Both sides are annoying, but I found Russia's performance to be mind baffling.

Given how corrupt Ukraine is, Putin could have just offered to buy out Zelenskyy and turn him into a pro-Russian puppet.

Instead, he launched an all out invasion that failed to topple the government, and now he's stuck in a stalemate. If he surrenders, then he loses whatever strongman status he built up. But if he continues the fight, then he's just depleting Russia's military inventory.

The whole war is like a Boomer's final cry for attention. Putin is at an age where he should have retired already, but he's using his last days to to make everyone miserable. Pathetic.
