    Disclaimer: The article linked is from a single source with a single perspective.

    I remember when the Kyivpost or whomever posted casualties in excess of 1.1M, when that was known to be the entire active force strength of the Russian Army at the time. Gotta take some of this with a grain of salt, because it’s always printed with breathless “Victory over Russia is imminent!” implications, like the meme

    Nobody seems to want to believe this is the kind of fight that can drag on for another four years. Or another ten. Or another twenty.

      To be fair, the war looks exactly like the meme currently and has done so for a long time. Let’s hope russia collapses sooner rather than later.
