The war is going great. dean-smile

Yet another horrifying scene which would be plastered all over network news if only it were happening in Russia instead.

It’s not “authoritarianism” if it’s happening in a US ally (or puppet).

    Idgaf about the US. The Ukrainians are the ones I believe.

    Invasion is not defence.

    Mutual aid is not aggression.

    Idgaf what you say, you can choose your own meanings for words and outside of your in-group, you are going to be viewed as unhinged, and unreasonable.

      Idgaf about the US.

      You fully support the US and its glorified provinces that are the rest of NATO.
      What you are actually saying here is ‘I’m going to selectively forget about what is happening in order to make yet another “Iraq has WMDs” narrative believable’.

      The Ukrainians are the ones I believe.

      The Ukrainians don’t want to be abducted from the streets by the Ukrainian military, and they want for their government to engage in peace negotiations.
      Either way, the desires of the population of nazi Germany/NATO/etc. have less priority over the needs of the rest of the world on account of your empire being the aggressor.

      By the way, Ukraine has invaded at least Iraq and Syria, and you are completely fine with that.

      Invasion is not defence.

      Then you should stop invading everywhere.

      Mutual aid is not aggression.

      Performing coups, genocides, maintaining colonialism, etc. - the things that your empire keeps doing and the things that the rest of the world has every right to defend against - is aggression.
      Also, mutual aid between genocidaires is also aggression.

      Idgaf what you say

      You never did care about truth. You want to keep your head in the sand and maintain the fantasy built up by your fuhrers.
      You want to believe that all of your invasions and genocides and torture are completely fine, because it’s okay when you do it, and you want to believe that the rest of the world resisting you is somehow bad.

      you can choose your own meanings for words and outside of your in-group, you are going to be viewed as unhinged, and unreasonable.

      My in-group is the people who do not support genocides and colonialism.
      Your in-group are the people who think that NATO can attack everybody and resisting that is bad.

        Cry more man. Nato didn’t attack Russia from Ukraine. Ukraine didn’t attack Russia.

        Ukrainians don’t want to be Russian. That’s why that territory is separate, with their own government. Neither do Lithuanians, Latvians, Armenians etc.

        Distinct people, with their own language.

          Cry more man.

          Haha.
          This reeks of ‘I’m not owned, I’m not owned’ corncob stuff.

          Nato didn’t attack Russia from Ukraine.

          It did, but even if we ignore that part of reality for a second, NATO did attempt to. The rest of the world has every right to defend itself from your genocidal empire, and you don’t get to dictate the rest of the world how to defend against you.

          Ukraine didn’t attack Russia.

          Yeah, it did. Relevant attacks include both terror attacks and war crimes.

          Ukrainians don’t want to be Russian.

          Ok. And the rest of the world doesn’t want to be attacked by NATO.
          Not sure why you even mentioned that, considering that Russia never demanded that, but even aside from that the needs of the populations of nazi Germany/NATO/etc. do not at all outweigh the right of the rest of the world to defend itself against you.

          That’s why that territory is separate, with their own government.

          That’s a pretty silly oversimplification. The reasons for this are a bit more complicated and numerious, including wars between Poland and the Russian Tsardom/the Russian Empire that contributed to the Ukrainian ethnogenesis, the Bolsheviks creating the Ukrainian SSR, the destruction of the USSR by pro-NATO forces that later took over the remnants, etc.
          Either way, this is irrelevant, as the desires of the populations of nazi Germany/NATO and other genocidal polities do not outweigh the right to self-defence of the rest of the world.

          Neither do Lithuanians, Latvians, Armenians etc.

          Imagine bringing Lithuania and Latvia into this as ‘the good guys’ while engaging in these nationalist theatrics.

          Distinct people, with their own language.

          Who want to rob and commit genocides against the rest of the world, and who must be stopped.

              Hallucinating “attempts” at attacks. Awesome.

              Ah yes, the ‘hallucinated’ events, such as the invasion of Iraq, the occupation of Kursk, the genocide of Palestine, operation ‘Spiderweb’ (where NATO blatantly committed a war crime), invasion of Afghanistan, the bombings of civilians (including by Ukraine), invasions of Syria, Libya, etc.

              What is actually being hallucinated is Russia supposedly kidnapping and not repatriating children.

                  Out of those things that I did mention, Ukraine directly took part in the invasions of Iraq and Syria (which means proximate, though indirect, participation in the ongoing genocide of Palestine), as well as operation ‘Spiderweb’ (which was literally a blatant war crime), the occupation of Kursk, and it has - as I have mentioned - engaged in bombing of civilians. You are completely fine with all of that.

                  The rest of the world (which includes Russia) has every right to defend itself against the most prolific invader in the world. You don’t get to dictate the rest of the world how to resist you.

                  Also, you are yet to suggest how else Russia should have prevented NATO from deploying near the former’s most populated areas.

                    Nato didn’t attack Russia from Ukraine. Ukraine didn’t attack Russia.

                    Attacking somebody else, is not an attack on Russia. They could have went and supplied their own troops to their allies.
