Ah, the fickle winds of Western media. One day Zelensky is Churchill in a green hoodie, the next he’s the Mad King of Kyiv.

    Nowhere did I suggest that the government narrative is the truth. In fact, I explicitly pointed out that the government changes the narrative to facilitate the policy it wants to pursue. The reason peace is being discussed is because republicans wants to pivot to Asia. Had democrats won, they would’ve doubled down on keeping the war going. I very much agree that partitioning of Ukraine after the war is a very likely scenario.

      That’s not the reason peace is being discussed. Ukraine has lost the war. It’s not in the USA’s interest to support a losing cause, especially when it’s nothing to do with defence of the homeland. It’s the old Cold War warriors in Washington who still think Russia is Soviet. Can’t wait for those dinosaurs to die off! The world will be safer without them. The US doesn’t have a chance against China, and I’m speaking as a soldier with experience in these things. The only reason why China is a so-called enemy is that we can’t compete with them economically/commercially, so they must be destroyed. It’s sad how we think.
