Current Events > why dont people really care about Ukraine?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Theyre selfish and dont understand what it means for the future of the world, and us. They dont see the severe consequences in letting Russia take Ukraine.

If, prior to Russias annexation of Crimea, if you showed me a blank map, and asked me to locate Ukraine, I would have known it boarders Russias West coast, but I cannot guarantee I would have picked the right one.

Equipment advantage? Technologically? Nope. They don't have an answer to HIMARS, for example. Advantage in numbers? Maybe. For now.
I mean, this is not not often brought up, but Ukraine eliminating over a dozen Russian artillery pieces per day for the past few months has enabled Ukraine to establish artillery parity, if not superiority, in some sectors of the front.

Like if Russia had these grand advantages that they're trying to peddle this "special military operation" would have been over before any aid or sanctions hit.

So either these "advantages" are overblown or Russia is incompetent to be losing despite them.

It's both overblown and Russia incompetence.

There hasn't been much in major news regarding the war tbh and the major news outlets barely report on it anymore. Which is somewhat worrisome to me.

Doesn't help that similar things frankly are happening everywhere in the world and Ukraine isn't particularly more important then the rest to most citizen's.
