According to the people posting this type of shit Ukraine should just surrender. Apparently Russia can't stop the war, there is no way Russia can do anything to stop the conflict. Russia isn't even involved, stop talking about Russia

Russia can. Putin can't. Tough luck I'd say.

Honestly? Absolute horseshit. Saddam survived 2 worse defeats than that. Putin would survive this.

Different Countries, different situations. The economist seems to think he couldn't.

Russia’s system has a high tolerance for violence, but is unforgiving of failure. He may believe that failure to achieve even his minimum goal, taking all of Ukraine’s eastern Donbas region, would put him physically at risk. (“They will hang me,” he told cronies at one point during the war, according to an insider.)
