Yes, I agree that they should drop their pride and buy what they need for the war.

Seems like all the information updates can be classified into two categories:
1. Ukrainians inflicting various losses upon the Russians.
2. Russians advancing on every front.
I think it's pretty clear what the aim is. Russians are trying to win the war on the ground, Ukrainians are trying to win the war in the minds of Westerners.

A month?
Dude, this war is already over, basically.
What's happening right now is just mopping up the remains and consolidation.
There's a reason why the US offered to extract the Ukrainian president.
They can see what's coming.

I realize that, but the cost of war & sanctions is going to take a heavy toll on the Russian economy. The quality of life of the average Russian is going to go down.
Because nearly every OSINT account you find is sympathetic to Ukraine.
They're more likely to post pure Ukrainian propaganda without being critical.
The circlejerk energy you find on Twitter and Reddit is real.
I would give Russia at least 3 more days before making any conclusions. If by the end of day 7 they capture kiev, kharkiv and mariupol the war is over. If they don't, that's when I'll start to get worried. The west will be emboldened and drag this into a long conflict.
That's a separate issue entirely.
The geostrategic consequences of this war should have a separate thread.
Yes, they have progress quite fast, especially in the Southern front. Even in Kiev, people forget that it is a city of 3 million and it is day 4. It took a day or two to just get there. It will take a few more days to finish the job, and that is quite amazing. Part of the reason was Kiev did not prepare until well after the invasion.
@FairAndUnbiased bro regarding the 3rd, I think Russia did the right thing, If They able to take control of Ukraine, they needed those vital infrastructure functioning, less expense and less hostility among the locals. Like I posted before in Taiwan scenario why destroy something you own, The American strategy are good at destruction BUT they're suck at reconstruction and look what happen to them at Iraq. Instead of being welcome they were hated for destroying a country and making their live miserable. a quote from J.R.R Tolkien “All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
