No, I mean saying Russia can just surrender now doesn't actually mean anything. That's like saying oil barons can just stop any time. It isn't a real solution.
"Aggressor packs up and goes home" is about the most meaningful end this three ~~day~~ year operation could have.
Why would Russia stop now, when it’s near certain that their stated demands will be met either millitarily or via peace concessions?
Ends justify the means, got it.
No, and again, that doesn't apply in any way. Russia isn't going to surrender when they are winning the war, it isn't a real option. Either Ukraine and Russia successfully broker a peace deal, or Russia continues advancing at an increasingly rapid pace. That's the reality of the situation, the war is increasingly unpopular in Ukraine and corruption from the Banderites in charge is causing erosion of support.
There isn't a realistic way for Ukraine to win millitarily.
Might makes right. Got it.
We aren't discussing right, or any kind of moralism, but what actually exists in the real world and what is going to happen.
I actually disagree with most MLs on the war, but you're deliberately not listening to what is trying to be explained to you.
You aren't being told "Russia isn't gonna stop and that's a good thing" you're being told "Russia isn't gonna stop because it doesn't make any sense for them to as they've almost gotten what they wanted."
Shitlib's circuits have burnt out
This kind of refusal to engage with reality is why liberals are getting their lunch eaten by fascists in the west and communists in the east. You do not have a serious worldview.
That's not what they said and you know it, stop being a dishonest troll
