an important caveat about what happened with Russia, an enormous amount of their military was only on paper, because it had either been lied about, or stuff was stolen, from various positions on the pecking order.
It should also be noted that after a shitshow of year 1 and being unable to fight a combined arms mechanized war, they switched back to the brute force and massive casualty strategy, and for all intents and purposes, It worked, all Ukraine can do is try to hold territory and kill soldiers, but realistically due to Western cowardice and ratfuckery, the door closed a long time ago on Ukraine being able to dislodge Russia from its stolen territory.
We cant even agree on what truth vs lies is, or what either of them mean. a lie is okay as long as its convenient ,truth must be hidden if it hurts us
In a world where truth is now fluid, we need to learn some Russian, just one word, a loanword “Vranyo” Literally it mean lies. but its used in the context “Im lying, you know Im lying, I know that you know Im lying, but you aren’t going to do shit, and I dont care even if you did”

Vranyo has infected western society Its how government operates, its how gangsters operate. convenientley, a lot of the governments and gangsters are now one in the same.
