Real talk I think the memes flowed easily back then because Ukraine was the underdog and surpassing everyone's expectations in funny ways.

Now... I think it's actually harder to meme when your side is winning. Double when it's a gruelling war of attrition with lots of civilian casualties.

Even the Russian losses alone are sad as hell. A million and a half casualties for nothing but an old man's ego.

Not counting the ones the russians killed themselves for money or for not going on assault, etc.
