    It seems like recognizing the Donbass region as separate republics was always going to be a stepping stone to attacking the rest of Ukraine.

        I know you are being sarcastic, but there were a handful of people across Lemmy insisting there was no invasion coming.

        They said that the military buildup didn’t happen, that it was just the latest in a history of false alarms, that it was just the west warmongering, etc. and basically spent the last week calling people crazy for suspecting that any attack was on the table.

        Oops, just wrong about an impending war where the evidence was screamingly obvious. No biggie.
