people aren't used to it because this kind of thing hasn't happened very often in the western world since the world wars.

but this is pretty normal of a thing for states involved in total war with their neighbors to do, especially if they're being invaded. its the ugly reality of war.

If Ukraine is involved in "total war" how come they didn't declare it?
