Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

I'm going to go with 'survival' survival for Putin.

Those two are the same for him at this point

The Russian wartime economy would, and will, utterly collapse.

[–] FarceOfWill@infosec.pub 4 points 1 day ago

I agree with some commentators cleverer than me, the current state of the war economy is so extreme that it'll be crippled by both continued war and also by peace.

The longer it goes on the worse the resolution will be

That is when the role of the US really comes in. Putin eyes the nuclear button and Americans have to go "sit down, you're not doing anything". But Trump will go "let's talk".
