Do I support innocent civilians dying or workers being sent to fight and getting killed? No. Do I support stamping out of Nazis? Yes. Russia has a right to security guarantees on its border which the west has continually undermined for the last 30 years. Ukraine is being use as pawn to destroy Russia and Russia made the ugly decision of striking back. I welcome the downfall of NATO.
Considering Russia's invasion has directly lead to the doubling of NATO's border with Russia (via Finland joining), the soon to be member Sweden, as well as many NATO countries spending more on defense, I fail to see how Russia's invasion has done anything but strengthen NATO.
You think countries like Sweden taking money away from public services and funneling them into corrupt and bloated private military-industrial corporations makes them "stronger"?
I welcome the downfall of russia and there inflated self worth. If you dont support innocent people getting killed, dont support an invading country.
Russias security guaranties on ther borders are bullshit, when its them who is actively trying to keep all the regions unstable.
But fuck the people of the Donbas being shelled endlessly and starved for the better part of a decade by the Ukrainians amiright.
The unrest in donbass started when russia send its undercover army there in 2014. Without russias agression there would not have been a frontline.
Donbass wasnt shelled endlessly by ukranians, this is just wrong.
USA sent an undercover army in 2014, not russia.
Always projection.
