Yeah Crimea invasion was basically Sudetenland.

Nobody really thought Putin would become completely unhinged.

Nobody thought Kiev would last past the first 48 hours, least of all Putin.
I didn't believe it at first. I didn't even believe it about 1 week later.

Yet I definitely expected the follow up to be crap for Russia when Zelensky said he's not leaving Kiev and he needs ammo, not a ride.

Could you elaborate your analogy?
Crimea - Sudetenland (Munich Agreement 1938)

Ukraine 2022 - Poland 1939
