Ukraine is providing resistance and has slowed Russian progress more than expected, so winning.

Who is winning? Always an interesting question.
When does the game end, and how are the points counted?
Did USA win in Vietnam?
Did Soviet Union win in Afghanistan?
Did USA win in Afghanistan?
We may not know for quite a long time the answers to this ..

Yes! See the signed peace treaty.
An excellent article from Glenn Greenwald: War Propaganda About Ukraine Becoming More Militaristic, Authoritarian, and Reckless
About the $hit$show of propaganda:
"Every useful or pleasing claim about the war, no matter how unverified or subsequently debunked, rapidly spreads, while dissenters are vilified as traitors or Kremlin agents."
"When one is coerced — through emotional tactics and societal inventive — to adhere only to one script, nothing that is outside of that script can be entertained. And that is all by design."
And the risks of the economic attack:
"The mammoth instability and risks that would be created by collapsing the Russian economy and/or forcing Putin from power, leaving the world's largest or second-largest nuclear stockpile to a very uncertain fate;"

putin is scared of covid1984 thatswhy he sits far away
, maybe he knows more than we all ..before covid 1984 started he was this guy
Why? Why give in to them if you are giving them a constant bloody nose? I have to wonder if this was Putin's plan all along? He didn't want all of Ukraine, just parts of it.
And you can capture a city all day long...that's a long ways away from HOLDING it.

We’re screwed
MI6 Chief Faces Backlash For Saying Ukraine War Is About LGBT Rights
www.zerohedge.com
The head of MI6, who includes his preferred pronouns in his Twitter bio, faced backlash for suggesting that a large part of the war in Ukraine was about “LGBT+ rights.”
Yes, really.
Richard Moore (he/him), leader of Britain’s Secret Intelligence Service, made the comments in a Twitter thread.
“With the tragedy and destruction unfolding so distressingly in Ukraine, we should remember the values and hard won freedoms that distinguish us from Putin, none more than LGBT+ rights. So let’s resume our series of tweets to mark #LGBTHM2022,” he wrote.
Other Twitter users reacted with a mixture of confusion and derision.
“My only hope is this is some sort of top secret coded message. Otherwise we’re all fucked,” said one.
“Yes, the values of Western civilization didn’t exist until the creation of LGBTQIA2S+ rights in the 1960s. You virtue signalling idiot. The only hard won freedom I want is from woke ideologues like you,” added another.
“We are at the brink of World War 3 and all you can do is virtue signal over what people do with their private parts. Absolute joke,” remarked another.

It is something to think about for sure. It makes you wonder why there is so much narrative painting Russia as a evil. And it seems quite a bit less negative narrative towards other countries that seem much much worse.

It's hard no to see Putin as evil, or at least a thuggish dictator, given that he is invading a country that was not threatening him, or Russia, in any way.
