Even if that were true, what does that have to do with Ukraine?
ukraine is an US proxy to shoot at russia. the us is provoking and paying for the war to weaken russia.
a win for russia is a loss for the west, which because of imperialism and colonialism, is a win for everyone else.
But of course! Those poor Russians just had to do a whole invasion, entirely out of self defense!
i didnt really put it that way, but kind of.
the cia has been talking openly about provoking it since the mid to late 2000s. putin has also been saying he would take nato expansion as a sign of aggression. this war was completely avoidable.
this talk of “evul russia” or “poor ukraine” is just propaganda to manufacture consent for spending billions on an useless war instead of addressing poverty or something useful, and people should stop believing it. this war is not about morals or being “good” or “evil” at all.
Ukraine is the country being invaded. Russia is the one invading. That is as simple as it is. You invade = you are the aggressor = you are the evil one.
i wish the world was that simple, with simple solutions. i’m still rooting for the best outcome for most people.
if you think this is about “good” and “evil”, you are being naive at best. war doesn’t work like superhero movies.
