I get your point, and I apologise for being late-night brusque. I think this isn't really a Ukraine thing.

I think Ukraine has already won this war. The only way Putin was going to win was if his Blitzkrieg worked, Zelenskiy fled, and a puppet government was installed in the space of 72 hours. None of those things happened and every hour that this drags on is a bigger loss for Putin. Which scares the shit out of me, because when you lose a game that you were supposed to win, its awfully tempting to kick over the table, because when people are on their hands and knees picking up cards and dice they're not talking about how you got beaten.

Garry Kasparov just did a really good interview on Sam Harris's "Making Sense" podcast. Check it out.
