For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.
No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.
Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.
Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.
Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.

I belive so too. You know why? Because a war never ends with the weaker side bombing a military unit of the stronger. Lot of people say this would be like Pearl Harbor. Did Pearl Harbor win WW2 for the Japanese? Before you ask, Russia is nowhere as strong as we thought before the war, but if someone says Ukraine is stronger, they are clearly out of their minds.
For Ukraine to win Russia just needs to go home, Russia left Afghanistan who were way more ill equipped, and they will leave Ukraine.
The reason you have heard the tide is turning many times, is because it has happened continuously since the beginning. Russia attempted a blitz against Ukraine, but failed, and lost territories they gained already early on. They also lost Kherson, and now they are losing on the retracted fronts too, both in the east and south.
The Russian army has only lost and hasn't gained ground for a year now. The only place Russia gained a little bit, was Bakhmut, and that was Wagner and not the Russian army. Wagner is dysfunctional now, another loss for Russia due to internal disagreements.
