    Absolute strategic genius from Russia here. They achieved some pretty impressive goals

    • massive losses (as usual)
    • minor tactical gains which are currently being wiped out.

    And the big one

    • changing US policy to now allow Ukraine to strike Russian territory.

    I’m truly in awe.

      You see by making the US allow Ukraine to strike more targets they will use more munitions. It’s a war of attrition, there are clearly more potential targets than weapons that the west can build./s

        The scary thing is, I could imagine someone writing this text, but unironic…

          As I was writing it I was sure it was so outrageous that nobody could take it seriously, then after I read it I decided it needed a tag, because some people are that deranged.

      Don’t forget that they have also been repurposing much of their navy as their new immobile submarine fleet.
