you can not "give up" because you never fought at all!

Glad to know you opinion, my friend.

its not an "opinion". its a fact. the only one who is currently fighting is the Rossian volunteer military corps as part of the Ukrainian armed forces. and all this ostentatious feet stomping in front of the Russian consulate in Argentina or Germany is laughable and rather causes disgust.

Thank you for your comment, I hope this message has allowed you to express your mind sufficiently, it's good to let some stream off, then you're in the internet and your emotions go over the edge.

At this point, Ukraine's chances for the victory that they have been fighting for so desperately
rest entirely on the Western financial, diplomatic and military support,
which was never timely and sufficient, and has been flagging lately.

All those seemingly pointless protests help, in their own small way, to secure that support.
Those people can't just all show up at the recruitment centers in Kharkiv and Dnipro instead.

These are darkest years in the history of Ukraine as well as Russia.
You are not making them any brighter by attacking people
who are merely expressing their pain.

pfft..naive, you don’t know much about the mentality of Ukrainians. Putin still has more stupid cannon fodder who voluntarily go thinking that they can easily rob in Ukraine plus receive the so-called fee. idiots, there have already been so many cases of non-payment of this money and they still believe. We don’t just call them orcs.
Now the Russian fleet is beginning to thin out and this has been achieved by Ukrainian naval drones. Developments are underway on attack UAVs and FPV.
I also want to remind you how small Finland was able to resist the USSR, which in terms of industry, even for the 30s, was higher than Russia. What about Afghanistan?
One of the problems with prolonging the war is the appearance of imbeciles like Tucker Carlson who thought that "damn it would be a good idea to interview the potential reincarnation of Hitler!! The world needs to know both sides!" thereby causing the opinion that “not everything is so simple”.. are you sure?.. two years later, not everything is so simple? Tucker is just an attempt by the Kremlin and the Russians to stall for time in the hope that everyone will forget about it and giving the Russians the opportunity to regroup.

You must have meant to say, "We don't call them 'orcs' for nothing." ("ми недарма називаємо їх орками")

I don't disagree with anything you said here.

Tucker Carlson is an irresponsible idiot.

The Armed Forces of Ukraine are heroes,
and so are all of the country's civilians.
They have performed far above any
expectations, and have adapted
greatly to the modern warfare.

Russia's war machine is a paper tiger (or bear),
and their troops are horrendously demotivated,
undertrained and underequipped.

And still you have to face the fact that Ukraine is out of money,
and as heroic as they are, the Ukrainian military are fatigued,
and so are the people keeping the country running in cities
and in the fields.

The AFU can poke at the invaders, they can hold the line,
they can kill off the enemy's commanders
and grind down enemy armor and troops.

But they can't break through all those minefields,
the invaders' advantage in artillery and aviation,
they can't retake Enerhodar, Melitopol, Berdiansk, Sievierodonetsk, Lysychansk,
let alone Donetsk, Mariupol or Crimea.
Not without a massive increase in Western military aid, including trained personnel,
fighters jets, AA systems, missiles, tanks, and ammo, ammo, ammo.

So it's not going to be a quick victory, and the people of Ukraine are running low
on patience when it comes to daily shelling and air alarms and sky high prices.

Those ineffectual "good Russians" may yet help Ukraine in the long run.
When the times are tough, you get your allies where you can.

Russia is running out of money much faster. we need to speed up this process. their soldiers are much more scared than in the first year of the war because they see what the Ukrainian warriors are capable of. and again, as I said, you do not understand the Ukrainian mentality. Ukrainian warriors are tired but they have no other choice. otherwise, a fate worse than death. Civilians understand this too.
Any Russians are mediocrity. only fear and World humiliation can somehow change the situation. and for this, Ukrainian soldiers need to transfer the war to Russian territory, which is already beginning to happen. take for example the recent "nuclear explosion" near Izhevsk. We also need zero tolerance from our allies and their citizens. and now you are trying to promote “good Russians” again. THEY DO NOT EXIST! (except for volunteers in the Ukrainian army) The world somehow managed without Russians during the Soviet era. What happened now that you can’t erase them from any global discussion?
Don’t you think that a chain reaction could follow if Ukraine loses? I think after China starts fighting with Taiwan it will be much worse for the world. or that Russia will attack the Baltic States which are members of NATO. and then the general defense clause comes into force.

Okay, I don't understand the Ukrainian mentality.
You are right about everything, I'm sorry.

The AFU will take Moscow in three days,
even though they couldn't achieve
any of their objectives during the 2023 counteroffensive.

Every single Ukrainian is prepared to endlessly sacrifice themselves,
and have no other interests or desires, even though this whole war
is about Ukraine choosing the path of freedom and democracy.

Everyone in Russia is a subhuman orc,
including the eleven million Ukrainian relatives,
and everyone who got jailed, tortured and beaten to a bloody pulp at the protests.

The Russian volunteer units in the AFU
are numerous, powerful, and are super helpful and relevant.

Your making fun of grieving Russian furry artists
is the vanguard of Ukrainian psychological warfare.

Seriously, now – I want Ukraine to win,
and Ukraine should have won in 2022
with the aid of NATO that never came.

I want to see Putin tried and hanged,
to see Russia spend a hundred years
paying reparations to Ukraine
for what Russians have done.

And Ukraine will win, eventually, but I can't take anyone seriously
who fails to acknowledge that the country is in a deep crisis.
It was excusable to hear that bravado from Arestovych's fanboys
in the first months of the war, but not two years into it.

So please, just let peaceful Russian furries be.
Unless they're Putinist vatniks – you can troll those, if you want.

Slava Ukraini! Heroiam slava!

Thank you for drawing this. It captures the bleakness and bitterness of the the loss.
We will find, or forge, a new source of hope, but it was a vicious blow to everyone
who wants to salvage the country's future from all this radioactive dust.

A legacy of millions struggling against this evil will live on, and win out,
but one good man's, and one family's history was shattered.

Navalny was the same mudak as Putin. we called it "non-a-ham-sandwich". Any Rossian liberal turns into a Nazi when it comes to the Ukrainian question or the question of conquered lands. (I remind you of the part of Georgia that Rossian Nazis occupied in 2008). Rossians has no liberal future until they will not be re-educated and cured of the imperial mindset of superiority. What kind of exceptional culture do they dare to think about compared to others when a ceramic toilet for them is something like a miracle!

Who is going to re-educate them? You, personally?
The NATO don't care enough to get involved, including the U.S.
The AFU are doing all they can, and are barely pushing the "orcs" back.

Navalny may have been an asshole and a pain to deal with,
but he would never have started this war.

He would never have tried to infiltrate
and influence Ukrainian politicians
with money and planted agents.

You never get to choose between Good and Bad –
the choice is always between Somewhat Bad and Unacceptably Bad.

I didn't like him, but he was against Putin, and has turned thousands against Putin,
and that counts for something in my book.

Personally, I will do this too. Only Russians have slur for any nationality and ethnic group. people should punch the Russians in the face at the slightest manifestation of their imperialist ambitions. like it was with Austria and Germany last century.
oh, are you so sure of this? Finland is part of NATO, as are the Baltic countries, and Putin also considers these “historical” territories of Russia. in any case, he will come up with another historical fairy tale to justify his next invasion. how he spent 2 hours to Taker telling a complete historical nonsense that any historian could get a cringe.
Navalny called for the bombing of Georgia in 2008. and do you think that this man would not allow war? he would be even worse than Putin because he would probably not allow corruption in the Russian army.
"the choice is always between Somewhat Bad and Unacceptably Bad" hm..This expression is often mentioned in Sapkowski's The Witcher, but this is not the case. Here you can clearly see where is good and where is evil. and what will be the consequences if you choose evil.
one public person said the basic form: who attacked? Ukraine to Russia or Russia to Ukraine? whoever attacked is the one to blame for everything.

Navalny was a populist politician, and he said a lot of stupid and hateful things,
but he was never in power, or had any responsibility to act on his proclamations.

The only thing he was trying to do with all those outrageous statements is to cobble together
a political coalition to topple Putin. Once done, the new overhauled government would
just run the country normally, without doing any of Putin's imperialist hawking.

The ordinary people of any nation don't decide anything.
They don't have any meaningful political expressions,
or harbor any imperialist ambitions, and it wouldn't matter if they did.
Only assembled into political parties, state institutions, NGO's,
or financial unions they can influence politics, by promoting candidates
for everyone else to vote – in democracies, at least.
Even if everyone in the country wants to conquer the world,
the elites won't do it if it's not in their best interests,
and some groups within the elite groups always balance out others.

Russia is not a democracy. No one asks ordinary Russians if they want to go to war,
or if they want to oppress ethnic and sexual minorities, if they want anything at all –
Putin's pet legislators simply make it illegal to oppose war, or support the LGBTQ+
and force as many people into army as needed, and the state media
keeps up the propaganda pressure.

Russians are responsible for the war, and they will be held responsible
to an even greater degree, but they can't do anything about it now,
the same way Germans couldn't do anything against Hitler,
and Spaniards couldn't do anything about Franco,
and Ukrainians couldn't do anything about the Soviet occupation during the Cold War.
