Yep, aka "Strelkov," used to be Comrade Putin's best friend forever until he found out he was expendable and on a Putincide list.

I think the goals are quite clear. Die for Putin. It’s the Russian way of war.

Winners figure out how to win and then go to war while losers go to war and then try to win.

Many wars have been started with even no clear understanding about what victory they wanted to achieve.

It’s probably close to 50/50 now in russia

50% against putin’s war

and 50% for it

Sounds like sour grapes with this guy who was demoted by Putin. Whatever reserves they have are poorly trained and ill equipped, they seem to be depending on mercenaries, NATO special ops, and volunteers from Poland trading one uniform for another. The destroyed infrastructure will result in a humanitarian crisis in the coming months. And the money spigot will begin to taper off when Republicans take the House, none of which bodes well for Ukraine.

[Bruce Campbells Chin]

He makes some good points. Ukrainians troops have much more clear objectives than do Russian troops, and that does significantly impact morale.
