  1. They are litterly fighting to defend their own nation and people, kid.

  2. You seem state that with the delusional idea that Russia can sustain a long war or has the capability to somehow win this war. It has neither.

  3. Cope.

  4.  @giovanniamadardjo247  It is not abnormal to ban parties that support an enemy while your nation is at war.

  5. How is Russia winning and how is Ukraine fascist?

  6. What?

  7. Cope harder.

  8. Empathy? Human rights?

  9. Proof it.

  10. Yet you don't mention a single argument to supprot your position.

  11. I completely disagree with your last notes. Russia currently lacks the strength to break through the Ukrainian defences in a significant way and does not possess the finacial resources to win a war of attrition. This is made clear by the Institute of War studies and their coverage of the current crisis. Liveuamap helps make this issue equally clear. I would love to know what claims about the Maidan revolution you think are inaccurate. Your subscription to the JoeRogan podcast also highlights that you seem to not always care about the factual nature of information.

  12. The same happened during the Iran-Iraq war when both nations carried out terror strikes against each others cities. It only rallied support instead of shattering morale.

  13. Cope.

  14.  @random-mx5ug  So North Vietnam lost the Vietnam war because they never captured any American cities? You seem to have not even the slightest grasp of logistics or the economic resourced needed to sustain a war.

  15. Stop it with your gune excuse. Those guns were distributed by the government to form militias and it was not about private ownership at all. "Citizens are permitted to own non-fully automatic rifles and shotguns as long as they are stored properly when not in use. Handguns are illegal except for target shooting, those who hold concealed carry permits, and handguns awarded for service." From the wiki about the gun laws in Ukraine.

  16.  @sharknado623  Yes, but they have been limiting the power of the judicial branch while expanding that of the executive branch.

  17.  @gledatelj1979  Racist.

  18. Nope.

  19. Russia has proven to be unable to force a breakthrough. Consequently it cannot end the war in Ukraine with a victory, and the Ukrainian have no intention of letting the Russians have Eastern and Suuthern Ukraine.

  20. I am surry he didn't include Kremlin propaganda, but this is a geopolitical analysis. Climate change reports also do not care for the public comments from conspiracy nuts.

  21. It was indeed the escelation by King George III that led to the civil war/war of independence.

  22. Iraq never won.

  23.  @random-mx5ug  Losing Urkaine as a geopolitical partner and being itnernationally isolated hurts Russia. Russia's decision to invade Crimea and support an uprising in the Donabss in 2014 led to these events. Russia shot itself in the foot.

  24. While I get what you mean, this channel refers to victory from a military and long term geopolitical perspective.

  25. Dictator?

  26. Putin started this war, not the bankers kid.

  27. What?

  28. Long answer: Russian can't win the war quickly, nor can it sustain a long and protracted war. Ukraine has already won, Russia just does not see it yet. Russia has the watches, but Ukraine has the time.

  29. A phyrric victory is a victory.

  30. No.

  31. He is a political outsider who ran on an anticorruption campaign beat out the previous president who is a billionaire. Elaborate your statement.

  32. Slava Ukraine.

  33. Dude, look at the actual situation on the ground. Luveuamap and the Institute for the Study of War are a good start

  34. An opinion without a basis in reality. Try elaborating next time.

  35. Even the ethnic Russians of Kharkiv have turned against Russia and Putin.

  36. yes.

  37. A scale? You have poor grammar.

  38. Revisionism? You went from baseless accusations to historical falsification real quick. Explain.

  39. No.

  41. A nice little buzzword with no meaning in this context. You project your rather pretentious American culture unto others. If all left wing political supporters are in an echo chamber and you are not in that chamber, aren't you in a right wing echo chamber? After all, there are no "leftists" in your chamber. Congratulations, you played yourself. The Polish government is rightwing yet supprots Ukraine. Are you just going to skip that in your simplistic black-white worldview?

  42. Considering the level of partisanship in the US, I can safely say alot of people do not trust the government depending on which administration is sitting in the Oval Office.

  43. Disgusting. You consider the death of tens of thousands a a boring joke?

  44. All evidence to the contrary.

  45. Cope harder.

  46. And when will the fighting stop? It won't under those conditions.

  47. Ukraine is a sovereign nation.

  48. Ukraine did sign unto the Minsk accords. What are you talking about? How did Ukraien supposedly lose before the war started? Why should I believe a person subscribed to Russian propaganda channels?

  49. Ukraine has the right of self determination and Russia has no say in whether Ukraine wants to join NATO.

  50. Patrick Lancaster is quite litterly a Putin apolagist. Why should I lsiten to one man over the academic community? Why should I place any value in the opinion of someone like you who has no credentials in this field?
