Some people want to make it seem like it's useless to help Ukraine - and to reap political and financial rewards from cooperation with Ruscists. And they seed dissatisfaction and frustration in others.

Well, even here in Ukraine many people are frustrated with the heavy toll of war. But there's a solid ground for hope.

Heroyam slava! Glory to the heroes!

Consolidated sanctions could have prevented the war. And they should have started even earlier, when Russia occupied a part of Georgia. Or when Russia killed 300.000 people in Chechnya.

Indeed, they are full of revenge, as their Telegram channels show. Since they lack any big arms, they will probably engage in traditional Russian terrorism, and try to kill Pootin - as their predecessors assassinated Russian emperors. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terrorism_in_Russia

How could it not succumb to rampant corruption? Since russia remains an empire, the "Foucault's boomerang" predilects it to oppressive highly centralised power system. In such a system, intelligent opposition is dangerous, and nobody wants true separation of powers. Without the separation of powers, corruption is rampant.

Oh, thank you for correcting. This war is a tectonic political shift and it requires a lot of patience and persistence.

Seems like memory plays tricks with you, since you ascribe Ruscist propaganda line to a "Ukrainian official".

Oh, thank you ☺️ I highly agree with you.

Cool, thank you. I will try that. I previously tried to mention it, without much success. But right now I have figured out how to mention it properly - for some reason, the semicolon in the bot's name must be omitted.

Good bot. How can I call you?
