I guess your position is that Russia is not at "full scale war" with Ukraine then.

Currently that entails "large drone attacks" that kill two and injure dozens.

That's a little short of the full scale war Russia could wield in WWI and WWII.

You might want to check some reliable sources about how the war is going for Ukraine, because it seems like you think they are kicking some Russian bootie, which is simply not the case. Take the US (and risk of mutual worldwide nuclear contamination) out of the equation and Ukraine would be in even worse shape.

This seems like quite the assumption.

It is generally a mistake to attempt telepathy/IP.

Russia not doing nearly as well as one might expect for an aging out core of a former superpower is not an equivilance with their target is kicking their arse.

The grind Russia is having to go through against Ukraine is an indicator of how it might fare against a full NATO (sans the US).

For a supposed superpower they are doing very badly
