It's time to stand up and be counted, would you fight for Ukraine's interests?

I don't care if you're young or old, if you're infirmed, I want your honest pledge on whether you would be willing to gear up and take the fight to the Russians?

I ask this question because I see a shite ton of people on the left and many Neocon Republicans doing their damndest to persuade other Americans the US should stand with Ukraine in hopes of expelling Russia from Ukrainian territories. It's a war of attrition and that requires at least a million more ground troops to push Russia out of Ukraine.

Up vote if you're available to assist Ukraine, down vote if you have no desire to enter the meat grinder.

Absolutely not. I would never again fight outside of the US.

Ukraine was actually part of the Soviet Union for a good chunk of my life. I was doing fine.

I have nothing but the best wishes for them to have great success in repelling and expelling the Russians but it doesn't affect me one way or the other.

One of the few countries I would consider fighting against. Corrupt bastards run that country. There is nothing that would help Ukraine more than for there to be coup right now.

Kind of silly question.

There are many who sympathize with Ukraine e but wouldn’t go fight for them.

Many who sympathize with Russia but wouldn’t fight for them.

And people who don’t give a frick who wins either way.

The amount of people who would actually risk their life for either side is minimal.

Nope. If Europe wants to get into this fight, let them.

Why should I fight for Ukraine? The Ukrainian people need to fight this war themselves.

No. America should have never been meddling in Ukraine politics. This is all Obama and Bidens fault. Let the purple hair trannies and Leftist soyboys go fight on their behalf. Actually any person who put a Ukraine flag in their bio should be mandated to go fight in Ukraine.

Stand up and be counted

We are the dealers
We'll give you everything you need
Hail-hail to the good times
'Cause rock has got the right of way
We ain't no legend, ain't no cause
We're just livin' for today

Why is the intellectual disconnect so glaring between those who understand the historical conflicts in the bloodlands vs those who grab their pom poms and megaphones calling for the US to get further entangled in the Ukraine/Russia shite show? I don't understand their thinking.

It’s time to start thinking logging off and focusing on bettering yourself before it’s too late.

I don’t even want my money spent supporting them. It’s a corruption hole they’re filling with money.

This. Hope we don’t spend another nickel of taxpayer money.
