting.
So retrospective it will be a hilarious event. Khohols holding with all their elites 500 square km where 10k people lived in hope they use it to trade for something big but end up losing it anyway and losing those soldiers in an offence

Even that pro khohol Wikipedia that denied capture of bakhmut for 5 months, can't lie that Ukrainian loses are bigger in Kursk

In reality Russia has no reason to sign any peace it can just continue grind Ukrainian and every upcoming day it becomes easier to grind them. West has no real counter anymore other than boots on the ground that nobody supports. It told in 2022 if Russian uses nukes then Ukraine will get nato offensive weapons like tank, jets and long range missiles. Ukraine got it all now and proudly backpedals.
Archive how Biden flexed
while somewhere between 60,000 and 80,000 young Ukrainian service personnel have died
While Russian supposedly lose 800,000
Yet Russian don't have 10 times the Ukrainian population, ain't forcefully mobilising people and ain't short on men power as Ukraine.
Also Ukrainian loses were 35k in September 2022 so in worst case their loses in next 2 years were 45k
Western sanctions have failed completely to alter Russian policy. They have cemented a new alliance of autocracies. Their impact on western inflation, especially energy prices, has merely undermined western governments, helping topple those in Britain, Germany and now the US since the war began. As for the west's use of Ukraine as a proxy in a "war of deterrence" against Russia, success in such wars is provable only with the hindsight of history.
Sanctions were the biggest meme, I was telling since day one they won't work. Like what kind of economist are working there that were seriously thinking sanctions have long term effects. Absolutely majority of sanctions power comes on day 1 when they are announced because the coming months the economy will be adapting to sanctions situation and finding ways to combat it. But our genius especially EU economist were telling us oh no wait till summer wait till fall wait till winter
Ending the Ukraine war is a choice that lies with the US, without whose support Ukraine collapses. But the end must come with negotiation. This has to mean going back to the failed 2014 Minsk and 2022 Istanbul agreements.
Putin literally rejected those this summer
And nothing happened that weakened Russia since June 2024
There is no realistic alternative.
Russian are moving in zaphorozhyy.
Kyiv cannot recover Crimea.
No fricking way
Russia must accept some external guarantee of Ukraine's future security. Kyiv must accept that this stops short of Nato membership, while Russia must accept that Ukraine will develop some deal with the EU.
They probably forgot but after they realise in late 2022 early 2023 that Ukraine won't defeat Russia they started talking about that they need to help Ukraine to get in position of power so that Ukraine can dictate its term. That was also reason to launch epic spring counteroffensive that despite having zero loses by Ukrainian side, failed.
So Ukraine is clearly not in position of power, it's today weaker than in 2022. Yet they dictate the term that Russia must accept
The BBC's Moscow correspondent reported on Monday that Putin is on a high after last month's Brics summit in Kazan, attended by 36 states not aligned with the west. In view of Trump's call, the Russian leader might now be tempted to hold off from negotiations until his friend is in the White House.
Yet he suggest Biden to sign peace deal
Putin currently has Ukraine on the back foot and Nato in an uncertain mood. Joe Biden must be eager to end at least one of his wars before he goes. It might be possible to get a deal done before the chaos and uncertainty of the second Trump era begins.
Homo just in previous paragraphs told it's impossible

At this point America not joining Russia to fight Ukrainians will be a victory.
