Russia's invasion of Ukraine revealed two truths: Russia is so corrupt its supposed "near peer" forces are a shambles. But NATO and the West in general are so complacent and under-prepared that there's neither the political will nor the military capacity to stand up to Russia. The result is like watching two drunks fighting: one is flailing and cursing, the other is a morbidly obese halfwit who just stands there unable to raise his fists because he's too busy gawping at TikToks on his smartphone. This is humanity at its finest, right...?
