    I don't think it makes sense to reject an explanation of current events grounded in a battle that is clearly over having been won and the victor using the ground they’ve gained to produce the events being discussed merelt because the broader war isn’t over and that victor may potentially lose some subsequent battle.

      I think the dissent is about the latter. It's not over yet, so people should not give up.

      The root comment clearly has ambiguity that people take both ways.
