      You mean the same as yours. Do you care that you use technology, wear clothing and eat food made by slaves? Anyone in that situation would want to go home at almost any cost. It’s easy to moralise from your armchair, Uncle Walter.

        What are you even talking about? She went to a foreign, hostile nation, brought drugs across the ocean, got arrested, and her stupidity caused the government to release the merchant of death into Russia’s hands during a war.

        Yet somehow I’m equal cause I wear clothing? Wtf dude? You use all the same stuff I do, so that means you shut the fuck up about global affairs and don’t comment on anything? Right? Right???

        Yeah, but very few people would actually qualify for the special treatment she got to make it happen.

        You, for example, would not qualify. You’d still be rotting in a russian prison and probably sent to the frontlines of Ukraine.

          Western NATO countries dont care about whats happening in Ukraine. If they dont theres nothing i can do. Maybe direct your anger towards them for making Ukraine a pawn. But no you’re right it’s Britneys fault.

                So clearly you don’t know that word means. And she had a vape pen containing what substance or compound? I’m listening.

                Dude I’m a daily weed smoker, but to bring thc or cannabis oil to Russia is just rock chewing stupid, and I’d kick myself for being that dumb, not demand to be rescued

                  She was an idiot to go to Russia in the first place. It was like a week before the start of the Ukraine invasion, but it wasn’t like the signs weren’t already there, they’d already done it a few years before with barely any western response, and international tensions were extremely high. The US state department was advising their citizens to leave Russia. Additionally, Russia is incredibly homophobic. She had a million things telling her not to go there, and not only did she not listen but compounded the issue by giving them a legal reason to use her. Even though it was terrible of them to imprison her and use her as a pawn, this felt like a case of a famous person thinking they should get special treatment from the very start, which in the end is exactly what happened.

            Nato is pumping trillions into Ukraine so they do care. Ukraine was invaded and is defending itself. Not sure how that makes them a pawn.

            Yes it’s brittneys fault. Your actions are your fault.

            Now do Israel and Russia.

              Israel is doing genocide, and Russia invaded a country and is bad. They are both in doing war crimes. What do you mean, do Israel and Russia?
