Yeah, I noticed libs got notably more quite after the failed summer counteroffensive and have slowly been becoming more doomeristic since then. Like, before that a lot of them genuinely believed that Leopards/Abrams etc. were impervious machines that could survive indirect nuke hits and that Russia totally was done for. I also don't think any of them anticipated that Russia and it's tiny nominal GDP would be able produce more ammunition then NATO in it's entirety.
Haha, what's notable though is that these headlines are all of a sudden appearing in mainstream western media. I'm guessing that things are so bad now that they're expecting an imminent collapse, and they're preparing people who've been guzzling propaganda for the past couple of years for it.
Based on the responses from libs that I've seen, they're not taking it well. They seem to be insisting that all of the western media is just "Russian disinformation" now as well.
