The concept of a Pyrrhic victory is traced back to King Pyrrhus of Epirus during his campaigns against the Roman Republic between 280 BC and 275 BC. Although Pyrrhus won tactical battles at Heraclea and Asculum, his losses were so severe that he noted another such victory would utterly ruin him. This historical parallel is used to describe modern military conflicts that achieve immediate goals but lead to the eventual collapse of the victor's empire.

Ukraine is described as a CIA cutout rather than a democracy, with Volodymyr Zelensky accused of shutting down the press and canceling elections.
