There’s only so long you can go with empty catchphrases before the reality of ‘US support’ is obvious to everyone (except western libs, of course, but I’m willing to give more credit to Ukrainians who are on a much sharper side of US promises than are western libs tucked up safe and sound).
I think the realization that Ukraine got cynically used is starting to sink in, and I expect this could result in a serious backlash against the west in the future.

As opposed to, you know, blaming them for being dragged into the whole mess as cannon fodder to begin with
