I, however, find some of the observations to be plausible.

The timing of the invasion, mere hours after the end of the Winter Olympics, shows that Putin spoke with Xi about his invasion plans. It would be unthinkable for Putin to launch this gambit without securing Chinese economic backing.

Therefore, this was no emotional outburst. It had been in the planning for weeks. Not saying invasion was inevitable, it could have been one of the contingencies, but it was definitely in the plans.

Over on Reddit. They seem convinced that China is turning against Russia. Either way China been saying the same things since the start and a lot of them gloss over the article that US debt been frozen but Yuan can still be used. Guess it’s beneficial to China lol.

Not all emotional outbursts are spontaneous! The preliminary acts of: procuring thousands of rounds of ammo, a bunch of guns, computing ballistic trajectories, booking the ideal geo-spatially situated location, that all preceded some nuts shooting of 600 some folks in Vegas, all took weeks of planning, at least!

If Russia could take Odessa and Mariupol, Russian troops would move north. Kyiv would be surrounded from all fronts. Ukrainian's troops in the eastern and northeast front would be encircled. If that happened, Ukrainians can either try to break through the encirclement or dig in waiting for the fight of annihilation.

Reddit is on full astroturf mode. Every frontpage post is about how Ukraine is winning or about some meaningless "token of support" like putting ukrainian flags on some stupid videogame.

And, if only they had those Wing Loon drones, it would be soo much easier!
