I don’t mean to make it about me one bit.

If anything, I mean to make it about the people directly affected, which seems completely lost on perhaps everyone but me.

I don't mind people disagreeing. I even welcome it. I choose IGNORE when people just decide to go full abusive/angry/insulting/demeaning on every response. It's sad and pathetic and I have better things to do with my time than process that kind of garbage.

you mean the Ukrainian citizens?

the ones who voted for independence? the ones who voted to be part of NATO? the ones who are having their civilian infrastructure attacked on the reg? or the kids that were kidnapped? or the citizens who’ve been forced to get russian passports?

yeah, that’s exactly what you’ve made this about?

Yea.

I’ll have to brush up on that whole nato vote you Stan so hard for. And is “vote for independence” a euphemism for, “militant right wing coup?”

But, I highly doubt the average Ukrainian citizen is saying things like, “at least we’re weakening Russia for Merica’s sake!” Or, “at least NATO is getting to flex on China!” Or, “at least the western MIC is cleaning house with those obsolete weapons stashes!”

In fact, I’d guess the average Ukrainian wants this shit to be over with just as much as Qusdahl.

sparko might be onto something.

but, be careful! Don't get too curious! next thing you know, you might be questioning things like, this push to whitewash the whole nazi problem as Russian propaganda.

Speaking of which...

Germany and Russia were enemies in WWII?

If Nazis were our biggest problem in Ukraine,
you'd have a point.

They aren't,
so you don't.
