    So your answer is to keep the meatgrinder running for as long as possible? Sure, countless Ukrainians and Russians are dying, but at least the lines on the map don’t change.

      No the real answer is these people somehow think their constant egging on escalation instead of some sort of diplomatic resolution, won’t eventually lead inevitably to the war escaping its proxy status and evolve into a REAL inter-imperialist direct confrontation with all of what it implies (it implies nukes)

      If Ukraine wants to remain a sovereign nation and retain its land, then what alternative does it have? I don’t think any nation in their right mind would happily let an invader just attack without putting up a defence.

      Russia themselves threw millions of men into the meat grinder to defeat the Nazis and so did the allies. So did the north Vietnamese against the US. It’s tragic, but it’s it’s unfortunately the reality when there’s bad actors that invade other nations.

        You think nazis are in this case the good actors because the genocide they were busy with got interrupted by an invader invited by the people you wanted killed off to protect them?

          That’s it, keep peddling the Russian progaganda that the Ukrainians are Nazis and the Russians are humanitarian peacekeepers.

            And you just keep using thought terminating cliches like “everything true but also bad is enemy propaganda” to prevent yourself from thinking about what holiday Ukraine made January first.

            As just a single flippant example to both call you an idiot and say ‘fuck you’ for making me bother making a self evident case.

            Defending Ukraine in this war is exactly equal to supporting the genocide they were committing to provoke it.

      The joke is that what you want has been done already when Russia invaded the Krim.

      How dumb do you have to be to think that Russia would not do the same shit again soon if Ukraine decides to do nothing?
