>>1683645i just rly dont see where or how it couldve been worse given the circumstances. short of it spiraling out into
actual WWIII, of course. and/or it continuing uninterrupted for another 3-4yrs
which it def wouldve under bidup/kammyin terms of modern wars fought with modern militaries armed with modern equipment, this war was on a completely diff level than anything thats happened since ive been alive. and it rly is not close.
syrian civil war was a legendary shitshow with lik a dozen diff sides killing each other for over a decade. all while civvies were trapped directly in the middle of it. even that has nowhere near these numbers.
and in slavlands you can hardly even fight for lik a third of the year, cuz its cold af. didnt matter here tho, cuz drones. still hundreds on each side dying every week, even in the absolute doldrums of winter. you got 100s of thousands of kids coming back home as paraplegics, if they were even lucky enough to come back at all. the mass dismemberment is what rly sets it apart from other wars imo. its lik the IED casualties from iraq war, but multiplied by a gorillion
ill say it again, cuz it bears repeating: this war was absolutely fucking retarded
