    I still can't believe it. The only way it makes sense is if Putin thought he was going to end it in a week and was surprised when he didn't, and now I'm personally convinced that all postwar military strategy is basically worthless in the face of modern man-portable anti-tank and anti-air weaponry.

        I mean I'd say it's been a bit of a drawn out quagmire so far, shit's been brutal and I'm still surprised Russia has had the stomach to deal with it

        Even if Putin had occupied most of Ukraine I feel like it still would have been a quagmire just more of a CIA counterinsurgency quagmire (this was actually my day 1 prediction for how things would go)

      when Zelensky started talking about acquiring nuclear weapons in the week before the invasion I think that kinda sealed it
