Shush, don’t you know this is a psy-op war? It’s like a house of cards. It looks nice until it all comes tumbling down. Sorry to say there’s no Ukraine offensive in the cards.
Get help. You’re wasting time supporting Putin.
I'll use myself as an example: I despise Zelenskyyyy and I despise Hitler V Putin. When hostilities end I'd love to see both of them hunted down by their peoples and hung.
