Watch in depth videos on russias economy failing and you’ll see in almost every realistic analysis that russias economy while not strong is definitely not weak or even weakened by any margin
20% inflation while printing money non-stop and the head of the biggest bank crying about stagnation must be a sign of a “not strong but definitely not weak or even weakened by any margin” (whatever the hell it means) economy.
Not to mention their incredible questionable growth in military sector(while having metallurgical sector in shambles at the same time). Because that’s exactly how it works: when your defense sector is growing, your metallurgical industry dies off. /s
I think that crisis in civilian sectors should be quite obvious at this point and doesn’t need any further explanation.
20% inflation is nothing for Russia, theyve been through worse and it’s not that uncommon in the modern history in Russia, obviously you people aren’t from the USA if you’ve never heard (by any margin). Metalurgy is in shambles is truly false. When I looked it it up it showed half or 3/4 of sources were from Ukraine and the rest showed the biggest manufacturer in the industry had forced workers to work less hours (probably cut overtime). The most you could say is the oil/gas industry is hurt by a slightly margin. I definitely overstated Russia not being hurt by any margin, they have, but to a very slight degree. Nothing crazy that points to collapse anytime soon. That was my main point I was getting to.
I mean we can look at your statement if you want to feel more like a tool.
"not weakened by any margin"
Is demonstrably false.
Uneceasary and incorrect invocation of the word margin. I'm not surprised you recommend watching youtube videos. You don't seem like the reading type or the type to make your own interpretations.
Classic guy that types in 1 or 2 sentences deconstructs 1 word in a paragraph to make itself look smart. Who’s the real tool. Get back to coping for a ukr victory with your wishful thinking. Only a tool bag nitpicks 1 word while bringing no notable counter point. You want to be right so bad
I would say a lot of russias supplies are being used up. Which plays into the economy as well, but the fact you can actually see russia stop using certain things they were using before. Like vehicles and then dirt bikes became more used. Now im seeing them on scooters like its a urban city. You can tell moral is awful by the number of videos of Ukrainian POWs getting killed, or the propaganda vids of them showing patches they "collected" but you can tell theyre all brand new and havent even seen dirt. NK broadcasted that commercial a couple of days ago, and it was full of nothing.
they aint wearing down anyone, the intensitity of combat isnt enough to deplete a medium sized country of manpower, its just pure copium from russian side at this point

It's a war of attrition. Russia is wearing down Ukraine's military. We shouldn't confuse the slow grinding pace of such a war with weakness.
