Silly panic-spreader. Every sane person knows that deep concerns are cheap and more than enough to repel Russians. In the worst case, it is possible to send a dozen written-off tanks from a garbage dump to Ukrainians. Their blood is even cheaper than deep concerns.

All is good.

Will Russia still have any men left by 2029?

Not funny. Russia has 5 times more population than Ukraine.

I didn't mean to be funny and I didn't want to come across as rude. I beg your pardon. Via media I perceived it like Russia sends their men into a meatgrinder (no food or rotten food, antique tanks, no weapons, importing fuel)and it is already struggling to find men that are suitable for military.

Propaganda at its worst. While Russians face a variety of logistical problems (including food, machinery, weapons and fuel), and those problems are actually intensifying, none of those problems are near critical (they have an interesting situation with fuel, but it is too early to make any conclusions). And in all cases (except for, maybe, food) Ukrainians have even bigger problems.

I see. Thank you for taking time to explain. It's also a good reminder for me regarding propaganda. Basically I am aware there is propaganda, but I have to be more critical.
