People think the war will magically end if Ukraine roll over and stop fighting Russia.

That would be the end of the war wouldn't it?

Ukronazis have resurrected domino theory

the US has lost most of the wars they've engaged in for the past however many years and that doesn't seem to stop them from starting new ones so what would stop russia too? or are we to believe that ukraine won't just expel the russians to the 2022 borders (already a pipe dream) but they will also continue the march unto moscow and topple the russian government?

The Ukronazi/German (also Nazi) nightmare is that Russia will conquer Ukraine, somehow revive the USSR, then roll tankie tanks through central Europe.

As usual with the delusional nightmares of the far right, it's simultaneously the most not gonna happen thing that ever won't happen and also would be sick as hell if it did happen, which it won't.

Resurrecting the “is russia imperialist” struggle session

more a comment of "if we defeat this country they'll be too ashamed to start another war" when if you look at it globally that's never the case, they'll start a new one whenever they think they can win; i didn't mean to make it a comment on "will russia will invade the baltics" or w/e which i don't think they will, lmao

I see what you mean.

My thinking was, from Russia’s view this is primarily a defensive war to prevent NATO encirclement, it’s not an imperialist expansionist war. The thing that will prevent them from further conflicts is to stop trying to encircle them with NATO. Which we know won’t happen.

Whatever and however Ukraine ends up, Europe and America will continue to fund conflicts while pinning the blame entirely on Russia to further their own imperialist ambitions of dominating Russia, and Europe will happily fall in step.

You're missing a really important point. These people don't think the US and Russia can be compared, because Putin is a dictator who's worse than Hitler. So any kind of rationality goes out the window.

you're right 😔

Schrödinger's Russia, simultaneously a militarily underdeveloped rump state on the verge of being destroyed by Ukraine using a smattering of Western weapons, but also an unstoppable superpower that will just roll over the entirety of Western Europe if Ukraine falls.
