Hey, quick question: What happened when the US congress tripped over its own dick as it is wont to do and turned off the bullet spigot for 8-10 months? Did Ukraine stop fighting and say "Oh you're right you can have all our land in the east and please accept our apologies if you want to take some more go right ahead?" I feel like they must have done that, since the US is the one insisting that they have to shoot back even though they really don't want to (and why would anyone?). But I can't remember it happening.

even though they really don't want

Correct, majority of civilians don't want to keep fighting a pointless and unwinnable conflict. It is mostly forced conscription by their Nazi government that the US props up to continue feeding them into the meat grinder.

Also the people in the east have a right to self determination and if they would rather be under Putin's thumb than the thumb of the Azov aligned Ukrainian government that is their prerogative and it is showing your western chauvinism that you don't clearly give a fuck about them.

Sounds good. What happened when they turned off the bullet spigot? I feel like maybe you meant to respond to someone else's message here, since you missed the question I asked in mine.

when they turned off the bullet spigot?

They didn't and I did not.

Sounds good. How many bullets did Ukraine get between October 2023 and April 2024?
