There are. The thing is, the moment one country in the path of the bastards in the first panel falls, or capitulates to their demands, another becomes a target, and more die.
It's like Chamberlain compromising on letting German expansionism play out. No matter what happens, every road leads to death, but resistance delays the rise of another Axis.
There's no answer to the problem that avoids people dying in droves, as sad as it is. Even if others directly intervene.

u/ItsVexion 5h ago edited 2h ago
I don't think anyone thinks otherwise. The question is who dies. And if I were one to make the decision, I'd make the choice that protects the lives of the victims, often at the expense of the aggressor.
Many Americans lament our role in actively aiding Russia during this pivotal time. Ukraine will still prevail; that is a certainty now. But it could have been done with fewer deaths if we at least maintained supply of aerial defense and intelligence sharing, the latter of which was used as early warning for Russia's daily terrorism.

u/ty_xy 4h ago
I am a huge Ukraine supporter, but to say Ukraine victory is a certainty is vastly underestimating the Russian threat. They are mobilizing 120000 men right now. Yes, that is another 120000 dead Russians, but also more dead Ukrainians. And Ukraine cannot afford those kinds of deaths.
27
u/ItsVexion 3h ago
120,000 men is approximately 3-4 months of manpower, based on Russia's monthly casualty rate over the past year. This is also over a period of time that has seen a net loss of controlled territory for Russia. This is also during a period that has seen the steady erosion of their economic ability, with little in the way of a solid lifeline. Russia's defeat is a certainty.
I did not say it was going to be easy or pleasant. Ukraine, however, is doing extraordinarily well with comparably less manpower.

Ukraine is causing Russia larger casualties as a percentage of the population than they are losing themselves. They've been able to afford it for 5 years, they can afford it for 5 more if their morale holds, which it seems to be doing just fine.

They conduct semi-annual conscriptions for mandatory military service, just like many countries. And although they’ve changed some laws now to make it easier, those are not sent to war zones.
This is not the same as for example the 300,000 that were conscripted in 2022 specifically for Ukraine.
7
u/UranusIsPissy 2h ago edited 2h ago
I read somewhere that a lot of the conscripts told that they won't be sent to the front get sent there anyway. That might sound bad for Ukraine, but it's a big blow to the Russian army's already dismal morale, and they're barely getting trained.
3
u/cb_24 2h ago
Some do sign contracts and get sent over. It’s mostly foreigners that are duped into signing contracts for supposedly support jobs away from the front but get sent in with minimal training.
The semi-annual conscription is a lot more politically sensitive for the Russian rulers and they try to avoid deploying them, especially for those from the major cities. Although they have found themselves in combat and as prisoners of war, such as during the Kursk offensive in 2024 when Russia lost territory for the first time since world war 2 and needed NK help to dislodge Ukrainian forces.

u/UranusIsPissy 59m ago
I'm surprised Poo Tin would care about it being politically sensitive. He was as popular as a fart in a phone box just before the war started back up again, and IDK how a pointless shitshow of an invasion could make him more popular, even if people are more afraid to admit to disliking him.
•
u/cb_24 52m ago
It’s much more than simple popularity here. It’s the very survival of his regime at stake, as most Russians, especially the urban elite, have no interest in dying in Ukraine. Even in 2022, while 300,000 were mobilized, over 700,000 fled Russia.
This is why they have been setting conditions to minimize any societal destabilization in the case of another mobilization, such as banning apps like telegram, which exposed many issues through open sources during the last one and caused widespread backlash.

Starlink, the datalink and communication system that Ukraine relies on to coordinate certain parts of its drone strike campaign against Russian Oil and Gas Facilities, as well as to provide early warning for drone and ballistic missile attacks, is having its access for the Ukrainian Army throttled because Ukraine won’t immediately capitulate to demands they weren’t told about. Civilians in Ukraine are being denied more time to evacuate to underground shelters during missile attacks that strike Ukrainian city’s in the middle of the night. Drones that are in the middle of transiting over Russia are periodically loosening connection(some have probably been lost) on their way to their targets, this is costing Ukraine civilian lives and military resources for no good reason.

u/Blacksad9999 2h ago edited 2h ago
It's incredibly naive to think Musk wasn't involved on some level. He has absolutely zero qualms about meddling in other countries affairs, and has a direct line to Trump and Hegseth.
He also tweeted "Zelensky has gone too far" right before they had their satellites throttled without warning.
1
u/YoursTrulyKindly 2h ago
He was involved in the sense that Trump has to cater to different interests, and the plutocrats like Thiel and Musk who got him into power are part of that.
But what possible reason would Musk have to somehow spend political capital against Ukraine? How does that benefit him? It seems far fetched and unlikely.
Ultimately Trump is flip flopping all over and does what he wants, but Zelensky better do as he says. That is the story here. A vassal does not piss on the boots of his master.
And everybody wants to blame Trump or Musk here. But Biden had the same relationship of master and vassal before. And Zelensky back then did what was asked of him, and didn't make a peace deal.

I think you're doing peiple a disservice. Putin had all of this planned. I remember some documentaries from the early 2010s, when bots and their networks were more easily to identify, which showed that you can track most of extreme conservative comments are coming from russian bot accounts. In hindsight I think the whole queer debate was a test. Ever since the regular internet became way more political and identity based, which is a good thing but without regulations very easily to exploit and Russia did gain that insight from the test.
Propaganda that imitates a whole society is way harder to deflect than a poster with an old guy who says he wants you. If anyone is stupid it is politics which continues to give propaganda a fertile ground. You don't even need a Trump for it. Here in Germany our gouvernement is doing the same but they are selling our future in a way that is not so plainly stupid as Trumps.

In the times since WWII I would debate there has never been a conflict between nations that has been more clear cut right vs wrong. We have a clear aggressor state attacking a smaller state for no other reason than land / expansion / resources. It should be very very clear which country to support in this conflict, and every day spent NOT supporting Ukraine is another step towards the complete and total breakdown of a rules based society.
Edit: fine Iraq-Kuwait 1990 but in that circumstances the rules-based society worked, the allied assault lasted 100hrs or so as well.

I remember this comment from 2 years ago about how he did need to do it for reasons and now that it's going Putin can't really stop it anymore
Edit: nvm link doesn't work for some reason, here's the copied comment from u/ChuckNorrisKickFlip :
There was no coup, and there's zero evidence linking the us to anything involved with Maidan. None. Zero. Nula
2014: Yanukovych (Ukraine's president) said he'd move closer to the west (association agreement) in trade. This also meant visa free travel
Putin gives Yanukovych 15 billion dollars. And also stops around 25% of trade from leaving ukraine in an attempt to apply pressure and stop the association agreement from passing.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_embargo_of_Ukrainian_goods#2014?wprov=sfla1
Yanukovych "changes his mind* about the Association agreement due to the embargo and fifteen billion dollar payout. He tells the EU they need to give him another ten billion to consider going back to his previous plans to institute the trade deal (association agreement) . They don't give him the money.
Ukrainian People, pissed off the guy they elected changed course on his main political stance he won on get mad. Protest. These protests begin directly after their president Yanukovych announces the change. Thus signals to them. That their country is run by Putin, and they are not autonomous. So the protests begin.
Yanukovychs response? He makes protesting illegal via executive order. Shortly thereafter he begins shooting protesters.
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/30/magazine/ukraine-protest-video.html
Protesters continue, the whole situation streisand effects, and the shootings at the protesters dint have the intended outcome. They don't scare anyone away. Instead the deaths propel the protests and even more come out. Women, children, everyone is in the streets. Becsuse Ukranians are based AF.
Meanwhile, the wheels of a Democratic process are still turning inside Parliament. Due to the shootings, as well as executive overreach the Ukranian Parliament votes unanimously to remove Yanukovych from power. The vote is 328-0.
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-26304842
A new election is held. Poroschenko runs on closer ties to EU. He wins with more than 40 points more than the second place finisher. Tymoshenko. (remember Ukrainians don't want to be a Russian vsssal state and Yanukovych ran on the same platform as Poroschenko)
Ukraine begins to move closer to the west. The association agreement is implemented.
So. Russia invades. And starts the war in the East.
Zelensky is then elected with 72% of the vote.
So. What's this really about? It's pretty straightforward geopolitical goals for Putin. All the nato stuff is a lie. There is no fear of Nato. It's the wmds of their war. Just nonsense to sell to the public in order to justify an invasion.
So. Russia wants tech minerals, grain, and and can't afford Ukrainian gas fields to be an alternate source to Europe. He also needs an alternate trade route to Iran. He invades and holds these areas specifically with the resources he wants. That's where we're at now.
In terms of the reasons Putin wants Ukraine. Here you go.
Ukraine makes a lot of grain. Russia wants this.
https://www.dw.com/en/five-facts-on-grain-and-the-war-in-ukraine/a-62601467
Ukraine (more importantly Crimea) is integral to Russias desire for a trade route to Iran.
https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/2022-russia-iran-trade-corridor/
Ukraine is sitting on an alternate supply of natural gas to Europe.
https://hir.harvard.edu/ukraine-energy-reserves/
Ukraine has a shit load (estimated 13 trillion dollars worth) of tech minerals
https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2022/08/10/ukraine-russia-energy-mineral-wealth/
These are located in the exact same areas they Russians are currently fighting for and occupying.
So why can't Putin win now? Why is this taking forever?
Here's the problem. Putin annexed E Ukraine too early. He did so becsuse he threatened to use nuclear weapons if Russias was threatened. So... By calling the Eastern Oblasts Russia. He was defending Russia from Ukraine, which to him, warrants the use of nuclear weapons. But. He obviously never used them. And the war continued. And currently he controls around 50% of these oblasts.
Now. What's that got to do with ending this? Well, Putin has stated multiple times that negotiations will not begin until Ukraine cedes all of the east to him. That's the starting point. So for negotiations to begin, Ukraine has to give up twice as much. And if Ukraine gives up twice as much, what are the negotiations even about? Probably demilitarization and a promise not to join nato. Maybe end the association agreement as well (which allows visa free travel to Europe). So there is no motivation for Ukraine to negotiate becsuse they're just in a situation where they have to give up more, and get nothing in return. Here's a simple question that no Putin supporter can answer. What is Russia offering to end the war? What's their compromise?
And on top of that. If Putin moves back from these borders that he already claims delineate Russia. Hell be seen as weak and his political power (and likely life) are over.
Tldr : Putin is stuck because he can't win all of the east but he can't walk back the borders he already redrew.

What are you talking about? You know what happened in the 21st century long before Russia and Ukraine? USA and NATO invading Iraq and Afghanistan, resulting in a 20 year long occupation and deaths of 400,000 civilians. Was that the rules based society you’re talking about? Who broke it down, the West doing those illegal invasions, or Russia doing the same thing 20 years later?
How is Iraq, Afghanistan, or the current illegal unprovoked invasion of Iran any less clear cut “right vs wrong” than Russia-Ukraine?
