    i guess the many lessons one is a good start and broad edit: again someone is cycling through alt accounts and downvoting everything i’ve posted… lol, let’s hope its a bot and someone isn’t wasting their actual time to totally own me with downvotes.

      Sorry to hear you’re being targeted like that. Not cool. On the bright side, the points are made up and don’t matter here.

      I’ve have read through the essay and I think that the article lends itself to confusion but help me out. Kyiv does want a military resolution but only to rule its dissenting territories, which is arguably a sovereign right when you have your insecure neighbor fueling dissidents, right? This is what was giving me trouble before, because Zelenskyy has been actively calling for peace plans for a few years now. You’re almost suggesting that he wants to continue fighting Russia on behalf of the UN. That’s one hell of a noble sacrifice that’s not quite in their best interest. If anything, the author suggests Zelenskyy has been played like a fiddle. Or am I missing something?

      E: Nevertheless, thanks for the link. It was very interesting and I took my time to go through it. I’m tempted to read the other essays when I have more time.
