I think judging by the posts on this instance, a lot of people here didn’t think that Russia would take military action against Ukraine. I was one of those people. Hell, even yesterday I wasn’t expecting to wake up to this. But I think it’s safe to say that that position was incorrect.
I’ve read opinions from communists on both sides now that it’s happened of whether the military action was justified or not, but it seems that few are reflecting on the fact that we were wrong about the prediction that there was not going to be military action. Personally, I’m very surprised that this happened. I’d be curious to hear your thoughts.
It felt very unlikely and I still maintain that this was an unlikely outcome. We can speculate on what changed between before the start of the conflict and now, but all we can observe now is the outcomes. Reasonable speculation certainly should arise of any conflict on this scale due to MSM, as many others have said here. Ultimately now though speculation is near useless and it is more important to focus on the potential outcomes of this conflict.
