Nah, why would they?

Sure they sought to bring Ukraine into the western fold, but to what point another proxy war with Russia?

Putin pulled the trigger here, end of story.
I don't agree. Did you check out the documentary I just posted? Take a look and let me know your thoughts. Don’t be like @Gronk and refuse to watch it, or like @Poupou Escobar when I shut him down with my arguments about Bitcoin and leave feeling defeated without ever acknowledging that I was right.

I think everyone is aware of the stone interview.






Did you know that Stone’s son worked for RT (Russia Today)

So? Would he have more credibility if he worked for the BBC or CNN?

Watch my documentary first. You can't even do that, can you? People like you are exactly why things are changing. I'm done with your nonsense. You virtue-signaling fool. Oh, and there's that word again. Are you really going to tell me again that I don't know what it means?

How many people died in the conflict today?
How much more f**king land do you want to stop the killing Vlad ? Will you stop all your childish invading comrade ?

But that view doesn’t take into account the stark reality of the current situation and risks further escalation.

If it escalates, it's because Putin has chosen to escalate it. If Ukraine sends missiles into Russia, it's got a shit ton of catching up to do before it reaches anywhere near the number of missiles Russia has sent into Ukraine

It's all very well to talk of making the concessions needed to keep Putin happy, after all it's not like it's our land we're giving away.

I do wonder if merkins who think that appeasing Putin is the answer would indulge such thoughts if it was the lands of their country that were the price of appeasement

Yeah you don’t.

Virtue signaling is when you say one thing but really do another.

You’re professing to have ethics, but really have none.

Too long for an internet discussion, and TBH it's gonna go over a heap of ground I'm already well familiar with. If you believe that it brings something pertinent to the discussion, point it out. If you think it makes the point that the US planned to have Putin invade, give me a time stamp.

Here's my position, it's really f**king easy to understand. I am anti war.

Putin invading escalated political wrangling into war. Putin is therefore a warmonger and a shit merkin. And his war has no justification.

There’s plenty of justification if you weren’t too lazy to consider a different perspective. They poked the bear, and they’ll pay the price. He will, and should reclaim land from Ukraine where the overwhelming majority identify as Russian.

Now you’re just being pig headed and argumentative.
Watch the documentary and give me a review. It was made before AI so you can’t give me that excuse. Oliver Stone isn’t the only one talking. You need perspective and to realise the fascist element of Ukraine.

You should’ve gotten on DOGE when I told you. You’d be well ahead. Anyway have fun staying poor.
