That's why I can't watch Perun. Hard to get me to watch an hour long video.

I'm interested in that situation, and the far-reaching ramifications. So I watch. Often while I'm doing other stuff (like balancing the accounts in Quicken, or paying bills). It's not for everybody. His deep dives are very detailed, and well-sourced.

Probably the next best is reading articles in reputable papers. The worst is relying on a two-minute segment on any of the talking-head programs, which many people seem to do. Many of them are just propaganda tools. In the case of the poster I was replying to, one that wants us to say "it's hopeless, so capitulate to Russia now". It's smart to support Ukraine on so many levels, and you just don't get that depth from a talking-head segment.

Right now, Ukraine has taken one of our longest adversaries off the table. They have all but neutralized the Black Sea fleet (despite having no navy), they have forced Russia to empty their boneyards, the Russian economy is being impacted (which means the common Russian is starting to feel the pain, and eventually there will be internal strife within Russia), their army has lost a lot of its professional soldiers...and we didn't have to fire a shot.

We even saved a bit of money...it's not free to decommission and scrap outdated military hardware. For the cost of shipping it to them, we were able to send them our outdated (never to be used again) hardware. (Slightly oversimplified, but that's the basic idea.)

Which frees us up to focus on China, and their territorial expansion dreams. Or it would, if we had a competent administration in office.
