That link they've put in for "A massive amount of technical assistance from China" goes to an article with a list of podcast episode that say literally nothing about China.
Western “journalism” does this all the time, like a high school kid citing random books in their essay filled to the brim with bullshit they made up at 11:59pm knowing nobody would ever check
Same with NATOpedia stacking up the []s and when you click on them it redirects to siegheil1488.com/russianatrocities
lol the quality of western reporting on full display
The most massive cope possible. In fact the West has given so much technical assistance to Ukraine they are by all rights legal parties to the war…
Meanwhile China has done nothing at all, and the West lost anyways.
Can I get my $60,000,000,000 back then?
I hope so. It's about damn time, tbh.
And to preemptively respond to all the libs who might see this comment and proceed to shit a brick: Russia "winning" this was inevitable from the very beginning. The sooner it is finished, the sooner this particular meat grinder, which was started, exacerbated, and perpetuated by fascists and their NATO backers, can finally be ground to a halt.
Edit: I guess I should have put this in the lemmy.ml worldnews crosspost, since I don't think libs tend to stumble into the hexbear news comm much anymore.
You fool, by predicting the Ukrainian collapse you have extended the war by another year
🤣
I love how it's "Putin's" offensive, as if he's just playing HOI4 or something and making all the decisions, instead of you know, the Russian military command making the military decisions.
The narrative will never end. NATO will never consider Russia a censitary democracy in public, as that would undermine their propaganda. There is no autocracy in Russia, much less a dictactorship. But if they consider a censitary liberal democracy a autocracy, was 1914 france or 1950s america one of them, or were black people not humans for them?
What is a censitary democracy?
lol yeah they way they talk about it is so unhinged
The sooner the better. It's sickening to think of how many have died so far.
More dead nazis is always a good thing
More dead random conscripts is not a good thing
Wait are there any new advances or something?
Yeah, Russia's been taking positions on daily basis since Avdeevka collapse. Ukraine doesn't really have any defensive lines to fall back to.
it is essential if the likes of China, Iran and North Korea are also to be made to understand that their antagonistic attitude towards the West will meet with the same resolute response as Russia’s unprovoked invasion of Ukraine.
We in the global south know more than well enough the satanic levels of violence the west is willing to inflict on anyone who does not bow to it (and even those who do, just at a latter date).

To encourage community members to contribute commentary and for others to thoughtfully engage with this material.
To support healthy and good faith discussion as comrades, sharpening our analytical skills and helping one another better understand geopolitics.
We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.
