Yeah, okay I'm with you here.

I think this very likely to be true too.

If they exercise full control of the South China Sea, that will completely cutoff Japan.
That's goofy. The Pacific is really really big and Japan is reconstituting their navy and other armed forces. Which is a damn good thing for our side. There is no naval blockade of Japan that would work. There would be a lot of new artificial reefs created with all of the ships that would be sunk.

That will affect world trade and our way of life beyond a point most Americans realize.
That's fair. This is also why we need to bring manufacturing back to our shores. Especially so for things like medical supplies and defense. I hate that India is creating much of our medicine. There is no excuse for that at all.

Russia has a land bridge to Crimea. That was the goal, not to advance into Wurope and take it over or whatever fantasies that have been places in your head
Russia marched an entire Corps to within 20 miles of Kyiv before they were beaten back and retreated in March 2022.
I guess this waste of fuel, ammunition, and lives was a part of Putin’s 4-D chess war plan?
If so, he’s about as good a military strategist as Hitler was.

People hyper focused on what non Americans think of America is the reason we are in the mess we are in today. If the world could do it any better, they would be America.
Read the Constitution. We don’t owe anyone anything. If dudes in tracksuit countries wanna war, go for it. If sand people want to fight over magic dirt another 3000 years, great.
We could have a wall 50 feet high by 30 feet wide stretching out halfway into the Pacific and Atlantic surrounding the US with the money we spent on dumb shite countries with no American interest whatsoever.
What’s coming next is bad. At our lowest point, we will resort back to tribalism.

They don’t support financially as required already but let’s worry that we need to cough up more

Ok. How much? How much do you people want? Give me a dollar amount. How much to get you people to shut the frick up about Ukraine? And it'd better not be "whatever it takes".
A hundred billion to never hear about Ukraine again?
Two hundred and fifty billion?

The only way Russia is getting defeated is if NATO/US forces directly enter the war. And, even then, it would lead to a massive loss of life on both sides, and potentially lead to a nuclear conflict. No thanks.
What the mainstream media fails to tell you is that could have been prevented with diplomacy, non violation of the Minsk Accords. Not to mention Nuland and the war pigs involvement in the Maidan revolution.

Are you going to imply that Hitler and WW11 are in line for the Russian Ukraine conflict?

Close our borders first then we’ll talk.

Russia, at any point, could escalate this and take out Kyiv's leadership, or just flatten the city. As such, they have been pushing slowly to the Dnieper River and will likely take Kharkiv, and perhaps, Odessa.

Support the war effort yourself: go and volunteer to fight in Zelensky's army.

To late, the world already saw Biden shite all over our Afghan 'allies' when he bailed out.

Ukraine cannot win without a lot more men. Its a meatgrinder, a battle of attrition.
You folks just dont understand what this means. Your money aint doing much.

No one expects China to come save them militarily, so there isn’t a great replacement there. It’s also not the US’s job to save a non-NATO member. There are also other great nations such as England, Germany, France to name a few that are involved and can always step up more if they would like to.
Australia isn’t watching this thinking anything of us. Australia is one of our closest allies, I would say the 5 Eyes are all our closest allies since we’re still part of the anglosphere. Australia also has allowed Chinese money to buy up an incredible amount of real estate and assets in Australia so they created their own problems that have zero to do with us — and they are fully aware of that. It’s in any smaller nations best interest to play with the big powers and get what they can out of all of us. I don’t see the issue.
I’ll tell you what the biggest problem is, it’s not Ukraine — it’s incompetence in our leadership. We have had awful Presidents, awful politicians, awful at being world police. No one cares about Ukraine compared to that. Just another drop in the bucket of our incompetence. I also think most would agree we have been extremely generous w/ Ukraine (and to Israel as well).
