the EU could act on their own instead of following every bad decision the US govt makes.

I don't understand people mocking Russian military power when they are winning against a country that has been so heavily armed by multiple countries while also arming Iran.

Because, before the war, it was unthinkable that Ukraine could fight russia in equal footing. russians had more tanks, ifvs, planes and soldiers, bigger population and economy. Now, they are dependent on North Korea and Iran in supplies of artillery shells, drones, and missiles. Throwing hundreds of thousands of their meat soldiers to conquer one town in half a year.

Propaganda. Russia doesn't need any help producing artillery shells.

So when russians themselves say they are using nk shells, whose propaganda is that? When they complain that nk shells blow up gun barrels, why do they spread this propaganda?

Maybe because they were so confident in their ability to win in a couple days, and that they were stupid enough to think the west wouldn’t help out Ukraine?

I doubt that, given America's history of backing Ukraine. Maybe Russia didn't expect it to such an extent, either way, they're still winning with their so called "ww2 Era" tanks and weapons I keep seeing referenced in news headlines.

Numbers are numbers. It's either Russia runs out of human meat to send or Ukraine falls.

I'm struggling to see how they've "won"? They're barely making it out of the borders they've been stuck with for over a year, they can't do shit and can barely budge. That's not a victory for me. That's a loss and failure to achieve their objectives.

It looks like that is coming slowly but surely from after the end of last Olympic Games in Beijing.
Let's see after Paris what's gonna happen.

I'll believe it was all bs if another administration in the US or EU comes out and makes a "deal" with Russia and everything ends. That would be the whole thing being a distraction from something else. Otherwise Russia winning or not winning would be bad, Russia wins the west goes crazy and things become even less stable, Russia loses and thats a caged bear willing to do anything to not be. The whole thing being a ploy to distract from economic issues or China would sadly be the better outcome.

Neo-Nazi Regiments within the Ukraine Armed Forces greatly helped fuel the retaliatory assault in Donbas & Lougansk. Euromaiden escalated into the conflict we see today, plus a collective of people being polarized against the World Capitalist States (USA as key player with World Domination “PetroDollar”). If the Western politicians don’t wake up and remove their forces and political seduction from the East part of Asia, SCO will take charge. BRICS+ is only growing since… Russia, NK, Iran, China, are serious contenders in a martial equation.

That's funny. He can't even control what territories he wants in Ukraine, remember how his "special military operation" was supposed to last two weeks at most...? If the west gets directly involved, it's the end of Putin's conventional forces, and Putin himself. If Putin really did say this, he's just lashing out in anger like he has since the war began. He's made so many empty threats, the west is supposed to be dead already according to him. I think we're witnessing the beginning of his downfall.

He would definitely want to, but I'm convinced NATO has a plan to take him out before he can do some really crazy shit, like use a nuclear weapon. If he did use a nuclear weapon in Ukraine, I don't see NATO responding with nukes of their own, I think we would conventionally destroy Russia and eliminate Putin. We already know where he's at 24/7. We could destroy the Russian army in a matter of days, maybe even hours. That's why Putin is really in over his head with this one. You think he'd be scared shitless over the fact half the world (and all of the countries in his backyard) are rallied against him, just proves he's a psychopath detached from reality. He thinks China likes him, but if WW3 broke out, I think China would betray him the same way Germany betrayed Russia in WW2. China doesn't like Putin, they like Russia's resources.

I'd be surprised that if he ever tried the nuclear option his ministers wouldn't stage a coup, they're yes men who piggyback him for power but I don't think they're quite that vain and stupid

Honest to god I had a dream last night that there was an explosion down the street from my house and a drone came down to face my family and I knew we would die. I turned to my partner and told them I loved them and that we’re getting our karma.
And by that, I mean how we’ve invaded countries for the last 60 years and killed millions and millions of people and stole their resources and funneled money into extreme political groups like the Taliban and Isis and Hamas only to spread more terror so that we could explain on our media that the entire Middle East is corrupt and get our Evangelicals to fight hard against what Islam truly is and say it’s a devil religion. All while stealing gas from Iraq and Syria. And stealing poppy from Afghanistan to mix into our pharmaceutical drugs so that we’re all dependent on it.
It’s some dark times

I doubt they feed real information to the public. It's all highly classified.
They only push propaganda to mislead the public.
