That's one thing I don't get about these western or western-situated pro-Russian commentators (The Duran, Lira, Big Serge, MacGregor, etc.). They think Russia can do no wrong and everything is going according to plan. Ukraine is being destroyed and suffering massive casualties while Russia can't stop winning. The supposed Russian fuck-ups and Ukrainian gains are mere western propaganda (or part of a greater Russian strategy), and Russia has barely suffered any losses and is conducting every operation perfectly.
Yet if you listen to Russian ultranationalists such as Igor Girkin or Russian milbloggers or sometimes even Prigozhin, they'll consistently admit that the entire invasion has been a clusterfuck from the start, that the MoD has made a mess out of every other operation, and that there's pervasive command incompetence with thousands of troops lost in senseless and miscarried attacks. They're under no illusions that it's all going smooth as silk.
In short, these western Putin-loving Russiaboos are even more delusional than the zigger vatniks.
