To be fair the Russians should have been more ruthless since day 1. This restraint is being seen as a sign of weakness. The headlines is changing, if you check CNN it's about how brutal the Russian attacks, no more about how Ukrainians are courageously fighting and 'stalling' the Russians anymore. Its sounds more like they are losing. If you think logistics is bad for the Russians who has open lines back to Russia and Belarus with factories running 24hrs, what do you think the situation is with Ukraine with most of their military industrial complex destroyed. Wars are won with intact industrial bases producing weapons and food. Russia can keep on sustaining the war, Ukraine can't unless US and NATO sends supplies.

A war does not end when the military is defeated. He then moves on to the next phase. Then the Russian army fights against Ukrainian civilians/partisans.
I believe the Russians have this in mind. They have KGB ready to do it.

Yes, unfortunately you have to expect the worst with the Russians.

I hope the reddit upvotes were worth it
Someone should do a kill-upvote ratio, only then can Redditors make an informed decision on whether the price was worth the blood. Maybe update guidance to say only 100+ upvotes per death are worth it.
The best weapons are reserved for other nations jumping in.
Meanwhile it’s just toying with Ukrainian and wait for their agreement to Russia terms.
With high gas prices the cost is paid by EU.
How can China be "isolated", pray tell? Year after year China's trade goes up, its FDI (both inbound and outbound) goes up, and its trade surplus goes up. If Westerners think they can live without China, they should burn every single thing they own and live in caves, because that's where they'll all be without China.
Isolating China is impossible. It is impossible in the sense that repulsive gravitation is impossible - it's just not how the Universe works.
By the way, Russia's campaign is the most important strategic event of this century. Although I support China refraining from direct involvement, it's very much China's fight.
