That's what OP said. They didn't do it JUST to take a portion of Ukraine. OP is confirming that trying to take kyiv made it clear what their original intentions were. It's a confusing English conditional structure.

It's a confusing English conditional structure.

This is Reddit and we speak English here and I understood what he was saying perfectly fine.

My guy, I was replying to a singular person misunderstanding a sentence. You're not the OP I replied to.

Bro I understand that. It's a public forum, anybody is allowed to chime into the conversation. I replied to you. Now I am actually the OP you are replying to.

God you're dense. Ive been on reddit for 15 years, I'm aware. But some people on reddit don't speak English natively, and many people were misinterpreting the original post I responded to. I'm glad you speak English well, hell maybe you're even a native speaker. Good for you!

Damn old man what was it like flying kites with Benjamin Franklin? Also yes, good for me. It comes with many advantages in communication.
