WFoL,
So you think it wasn't predictable?
Nothing is predictable. The "fog of war" is real.

News reports all across the Western media are all saying that Russia's advance toward Kyiv is "slower than expected." Of course I take that with a grain of salt.

But even if this is a manufactured narrative, it's one that I'd gladly accept, if it means taking some of the wind out of Putin's sails.

If it turns out to be factually true, great. Anything that gives Putin a bloody nose is fine by me.

If it turns out to be false, oh well. Ukraine was never expected to last long against a full frontal assault from a much bigger and more modern military.

Kind of like this video which has gone viral. "Russian warship, GO FUCK YOURSELF." It's most likely true, but even if it isn't, how the fuck is Putin going to prove it's a fake?



Maybe Putin should have created some "fake videos" of his own. You know, like a video showing Ukrainians welcoming their "liberators" with open arms.
