Hello,

We all know war is being a desastre for ukraine, and that it will lead to a major crisis after the end, which can end just with russia attaining its objectives... but what I ask is different than that...

  • how the popular masses are living it ?
  • what are its spectatives about the war and its government (and not just government, but ruling class and elites)
  • what's the status of the correlation of forces, classes struggle, organisation(s) of the proletariat.

In fact, I think this is crucial to see if there is a possibility (even tiny) of solving the inevitable crisis post-defeat with a revolutionary change...

Yeah, I know I am a dreamer... but we need to always have revolution in mind :)

This is a question for ukranians lurking around (I know there are some)... but anyone who knows something, please comment !

It sucks for all directly affected, on the territory and families of all who died both sides of the fence, that aspect is absolutely horrible and undeniable. But on a international chess game perspective there are some things to consider. Like US loosing this battle is a big blow to their grandstanding as the one who does stuff and is never wrong. For that they are doubling down on anti Russia propaganda to try to gather some European support to save face there, but for what it seems Ukraine is finished and there is no more saving that. What they might do is either strike back in a move of despair or instigate the fight somewhere else (possibly Taiwan) to try to sweep the defeat under the rug and pretend it never happens.

I think the side of Putin is more reasonable in this war but I have no love for the figure, he has plenty of skeletons in his closet. Just wanted to that stated.

So TLDR it sucks but sometimes it sucks for the US too, which is nice for the world
