    It’s crazy the extent to which western liberals exist in a bubble of unreality when it comes to who is winning the war

        Lol, you’ll believe any source, so long as it’s telling you what you want to hear. Remember three years ago, when you were all claiming that Russia was down to fighting with shovels? No, of course not, you memory holed that along with anything else that didn’t happen in the last two weeks.

        So wild that this is such a widespread phenomenon and yet Ukraine can’t seem to resist the onslaught of … unarmored and unarmed soldiers who eat nothing but tree bark and have to scavenge for their weapons and ammo.

        Ukraine must be in really bad shape if they can’t defend against that, huh?

          Who said they can’t resist it? How long has it been since they lost ground?

            https://www.russiamatters.org/news/russia-ukraine-war-report-card/russia-ukraine-war-report-card-nov-26-2025

            This report from the Harvard Kennedy school indicates that Russian forces gained 258 square miles of Ukrainian territory between end of Oct and Thanksgiving, with half of those gains in the week running up to Thanksgiving. I can’t find data for gains over the last 5 days, but the rate of Russian gains is increasing.

              Shocking that your Russian propaganda site favors the Russian military.

                According to this report from the Harvard Kennedy school

                Yeah man sounds super russian

                I think it’s so awesome how you guys have to give yourselves processing disorders to avoid parsing information that threatens your curated slava ukrani reality

                It’s literally Harvard

                The Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs is the hub of Harvard Kennedy School’s research, teaching, and training in international security and diplomacy, environment and natural resource issues, and science and technology policy.

                Like literally it’s the race-science white supremacist nazi-friendly ivy league school of the USA.

                The fact that you got triggered by their choice of domain name is on you, not on them.

                Holy shit.

                Holy fucking shit.

                Can you people get any more stupid?

                Literally calling Harvard Russian propaganda.

                I mean, my God. And you won’t even learn anything from this. You’ll just memory hole it. We were always at war with Eurasia.

        No, see its not like that. Russians are a hardy people, bullets just bounce off their bodies, no armor required. Gotta save all that armor for the backup that keeps getting tricked into fighting in Ukraine, like the NKoreans or the Africans that were tricked into coming over.
