Just you wait, wornldews has told me that the wholesome chungus Azov battalion troops will reach and conquer Moscow any day now

The reaction from people who've only been guzzling mainstream western propaganda for the past two years is going to be absolutely wild when it's no longer possible to pretend Ukraine is winning.

They're already abandoning Ukraine so they can send more weapons to Isreal for the purpose of enacting a genocide. Zeleskyy has been out panhandling, making sure people don't forget he's still alive.

I think it'll be very underwhelming honestly. If I've learned anything about libs in the last 6 months, it's how little they actually care about anything, and will gladly do a complete 180 of their attitude and act like they always held that position.

I mean it's entirely possible they just forget about Ukraine and move on to cheering for a war with Iran. However, I do think that Russia winning and dictating terms will be an affront to their core identity which is fundamentally rooted in chauvinism. All of a sudden they're going to have to grapple with the fact that it is the west that's being dictated terms by force as opposed to the other way around.

That's assuming the press actually tells them that though. I think it'll probably just end up with the headlines using words like "Belligerent" or "Unreasonable" to describe Russia's terms and the average lib will just assume the "moral victory" stance they always do when they lose.

[-] yogthos@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 1 week ago

That is a very likely scenario. The one thing libs have demonstrated is that they're utterly unable to learn from experience.
