I'm referring to their atrocious incompetence, mediocre supply lines, exceptionally backwards technology, failure to immediately secure absolute control over the sky, rather shockingly poorly trained soldiers, and the general chaos that seems to indicate the command structure has no idea what it's doing.
That Russia would win ultimately is no surprise at all, at least for the invasion stage of things. They have such overwhelming numbers that it should be an inescapable outcome. If they occupy Ukraine with that force, it'll be a disaster for both Russia and the Ukrainian civilian population.

- x86_64Ubuntu 5y agoI'm glad it's not just me sitting with my ignorance and making assumptions. I know the West was going to pump hero stories and "freedom fighter" narratives. But other than that, we haven't seen anything else. If this were the US fighting a similarly overmatched opponent, we would see maps showing how far we've advanced, fronts were there was fighting and such. But we get none of that now, we have no idea of if the Russian army is still stuck at the border, or currently changing the drapes in the Ukranian Oval Office.
- ComputerGuru 5y agoI’m not a military strategist but I have to think that if you see such gaping holes in their military approach then maybe you have some wrong assumptions about their endgame, i.e. we should be smart enough to know that we’re not smarter than the guys that do this for a living.
