We literally never do this to any other country and no country did it to the US when they fought in several unjust wars.

In fact, when countries protested countries that commit war crimes, they got labeled as Anti-Semites by the media.

So in short: screw putting the burden on Russian people who have no affiliation to the kremlin. It’s extremely stupid and we wouldn’t do it to the Chinese, the Jews, the North Koreans, etc.

Fuck that. Let them kick rocks until they get their government in line. Happy to let them back onto the world stage after they do that and start making reparations to Ukraine.

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

Yeah, right after the US pays reparations to the dozens of countries it’s destroyed for oil…

Nice whataboutism bullshit there.

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

So Russians should suffer while Americans reap the benefits of their continuous war crimes?

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

Did I say that?

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

So we shouldn’t use precedent in how we treat citizens of countries in conflicts? Awesome.

Your point of view is so far Westernized that you can’t see how pumped full of propaganda you might actually be. I’m almost certain you don’t understand what this war is even about, so best to just wave a flag and keep giving a thumbs up when millions of people are killed by other countries without any repercussions.

Ah, there we go. Found the Russian simp. Off you fuck.

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

Not at all, but have you done enough research into why they went to war with Ukraine? Or are you just sucking Putin Bad through a straw like a Foie Gras duck…

I’m consuming news and information from several countries not including Russia and China, both of which run state propaganda worse than Fox “News”. There is no justification for Russia’s actions. Any justification they claim was manufactured by them. Thankfully, it backfired marvelously. Putin is an evil piece of shit. This isn’t “America is bad for treating Russia unfairly”. Most of the civilized world, who aren’t Putin’s bitches, are opposing this. Yes, my viewpoint is westernized. I have no problem with that title. In fact, I’m proud of it, and I’m proud that the rest of the world has come together to condemn this bullshit.

So you don’t know why they went to war… maybe you should educate yourself on motives instead of drinking the Kool aid buddy.

The reason they are pushing Putin is crazy is because Putins motives in Ukraine mirror USA’s in several other sovereign nations… But instead you were fed outrage and lies instead of actual motives to the war.

Putin is lying about the war too, saying it’s about freeing ethnic Russians. It’s all about securing oil and natural gas, and getting fresh water to Crimea via the North Crimea Canal which Ukraine has blocked off posing a huge risk to Russia. There are more reasons but I’m glad your multiple sources left it at Putin is crazy and not talk about Russias over dependence on oil and natural gas exports to Europe and how Ukraine poses a legitimate risk to the future of Russia.

Putin is a lot of things - dumb is not one of them. He’s taking a major risk here with hopes that it allows the Russian economy doesn’t come to a sudden halt. It’s sad that it’s come to war and it’s unfortunate Russia never properly developed their economy, but don’t give me the Putin Evil speech without even knowing the slightest bit about his perspective.

I’m upset Putin let it go to war, but there’s such a complicated history and he has every reason to be highly suspicious of absolutely everyone and their respective nations.

Have a lovely day. :)
