Like what the fuck, I don't even know what to say about a title like this. Also

That’s where I think Vladimir Putin miscalculated when he invaded Ukraine last year: He underappreciated Ukrainian grit and resilience. I suspect some Americans make the same mistake. Month after month, Ukrainians have lost buildings, heat, electricity, lives — yet they are ready to keep sacrificing, and there is a society-wide reverence for those who have given so much.

Fucking ghouls. "Ready to keep sacrificing" eh? I just hope the West stops funneling pointless resources into this war, and it ends soon.

Listen, I think they need to protect themselves from Joe Biden as much as you do, but waiting until Joe rings the bell isn't going to work. Ukraine needs to give up on the West ever doing anything in their interest and negotiate a cease-fire directly with Russia.

After asking for cluster ammunitions it's not up for debate if Ukrainian leadership is any considerate of Ukrainian lives.

Their use of depleted Uranium, blowing up dams and shelling nuclear plants did not show that already?
