I can think of no proxy war that has played out like this. The scale of Russian incompetence is difficult to understand.

- AnimalMuppet 5y agoTo me, it kind of feels like the coup attempt against Gorbachev, where a bunch of the coup leaders were drunk, and the whole thing quickly fell apart. It's the same level of incompetence.
- dirtyid 5y agoLearn some history. This is about par for Russian performance for large scale wars for past 100s of years. They're a huge land power with chronically underfunded military where corruption cause initial stumbling but they tend to hammer through and win.
- oneoff786 5y agoI’m familiar with Russia’s military past. This war is notably different in character imo.
