    It costs more to build in the US than it does in Russia, because the US has a lack of industrialization. Capital utilization for the war economy can’t revive the last century of declining industrialization. Russia is steadily achieving their goals, and when the dust settles liberals will look back and act like they always said Ukraine should’ve conceded rather than drag out their defeat for no gain whatsoever.

        No, lol. Russia is steadily advancing and achieving its goals. Calling me a Nazi because I can recognize that basic reality, as well as that when the war wraps up it will have been better for everyone, Ukraine included, had they conceded at the first few months when they had the opportunity, is absurd.

        You don’t have arguments, just assertions and ad hominem.

          Reading through this chain, you have done nothing but assert and reassert the hollowed industry line with zero proof towards anything you’re saying. Honestly, I’m legit wondering if you’re just a bot.

            I’m not a bot, people have done nothing but reassert their own claims ad nauseum to me as well with no proof. What specifically do you want evidence for? I’ve provided evidence in this thread when asked for.

              Truthfully, I don’t care about the argument enough to want your proof. I’m not taking some random internet person’s word on complex economic and industrial war time matters. Nor do I care that much because regardless of who is actually right, there is nothing I could do with the information that would change anything. It’s pointless to me. What’s going to happen will happen, and I’m not at liberty to change it. I’m just pointing out that you have done exactly what you accused the other party of doing. TBF, you’re both shitty debaters, and I’m sure you’d both flunk a debate class as is.

                  We don’t want war. We abhor war. However, we don’t agree with a nation just walking into another nation and claiming it and people saying they should just give it up.

                  If I walked in to your house and killed your wife and said this room is mine now and if you want peace you will accept it, would you?

                  Russia has committed genocide against Ukraine time and time again and this is their one chance of standing up to the big bully. It’s also a wake up call for the rest of Europe while they get their industry back together and stopping relying on America.

                    The Donbass region is pro-Russian, and Kiev has been at war with that region for a decade since the Euromaidan coup of 2014 ousted the president they supported. I don’t know why liberals love metaphors and analogies, nor why they’re always terrible, it’s closer to a couple getting into a domestic fight with the husband physically abusing the wife, and the wife calling her neighbor for help.

                    There’s no genocide in Ukraine. It’s a war, not a genocide. If you want to see genocide, look at what Israel is doing in Palestine.

                    Ukraine is slowly losing, it’s not a wakeup call, it’s a way for NATO countries to get very rich and damage Russia at the expense of Ukraine.
