So many people gullible by the mainstream media sob stories.
War is big business folks.
Once you understand that, and you look at history , these wars aren't shocking nor unexpected.
It sure makes you question many things you've come to accept as "the truth"

I guess I was trying to speak more specifically to the exaggeration happening in our society when it comes to our problems. I'm not saying we have to accept our problems because someone somewhere has bigger ones (that will always be the case), but people need to be more reasonable with their complaints and keep things in perspective. There's a difference between being thirsty and dying of thirst, so don't act like you're dying of thirst unless you actually are. The same thing applies to the concept of "freedom", and calling someone like Trudeau a nazi or a dictator is laughable when you put him next to ACTUAL nazi's and dictators.
LOL Nice troll job. I'll bite.
With trump's help, Putin had been setting this up for the 4 years before Biden was elected. Trump did everything he could to weaken NATO while kissing Putin's ass the whole time. Trump lifted sanctions on Russia, put in place by Obama. Trump took Putin's word over his own intelligence in Helsinki. He allowed Putin to put bounties on American soldiers in Afghanistan by not saying a word. Never spoke badly about Putin. Not once did he criticize Putin and has been praising him all week for his invasion of Ukraine. If you didn't see this, then you're as delusional as MAGA. Let me guess. You send money to him every month.
Who says Putin is the bad guy? He is portrayed as such because he doesn't kiss the global elite's ass, like Biden and Trudeau do.
Russia and North Korea are hated by the West because they can't be controlled.
You folks really need to start using some of that brainpower you have.
Trump certainly likes to lavish the praise on Putin. Maybe he is the good guy in all of this. Most Russians don't agree, but what the hell do they know. And anyways If they have an issue with Putin invading Ukraine they can just protest..... ooops. Scratch that. Protesting in Russia is apparently, ahem, "highly discouraged" (ie., your family and yourself may be disappeared)
Yikes.
They don't call it Russian Roulette for nothing....

He wants to return the region to pre USSR land territories. He wants some form of a Warsaw Pact and believes he can achieve this by making up false reasons and justify his invasion of Ukraine. I believe he won’t stop there and didn’t like the NATO expansion made about 15 years ago. He’s a madman and sanctions will not stop him. I hope the Ukrainian people fight for their country and give the Russians Afghanistan PT 2.

Scary. It looks like President Zelensky and his family are targets and it looks like Russian forces are close. If captured, will they be executed?
Insane.

Kind of cowardly of NATO not to take in Ukraine before this mess. This only emboldens China knowing that “sanctions” is the punishment for invasion of a free country. China tried a land grab with India but India fought back. Bully the bully kind of thing.

Ya for sure. At what point do the other world powers actually join the war against Russia? It seems so strange to me everyone going "Russia is going to bear the consequences! We are going to sanction the shit out of them!"
That seems so spineless to me. If they are SO wrong, I don't understand why they aren't helping in the Ukraine defense. If the Americans actually engaged Russia in Ukraine's defense, would that be World War 3?
