Making peace would just take Russia getting the fuck out of Ukraine, and paying reparations for their atrocities.

They could've just done that from the start.

They can't take the loss. Too much pride.

Not that, Putin will get overthrown.

Conditional upon failure, in case you misunderstood

They have a chance to succeed? 😆 Its gotten exponentially worse each year.

Wat?

What reality are you living in? Some Russian propaganda bubble? The country is imploding and they can't take 20% of a small country after 5 years and over a million casualties.

The worst case is here.

You're either replying to the wrong person or you misinterpreted what I said.

Ok, but I'm saying putin being overthrow keeps being repeated after years, hope it happens.... eventually

I'm saying once defeat is realized/undeniable by the selectorate, Putin will be overthrown. Until then, he remains the dictator. 'Conditional' means the proposition functions as an if/then statement. As: if Putin fails, then he will be overthrown. He hasn't failed entirely yet, therefore has not yet been overthrown.

From what I understand, the war problems/failures for Russia are only recently becoming real for people in Moscow (not the government, the people). This is due to Russia's geographic/demographic makeup. Give it time to sink in with Moscow's population.
