battlefront

Since then, “Star Wars” has become a sort of battlefront in the culture wars where self-proclaimed “superfans” feel emboldened to make racist and sexist remarks veiled as criticism.

Female agency and bodily autonomy have once again become political battlefronts, and debates around artificial intelligence have invited anxiety about the future and deeper questions about humanity.

Ukraine’s defense ministry said reserve units had been deployed to counter the Russian ground attack, a move that could also complicate efforts to bolster Ukrainian defense elsewhere along the battlefront.

However, the corruption and incompetence of the czar’s government, along with huge losses on the battlefronts, had eroded the army’s morale and darkened the mood of the Russian public.

The U.S. officials said some of the weapons will be delivered very quickly to the battlefront — at times within days — but it could take longer for other items to arrive.
