Ah yes. Telling Ukraine that they should "stop fighting so people stop dieing" is being left of AOC and not Russian propaganda. We at ml are just peace absolutists, it's just a coincidence that our peace absolutism somehow involves just giving everything to Russia.

I'm curious how you envision Ukraine winning. From where I'm standing, I cannot see any remotely realistic pathway for them to regain any significant amount of territory. There may have been (probably was) a time when more/different weapons would have made a real difference, but at this point it's a matter of manpower. Do you think anyone is going to send troops?

Believe it or not, I don't think Russia is well-run, or a good place for workers. I don't like their foreign policy either. However, I also don't think it's useful or accurate to reduce them to "Putin bad". Of course he's bad, but that doesn't explain major Russian foreign policy anymore than "Trump bad" explains major US foreign policy. Not saying that nuance is an excuse, but you can't make any real analysis without it.
