Is it bad takes, controversial posts, or something else?

    Is Russia not big boy enough to make decisions on its own? They had to go to war with someone because of a threat of a country next to them joining NATO even though there was no hope to join nato? Maybe Russia should get their shit together then. Ukraine was part of NATO partners for peace in the early 90s. They’ve wanted to be part of NATO. Pretending Russia was forced into it is ridiculous.

      Come back after the war is over so you can pretend you were against the entire war the whole time

        I was against the war when it started I’m against the war now obviously. I will be against the war when it’s over. So I’m not really sure what you’re insinuating. Also I’m always against countries invading other countries on flimsy justification. Whether it’s the US and Iraq or Russia and Ukraine or Israel and palestine.

            I support the invading army to stop invading and go home. Keep their own soldiers alive as well, to go home and be with their families.

              And the Russians support Ukraine accept that the territory no longer belongs to them, and demilitarize so the millions of Ukrainians who’ve fled can come home and rebuild.

              That’s not supporting peace, “I want the other side to just give up” is not materially different than the most bloodthirsty warhawk’s position.
