Closing in on 10k posts. Great job all.
Ukraine is a democracy fighting for its freedom against a genocidal fascist regime led an evil maniac threatening nuclear obliteration against them and the west. The west, led by the US, is helping Ukraine.
Therefore Ukraine and the west are very much the good guys.
Sometimes the decision as to who to support in a war is that simple. World War II was simple in that the Allies were the good guys and the Nazis the very, very bad guys.
This war is even more simple in the fact that the Allies this time don’t have Stalin, who was an evil monster, prominent in their ranks.
You, like all lifestyle contrarians, see things that are nuanced through black and white, while you attempt to cloud things that are very much black and white with false, fake, lying, mendacious, shameless, intelligence insulting fog.
Ukraine and the west = the goodies
Russia = the evil baddies
Grand, you’re ethnic English so.
A lot of things are that simple, yes.
This is as simple as the question of which is correct between the competing statements that “the earth is round” versus “the world is flat”.
It has nothing to do with language.
The largest ethnic minority in the Ukraine is Russian by a long distance. Its bizarre you claiming they don’t exist. I suppose it makes it easier for you to keep going with your black and white, good and evil nonsense
Two of the scariest things sais here tonight
@Cheasty - ethnic Russians don’t exist in Ukraine, almost Putin-esque
@glasagusban - countries looking west will have freedom and wealth - amost putin-esque
Pick your poison lads
Why did they all vote to leave the USSR in 1991?
Apparently they lived peacefully whilst Russian puppet Presidents were in charge. That seems logical
Ok, obviously I don’t agree with you, but what is your preferred outcome then?
I’m scratching my head to be honest. Certainly Zelensky seems to be fight to the death.
But where does this end?
I can’t see a good outcome without diplomcy kicking in fairly lively.
You’re like a flat earther unironically proclaiming “it’s scary that there are still people who believe the earth is round”.
Genuinely. It’s hilarious.
Pick your poison lads
Look at that language
Because the USSR broke up. There was no USSR.
You fucking moron
Those silly Crimeans
I hope for your sake you’re stoned out of your mind
Ok, obviously I don’t agree with you, but what is your preferred outcome then?
Total military defeat for Russia. Putin and the rest of his regime either tried in the Hague or summarily executed, I don’t really care which. Russia is demilitarised. A western client regime in Russia that operates Russia for the benefit of the west with a view to possibly bringing them into the fold in future decades. That’s what happened in West Germany from 1945 on.
I’m scratching my head to be honest. Certainly Zelensky seems to be fight to the death.
Yes, of course that’s his attitude. His country has been invaded. He will be remembered as a hero.
But where does this end?
NATO flattening Moscow and other Russian cities in response to the use of Russian nuclear weapons, quite possibly. If this is so it will be because they have been left with no other alternative.
The Russians could prevent this tomorrow by coming to their senses and leaving all of Ukraine but they show no sign of it.
I can’t see a good outcome without diplomcy kicking in fairly lively.
There is no diplomacy and there can be none. You cannot negotiate with Hitler.
Ukraine is a democracy
Ukraine was as bent as an S hook on the eve of war. It was highly corrupt and Zelensky was facing trouble from ratings and the IMF because of the level of corruptness. So go easy on the democracy drum.
There’s no one here supporting Putin or Russia but there’s a little clan of you who just cant decipher that fact. Discussing the wider causes of conflict in the area or the corrupt nature of the west doesn’t correlate to supporting Russia…
Ethnic Russians don’t exist in Ukraine and the west will bring freedom and prosperity to the East mate. Fall in
Because the USSR broke up. There was no USSR.
You fucking moron
The USSR broke up because all the people in the other republics wanted to leave it and leave the Russian jackboot.
If they didn’t want to leave it they would not have left.
You and Putin say: “the people have no right to do wrong”.
Putin also says “you, pretty girl, be my bitch or I’ll rape you repeatedly”. He literally said that in public.
The way to a girl’s heart alright.
Fairplay on the decent reply, pal.
Hard not to argue with most of that to be honest other than I suppose to say that there is another perspective there.
