Sometimes I look at Facebook and can’t understand what kind of problem some people have with thinking: is it fantastically magical or just short memory?
But this doesn’t stop them from expertly reasoning about the purpose/goals/results of our deep strikes on Russian territory, as well as the reasons for their “responses.”
To them, it’s clear: to prevent the current centers with outlets from burning, don’t hit Wildberries. Poor business, but for what… Stop it.
The business is poor, undoubtedly. At the same time, it has always been like that.
I remember who first started hitting the warehouses.
It was late February-early March 2022, when black thick smoke from burning warehouses beneath Kyiv stood in the sky for weeks. Many didn’t see it because they had flown to various safe territories, but the sight was terrible. There was no one to extinguish it.
I remember hits on Epicenters, shopping centers, where among others, Lilia Ivanivna Nikiforova died.
All this was happening continuously for 4 years in a row.
I remember how the Russians were the first to hit a passenger train in Irpin on March 3.
Hospitals. Maternity wards. Buses. Random passersby.
There is NOTHING they haven’t hit first. Unmotivated. Unprovoked. Absolutely with impunity.
CHP. Gas distribution. Oil workers. Gas stations.
For gas stations and oil, I have a special “love,” because they were destroying them back in 2022, when I had to ride a bike around Kyiv to save diesel for the bus with humanitarian aid we were taking to the East.
Why did they do it? Because a) they can, b) they want to, c) we couldn’t do anything to them.
Well, alright, say our enlightened Facebook tacticians-strategists. We just hit BGTU. That’s Belgorod University, where they developed drones. But why? It’s a university! Now they’ll hit our universities and institutes!
Oh. Damn it.
Sumy University constantly suffers from hits. Kharkiv University was hit very hard.
Back in 2022, the Russians destroyed many of our scientific institutions – from astronomical and museum to seriously technological. They even hit the neutron source. And why did they destroy the Institute of Biochemistry of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine with several reactive rockets on July 2, 2026? What kind of unique Institute is it, and how did the Russians harm it – read in Kunsht.
What am I getting at?
We couldn’t hit them before, so everything seemed logical – we endure, wipe away. Now we’ve got the opportunity to hit – the howling started that something will hit us now.
Seriously? It’s some twisted logic.
The victim is being raped. But the victim’s resistance, they say, will lead to even more rape.
It’s a circus.
There is no secret fundamental reason why the Russians are targeting our warehouses or gas stations.
They want to destroy everything we have — the military, utilities, economy, grain — that’s the whole reason.
Yes, our actions can change the order of targets in this lineup. But the fundamental reasons for the strikes should not be considered from the perspective of “it’s because we hit back somewhere.”
They want to kill us all.
Erase our statehood.
Destroy the economy.
Capture and re-educate the children.
If they could (and they are increasing their capabilities), they would strike everywhere all the time.
Therefore, our choice is very narrow:
– to strike high-priority military targets (this helps us in the short term);
– to hit everything that feeds the war machine — from fuel to factories (this provides relief in the medium term);
– to deal maximum blows to the economy. Because only economic collapse can trigger processes that will make them leave us alone.
Yes, they will continue to hit us. There will be casualties and destruction.
However, we cannot avoid this path because the only alternative is capitulation.
There are also a few things we could fix internally.
Such as stopping the unnecessary re-laying of sidewalks and granite curbs, building useless bridges, and installing lawns (Kyiv is completely out of its mind) and instead building shelters for the absolutely defenseless citizens against ballistic missiles.
Coming up with a way for the unusually-minded parents to steer their children toward studying something practical like physics instead of management (the application imbalance this year exceeds 100 times. Where will our anti-aircraft missiles come from?).
Removing incompetent politicians from education who dream of canceling standardized math tests (again, where will our ballistics come from).
Finally start working on our own nuclear weapons without economic whining (financially, we’ve already lost several arsenals) and liberal concessions about “nuclear weapons won’t change anything.”
Mobilizing those who should serve to replace those at the front for 12-4 years.
Sending the pro-Russian faction to stables, shutting down draft-dodging bloggers, taking Facebook away from Dubinsky…
There are actually thousands of points and tasks.
But above all — hitting Russia.
Taking the fight to its territory. Destroying everything without any pangs of conscience (of course, within the Geneva Conventions).
We have the right to do so.
Burn, brothers. Burn.
Have a quiet night and stay in shelters.
They came for everything.
They simply miscalculated the intensity of resistance and did not expect the western wind to blow into our arsenals and pockets this way. But they are adapting, ready to endure hardships and deprivations—gasoline, gas, energy in Belgorods and Rostovs.
“The packages aren’t arriving? Back in the ’90s, I used to walk to the pond with buckets, only my breasts were bouncing,” millionaire Margo will say on TV and go to eat a beaver tail.
The goal is morale; for them, it’s a legitimate military target. They will increase the salvo mass, the number of air explosions and cluster munitions, targeting warehouses, water, heat, and steam, household chemical and packaging companies, markets, and rail stations. To provoke a population exodus, weaken civil society and volunteers, deprive the army of donations and family support.
Their strategy is the war of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth against the Tsardom of Moscow. A war of attrition lasting decades. We bite off a piece, grind the forefield to dust, squeeze out the population, kiss the cross, sign an “eternal peace”. Then a respite, build up strength—and continue until the conditional Smolensk becomes Russian.
The exodus and demoralization of the population for them is a military victory. If you’ve lost your job in a foreign city with three cats—they’re happy. If you maxed out your credit card while the conditional “Moyo” is rising from its knees and pays less—they’re happy.
Even a few interceptors on a target do not give a 100% guarantee—the channel can be overloaded, blinded by interference and decoys, a board and launcher can be lost due to technical failure and maintenance cycles. Or you can get hit by cluster munitions—a very unpleasant thing—and miss a wave.
Therefore—dispersion, redundancy of chains, camouflage, decentralization, maximum questions in the chat, not meetings.
Civilians—down to the basement: water, fire extinguisher (if wiring shorts) and communication. Cases where heavy ballistics brought down a house to the basement are few in number throughout the war. And 80% of those killed and injured in the rear—it’s glass, debris, and the collapse of upper floors. If it collapses below—the State Emergency Service will dig you out, above—no chance.
Either us—or them. The sooner all those capitalizing on budgets for interactive cats, flower beds, sidewalks, and parks realize this, the fewer people we will bury after each salvo.
Every million invested in paving instead of a modular “glass” at a stop, relocating a plant to the west, or an Israeli “mamad” equivalent in a new building—is complicity in assisted suicide.
Imho, we should continue to hit refineries, transfer points, ports, and “wild berries”. Not trade off for emotions and “symmetric responses”.
Our goal is to grow the internal deficit of their budget to the point where cutting money from healthcare, housing and communal services, and pensions becomes impossible, and the military machine starts to consume itself—when they’ll have to cut funding for the military-industrial complex, payments to mercenaries, and procurement of components. The best response is to continue to break their economic backbone.
They want to force us to capitulate, disarm, and then, through a chain of referendums, pull out regions like bad teeth. Or grind the line of contact, approach larger cities essential to the economy, and threaten to turn them into Pokrovsk and Chasiv. During the truce, they will continue diversions, PSYOPS, and pressure in the “gray zone”, trying to impose an arms race on us and the EU.
Most of those killed in recent raids should have survived. And they will survive the next ones if we stop waiting for a miracle and start digging, pouring concrete, and methodically taking down their economy. Without emotions and panic.
War has never been a fun activity. But we will stand firm.
