You are pretending as if anyone is forcing Ukraine into defending itself, when that's typically the response to any invasion.......
You are acting as if Russia nor Ukraine have any autonomy in their actions. I find it hilarious that whenever this narrative of "ending the war to save ukrainians" you people never suggest that maybe Russia could just stop killing their neighbors.
If Ukraine wants to end the war, then I'm fine with it. They are the only people who get to decide what their sovereignty is worth, and when enough is enough.
I just think it's morally bankrupt to hide behind the the virtue signaling of "stop the death" while also cheering for the people actually killing Ukrainians.
Yes, men in Ukraine are literally forced to fight by their government. That's war. No pretending necessary.
Ahh, so we are being pedantic now? It's pretty clear that I was talking about the nation, not anecdotal accounts of individuals.
Which is one of the reasons why we shouldn't be defending nations who attack their neighbors in opportunistic land grabs?
