Are you fixing to bust out your "These Colors Don't Run" shirt while you're eating freedom fries listening to Toby Keith talking about how we got to invade Iraq and stop them WMD's?

Putin knew Ukraine was a dirty hub for money laundry and a playground for the corrupt ruling elite of the west like John McCain and the US State Department. This played a role in him wanting to take it back.




Wait, are you insinuating that Putin is the good guy here?

No but it’s hilarious watching you bust out the “Putin is the last man fighting for justice” shirt.

He'll call you a Putin fanboy for giving him a realpolitik

I would say that he would've called you a Saddam fanboy for opposing invading Iraq, but he's very clearly too young to know what was going on in 2003.

No, its a lot more complicated than "good vs bad". There are too many moving parts. Putin isn't a good actor in this scenario. Zelensky isn't an innocent guy in this scenario. I feel bad for the citizens of Ukraine that are paying the price for their government's allegiance to the CIA.

Oh it’s definitely a cringe worthy song but you definitely don’t like it based on it having a positive outlook on America not the over the top, tone death message.

There is nothing Ukraine can/could do to improve itself that Russia would approve because Russia wants a subservient subject-nation. Ukraine developing and improving means stronger independence, and anything other than pro-Russian development is seen as anti-Russian development by Putin.


I think that's fair.

I thought the forecast of war from our intelligence agencies was bluster. But, I will say Lavelle here seemed to have called it last month that this is a Cuban Missile Crisis in reverse. Now, what remains to be seen is whether he is correct about Russia not wanting to occupy Ukraine. He said they want to go in and knock out missile systems. If so, I'm sure Russia getting in and out will be painted as a failure. But, I wondered if Putin is just trying to set them back 5 or 10 years.

No it’s exactly what you are implying. Now you are just too big of a coward to admit it.

I don't like it because it was used as a war mongering rallying cry anthem for several years by war mongering neocon hawks like Sean Hannity to justify the needless deaths of thousands of lives in the middle east.

According to this Ukrainian woman speaking on Fox News, Ukraine is getting their arse kicked and they need boots on the ground fast. This clearly contrasts from the Reddit/TD feed I’m getting here!

It's hilarious watching the people who called Bush a war criminal back in the Iraq days invoke the same bullshite his supporters did when it comes to this conflict. You can simultaneously recognize that Putin is a bad dude and yet oppose all this moralizing and virtue signaling about democracy and national sovereignty when the United States has zero problems invading or bombing sovereign nations.

but Ukraine is the one thing where we're the good guys for staging an overt coup against the duly elected government

Even if we overthrew a corrupt Russian plant for a Western plant, that's still not justification for invasion by Russia

Assuming the worst about your interpretation, Ukraine committed no aggressive acts towards Russia. Hell, it didn't even apply for NATO membership and, even had it joined NATO, that's not an aggressive move towards Russia (as NATO creates defensive responsibilities).

If Russia's argument is that it might not be able to invade Ukraine without facing a larger response is their justification for invasion now? Not a justification.

That vid was interesting. What are the Reds doing w the excavators during the initial invasion stages? Seems like a waste of manpower up front
