Yes.
Ukraine is not going to win. I wish it could but it will not. It is trying to fight a war on charity and attrition. It has won some amazing victories, like sinking a Slava class cruiser, but they are being ground down. The sooner the Russians win, the sooner Ukrainians stop dying. So, “Go Russia.”
Another thing we have accept is that are likely no good guys in this war. Good people dying to protect their corrupt government just makes me sad.
If I was actually enthusiastic about the Russians it would be more like “GO RUSSIA!” which it is not. The Russians saw an existential threat and moved to deal with it. A lost this fault rests with us. We’ve been talking about “weakening Russia” and using Ukraine to do so. You keep poking a bear and it mauls you - what did you expect?
