    They will.

    Russia is running on fumes and Ukraine is continuing to bolster up. Russia needs time to reup

      This has been the narrative since shortly after the war began. All that's happened since is Russia has slowly advanced.

          Pick one: Russia is running on fumes, or Russia should have won a year ago.

          The coherent opinion here is that it's a slow, grinding war and the side that has lost more and more territory as it continued will continue to do so.

          What's amazing to me is that this stuff is now openly reported in western media, and we still have people running around talking about Russia collapsing any day now. I suspect that a lot of the people who got really invested in project Ukraine stopped paying attention a while back, and they're just regurgitating the talking points they memorized two years ago.

      You stupid motherfuckers have been saying this shit since the war began without even the slightest bit of realization that Russia is an actual industrialized, manufacturing power, while the west has shipped almost all of its actual production to China and SEA

      Ukraine is literally constantly running out of shit despite the entirety of NATO dumping military supplies on them and they're the ones conscripting 40+ year old men but lol "Russia is running on fumes"

      "Why hasn't Russia won yet" because they're winning, stupid, they are winning a war of attrition, the fact that they're winning doesn't mean they can just magically teleport troops into Kiev and declare Game Over. This isn't some fucking paradox game, moron. The winning move is to keep grinding Ukraine into dust, not whatever dumbass shit you think Russia needs to be doing to win the war.

      I can't stress enough how fucking stupid you are if you think Ukraine's current conscription reality is in any way indicative of them "bolstering up"
