I saw some euroid memes about wishing Putin shooting himself in a bunker. I wonder what percentage believe that the US caused Hitler’s suicide

Wasn't there a chart floating around showing how most of the west now believes that the US did all the work in WW2?

I think the french believed that the US did all the work after 9/11 happened lol

A smarter Zelensky would have send the most rabid of neo-Nazi units into that future meat grinder to make it a bit safer for him to sue for a cessation of hostilities with Russia.

They don't take orders from him though.

Maybe Zelensky doesn't have the political power to give direct orders but maybe he still has enough sway to heavily encourage something like this to happen.

Downside is, I don't think its even a little bit an actual intentional strategy by Zelensky and it wouldn't surprise me if it just prolongs the open warfare between Russia and Ukraine.

We'll probably see something like this happen every time there starts being stories in the news about possible sit down talks to end the war that aren't predicated on ridiculous demands like "Russia dissolves itself as a country" (or something equally silly) to push back the peace talks a few months. At least until Ukraine physically stops having enough people to push into the meat grinder.

When non-boots say "the mission" it's almost always some lanyard warrior going jagoff
