While I am actually reassured by this that some US Military leaders are not just jarheads, the solution, unfortunately, is not with the US being the world policeman or rest of the world but with the Russian People to recognise the lies being told, shake off the nationalistic crap being spouted and Remove Putin.

It could also be solved by Ukranian people doing a similar thing. The eastern parts of Ukraine are hardly even Ukraine anyway. Borders are malleable. Just do a bit of surrender to end the war.

  What does that even mean. There are tons of ethically Russian people -- at least four that I know of in my extended social circle, one of whom has already died -- proudly claim Ukrainian nationality (if not ethnicity) and were among the first to take up arms and volunteer to fight against Russia. If borders are malleable so too are ethnicity and nationality malleable.

  Borders are malleable is an incredibly naive, if not malicious thing to say. Kenyan ambassador explained it really well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofijY6M-OA8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofijY6M-OA8

  There is a lot of surrender already happening in those part already. Mostly by homeless drunk bums in russian military uniforms living in woodland encampments. https://twitter.com/666_mancer/status/1574754437335318529 https://twitter.com/666_mancer/status/1574754437335318529

Wont happen. Current protests in russia are not against the war. Those protests are about mobilizing "the wrong people". Me, my son, my employees, smart young people from wealthy big cities, how dare you! Beloved leader said it wouldnt happen, said it was limited, no students, no essential workers, those bad bad men surrounding our great leader are clearly traitors or incompetent! Russians are ok with mobilization and war as long as its somebody else thrown into the meat grinder and all they hear about are successes on TV, or at the very least HD footage of some Mall being blown up by supersonic cruise missile.
