Oh, Max. It is no fun on this side of the WTF fence, but you were skeptical from the start. Welcome back, and I hope attacks from the censorship men's club aren't too brutal.
You gave the narrative the benefit of the doubt, but the holes in the plot were too big to ignore. Questioning the storyline shouldn't anger the people watching the war from afar, yet it elicits an irrational emotional response.
It scares me. Emotions are high, we aren't thinking, and everyone is an expert. No one seems to think about the future, and no matter the war's outcome, it isn't looking too good.
More than the majority of the world doesn't align with the West, and we don't see that we're not isolating Russia, we're isolating ourselves.
