Quick question, who do you expect to win the war?

[–] GiorgioPerlasca@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

The United States of America has already won the war. The Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline lies idle, and EU countries have imposed extensive sanctions on Russia.

What American strategists feared was a Russia–Germany tandem leveraging Russian energy and German technology.

And now Germany suffers because it can't access Russian energy. Win/Win for the US.

I think that's a short-term victory, though. In the long run this will drive the EU away from the US.

Hahaha come on, we've all seen that cope before. Time to get real. Russia or Ukraine, who's your money on? Or will engaging with reality get you tarred for disloyalty? Are you afraid speaking it will make it true? I know you libs have your superstitions.
