I had an argument with a Russian shill who tried arguing Ukraine was losing because.
Quote: Ukraine has suffered higher causalities then America in WW2.
Note he provided no source for this and seems to want to overlook the fact Russia has too. So this isn't an argument.
Quote:Ukraine's running out of Ammo
Ukraine's has run low on ammo several times and still held out and Russia isn't exactly swimming in it. So this isn't an argument.
What decides whose winning is who has achieved it's objectives and Russia has failed to achieve any of it's objectives.

Huh, yeah, 405k. Thought that 1mio was sorta high. Reminds me to google more carefully after being awake for 15h and having a rather long working day.
Still does not change how absurd the original claim is.

Motivation matters. It may not, and often isn't, decisive, but it matters.
