Comments by "" (@ericp1139) on "Battle for Bakhmut: At what cost do Russian forces advance? | DW News" video.
If it's so unimportant, then why did NATO spend 8 years building it up as a fortress? Just for fun?

@alganis3339 No 1 location is strategic enough to change the whole war. But it doesn't mean it's not a strategic location. The West is only trying to downplay its importance.

@jamesthomas4841 what is your position as a morally functioning person?

It's a war of artillery, which Russia has an overwhelming advantage, so they can encircle and take Bakhmut with relatively few losses, which is why they have taken so long. They don't charge in with human wave tactics like the AFU does, who have love over 200K men according to new reports.

@alganis3339 they’re part of the “collective west” and what exactly is their contribution? And where are the next defensive lines you speak of? Bakhmut is it. Anything behind it doesn’t come close in quality.

What's your term of victory? Russia's stated goal was to de-militarize Ukraine, which they did thanks to Zelensky sending endless men into the meatgrinder. Why stop an enemy when they are making a mistake?

Well, then Russia wins in every category.

@MovieGuy808 Most of those people fled the country and even more of them were in the areas annexed by Russia. Even if Ukraine marshalled every man, woman, and child, they don't come close to the force that Russia can mobilize.

@BingoPaletot How many have they verifiably lost? And where?

@ramadankadriu5336 NATO has been arming, building, and training Ukraine for the past 8 years. It's not really a secret dude. You can easily go look it up.

@kreb7 oh, the US is quite the professional at invading other countries for oil.

@michaeljohnston980 what are you talking about?

@jamesthomas4841 look at the news. The West is out of ammo.

@45641560456405640563 How is it coping? Russians have created a shooting gallery that Zelensky keeps sending lambs to the meatgrinder for months. How is this embarrassing for the Russians?

@arnovriends5873 How? It's already admitted that Russia has an overwhelming artillery advantage and Bakhmut is surrounded. How is it that Russians are dying?

@45641560456405640563 If everyone admits that Russia has the artillery advantage and that Bakhmut is surrounded, then how does it logically make sense that Russians are in the meatgrinder? Wheree are the videos and TIkToks of all these Wagners getting killed in human waves? How many Wagner guys are there for your math to check out? Sounds like you are the one suffering from copium?
