A place to discuss pro-conservative stuff

  1. Be excellent to each other. Civility, No Racism, No Bigotry, No Slurs, No calls to violences, No namecalling, All that good stuff, follow lemm.ee's rules, follow the rules of your instance, etc.

  2. We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.

A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

This has been a hot topic for conservatives. I fully support Ukraine, but at some point, they have to say they can't push Russia out. Ukraine does not have the manpower or firepower to dislodge Russia. They've tried and failed. Western support is starting to go down because they have not made progress.

I don't know the solution, but right now, it's just a war of attrition, and Ukraine loses in that scenario. I suspect this will be a big topic of discussion during the presidential debates.

According to Milley; they’re almost the same. That’s not good for Ukraine as Russia has a much larger population

Not sure you understand the issue. It means Ukraine is going to run out of ammo and won’t be able to fight back

People have been saying that since the war started. Yawn.

After years of democrats cutting defense.

NATO isn't solely controlled by democrats. You are severely lacking in understanding of how NATO works.

Maybe you have kept up on th me need. Ukraine is rationing ammo because they are low. That’s a new development.

NATO isn’t sending the bulk of the supplies. The United States is. Most of nato had already run low on artillery rounds. That’s America doing the heavy lifting which has been cut over years of democrats saying we spend to much of defense.
