If you're measuring territorial gains in a war of attrition, you're measuring the wrong thing.

@homerboy91 Using more dirt bikes is probably more just that the war has opened up a lot. A year ago, dirt bikes against entrenched Ukrainian positions would have been suicide. But the main Ukrainian lines have been breeched now in many places. Dirt bikes allow stealth and speed which tanks do not. Russian losses seem to have dropped off compared to a year ago while territorial gains are increasing. Over and over the Russians are getting Ukrainians into pockets they can only withdraw from under fire.

@jamesgrant3343 The way the Russians see it, the land they want and have taken is rightfully Russian land inhabited by Russian speaking ethnically Russian people. It's not just some random territorial conquest. Doesn't hurt that it's also very rich in minerals.

@sjs9698 Only the most propagandised gullible people believe the side with the armour, air, artillery and drone advantage is taking a "far higher casualty rate" or even higher at all. If you watch neutral mappers it's obvious the Ukrainians are struggling to firefight. Explain where all their hundreds of thousands of conscripts have disappeared to if you think their casualties are lower than Russia's.
