If everyone pronounces Київ properly, but Russia wins, it's a big loss. If no one pronounces it properly, but Russia loses, it's a big win. And pronouncing it correctly or incorrectly isn't going to change who wins this war.

Don't tell me - let me guess! You're an American liberal.

The reason America is so fucked, and will never recover, is that its liberals cannot understand the difference between symbolic victories and actual victories, and thus are completely unable to resist the forces of evil who keep pushing the country rightward.
