it's not hard to understand everyone is different and copes in different ways. medication does great for some people for some though it just prolongs dealing with their actual issues

okay maybe that is an objectively bad take. ukraine does seem like a puppet state though. their president is a former comedian like what
the united states former president was a TV show host

Based and red pilled fuck Ukraine
Ukraine's mob run so is Russia but there's probabky a decent slippery slope argument to be made about the invasion
career politicians are corrupt!
anyone who didn't live a life of politics isn't fit to lead!

I'm not really happy when Russia announces that they're best buds with China and go and do this
i think ukraine should stand up for it's sovereignty but i wouldn't get my boots back on and go over there to see it through. if you feel strongly you can volunteer your money or body to help them out
what would you do if another hostile country just kept encroaching on your territory after they said they wouldnt
china doesnt actually want any of this; mainly because they dont actually care and just care about the practical effects of 1. unifying the west against them more and 2. messing with their economic expansion in eastern europe
I don't like that the onus is on me when NATO and such are supposed to be the referees for this stuff
Leaders in Moscow, however, tell a different story. For them, Russia is the aggrieved party. They claim the United States has failed to uphold a promise that NATO would not expand into Eastern Europe, a deal made during the 1990 negotiations between the West and the Soviet Union over German unification. In this view, Russia is being forced to forestall NATO’s eastward march as a matter of self-defense.
its entirely possible we are the bad guys in this sense
absolutely but the positioning alone is frustrating. If Ukraine needed to be reined in like Russia describes then they wouldn't have to take such aggressive stances and measures. Russia's the antagonist for sure yes
massive entities are unwilling to commit resources very new and more or less backwater countries. look at how long it took world powers to get their shit together about isis while kurds, iraqis, yazidis, syrians etc bled to slow them down
everyones the bad guys in geopolitics, ppl just tell themselves the other guys are worse (and russia has a pretty bad history of mistreating ukraine, they like starved them n shit pretty badly)
