Like what the fuck, I don't even know what to say about a title like this. Also

That’s where I think Vladimir Putin miscalculated when he invaded Ukraine last year: He underappreciated Ukrainian grit and resilience. I suspect some Americans make the same mistake. Month after month, Ukrainians have lost buildings, heat, electricity, lives — yet they are ready to keep sacrificing, and there is a society-wide reverence for those who have given so much.

Fucking ghouls. "Ready to keep sacrificing" eh? I just hope the West stops funneling pointless resources into this war, and it ends soon.

Do they have a chance of winning? No. The counteroffensive has shown that decisively. So they should cut their losses and stop the bloodshed. Anything else is just pointless murder.
