So, I've decided to see how brutal the war has been the past few weeks by joining Ukrainian telegram channels and uh, yeah. There's some pretty disturbing things on them.

Only according to the decadent west. I'm sure TASS is spinning it that Ukraine is on its last legs and the glorious Soviet Arm - sorry Russian Army is only days away from victory.

I mean the Soviet Union spent the better part of a decade accomplishing nothing in Afghanistan but still managed to annihilate much of the country. It's all well and good to cheer for Ukrainians doing well against Russia but you also have to deal with the probability of Ukraine being decimated by this war in a way they won't be able to recover from. This is not going to end up being a feel good David vs. Goliath story.

Ukraine destroys Russian landing ship after state media revealed its location with propaganda footage: Huge fireball rises over port that had been taken by Putin's forces

Quote:
Ball of flames and smoke seen rising from Berdyansk, a Ukrainian port under the control of Russian forces.
Kyiv's navy claimed to have hit and destroyed the Orsk, a 370ft Alligator-class Russian landing ship.
If confirmed, it would be the largest vessel that Ukraine has struck and another embarrassing loss for Putin.
Russian state media revealed the ship's location just days earlier, showing it unloading armoured vehicles.

Why Can’t the West Admit That Ukraine is Winning? – The Atlantic

Quote:
The evidence that Ukraine is winning this war is abundant, if one only looks closely at the available data. The absence of Russian progress on the front lines is just half the picture, obscured though it is by maps showing big red blobs, which reflect not what the Russians control but the areas through which they have driven. The failure of almost all of Russia’s airborne assaults, its inability to destroy the Ukrainian air force and air-defense system, and the weeks-long paralysis of the 40-mile supply column north of Kyiv are suggestive. Russian losses are staggering—between 7,000 and 14,000 soldiers dead, depending on your source, which implies (using a low-end rule of thumb about the ratios of such things) a minimum of nearly 30,000 taken off the battlefield by wounds, capture, or disappearance. Such a total would represent at least 15 percent of the entire invading force, enough to render most units combat ineffective. And there is no reason to think that the rate of loss is abating—in fact, Western intelligence agencies are briefing unsustainable Russian casualty rates of a thousand a day. . . . If the Ukrainians continue to win, we might see more visible collapses of Russian units and perhaps mass surrenders and desertions. Unfortunately, the Russian military will also frantically double down on the one thing it does well—bombarding towns and killing civilians.
