    I get that you’re spreading bullshit Russian propoganda, yes. None of that shit you said makes any difference, NONE OF IT JUSTIFIES RUSSIA’S INVASION OF UKRANE. Russia does not have a right to invade other countries, kill thousands of civilians, and try to annex it. Period, end of story. I dont’ give a fuck if you think every person in Ukraine is a “chump,” it doesn’t fucking matter. Putin could end this shit tomorrow, by pulling out his troops because he’s the one who invaded Ukraine in the first place.

    When you start seeing democracy as a universal concept, and not just a select privilege enjoyed on the backs of others, you start seeing America as the least democratic nation in the world.

    You telling me this while defending Russia and Putin’s invasion of Ukraine is peak irony.

      If I thought Ukrainians were all chumps then I wouldn’t be advocating for their democratic rights to self determination. Let them vote, FFS.

      With all the Russophobic conditioning you’ve been through it’s probably hard to wrap your head around the fact that the Ukraine War has seen the lowest civilian death rate than any major conflict in world history. This is what happens when a nation is pushed into conflict but still sees their adversary as human. Name one war of aggression by America that fits that.

      Ukraine is a hostage scenario, and Russia is liberating them. This was especially evident in the liberation of Mariupol, an ethnic Russian city that democratically seceded after the coup and before the Azov Brigade made them into prisoners, slaughtering anyone who tried to flee East.

      Watching Chechens stack the Nazi’s bodies like cordwood was more satisfying than I care to admit. 🍿👍

      Odessa next, please.
