    Having an actual view over what events are currently happening in the world, and being interested in war and the history of wars is not licking boots. It’s also not licking boots to recognize that bad things happen to good people and the bad guys sometimes win, especially if they have the manpower and resource advantage.

    Rejecting facts you don’t like is something the right does. It also doesn’t change the reality of the situation. It is useful only for Ad hominem attacks when you want to deny what the other person is saying.

    Avdiivka is the key to holding the Donbas region, and specifically Donetsk.

    Explain to me how a country that used up most of its fighting age men wins? The average age of a soldier in Ukraine is in the high 40’s. Who do you think will manage and use the weapons we supply?

    But, I’m guessing your knowledge of the war is simply “Russia Bad, Ukraine Win!” and any actual material analysis of the war is just propaganda. Do yourself a favor. Read up on the war, look at a fucking map, and think critically on the facts and come up with your own opinions rather than just sucking yours from someone elses tit.

      Because mobilization age is 27, dumbass.

      “Ukraine, having lost 100,000 casualties out of a population of 38 million, is now out of men!!!”

      Keep licking those boots.
