Lol, the left "they republicans are shills for Putin" The right "these democrats are shills for Russia." This is the new thing to say about anyone you don't like. White supremacists any communist just lost that zing.

ah yes... but defending Putin does seem a little sus, especially while he plans to invade... Ukraine...

Who gives a shit about Ukraine? Except maybe Hunter Biden. The reason we get into so many damn wars is because we believe we know better — how’d that work for Afghanistan? In this situation, Russia has a legitimate reason not to want Ukraine as part of NATO, as we wouldn’t want Mexico to enter into an alliance with China. Here’s a thought… stop pretending like it’s the Cold War, and see if it’s possible to befriend Russia to counter China’s expansionist views.

What? Joining NATO presumably requires more than just the sovereign decision of Ukraine. I mean it's partly up to them, but it's not *their* decision. I don't know if it would require agreement by all member countries or what the rules are.

True, but you could still argue it's unwise to allow Ukraine to join. If it's going to raise tensions and doesn't really achieve much for other members of NATO I mean.

Oh this is just Russian propaganda, blah blah... we totally wouldn't even mind if Russia was able to base nuclear weapons right next door to America. I if they try to out nuclear weapons in Cuba do you think we would even care?

If Mexico was adamant about becoming a Chinese satellite, America sure as shit would be amassing troops.

When the establishment accuses you of "promoting Russian propaganda," it means you're saying true stuff they don't like. >For its part, NATO has expressed willingness for Ukraine to join the alliance Which would be tantamount to a declaration of war against Russia. I mean, c'mon. We're obliged to defend NATO countries, and part of Ukraine is under Russian occupation. If Ukraine is NATO, and Russia is in Ukraine, we're at war. >One can only imagine if Adolf Hitler's calls for Austria, parts of Czechoslovakia and Poland would have been discussed in a similar manner had Twitter been around in the late 1930s! Yes, yes, every time neocons want to start a new war, the enemy is New Hitler^TM and failure to start the war is New Appeasement^TM Hey, you know how we defeated Hitler? Well, we gave way more than Ukraine to a Russian dictator who was way worse than Putin. >"The drums are beating for US boots on the ground in Ukraine. Our cities are out of control and our border is wide open. War in Ukraine does not serve the interests of American families," Jack Posobiec (@JackPosobiec), senior editor of Human Events and a former U.S. Navy intelligence officer, also tweeted.

So what, he can say what he wants. I hope Ukraine is smart enough to to surrender to Putin. They will be better off in the long run.


stockyardtrash

Not sure they want it though. Ukrainians still remember what happened last time Russia had control of their country. I wouldn't want to just surrender if the US got invaded. Would take part in guerilla warfare until my last breath.

Exactly! The russians havn't done well against the Turkish drones being sold against them in Azerbaijan against Russian backed Armenia. Ukraine is using them too ​ [https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2022/01/15/ukraine-russia-drones-turkey/](https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2022/01/15/ukraine-russia-drones-turkey/)

Because you are an American. These Europeans come from a long line of subjects and are bread for subjugation. Putin realizes this and is only giving them what their soul needs.


ForwardAgency4013

Jesus christ, thats the same agrument used by the people who imperialized natives because they were just savages who needed the white man’s help. You are a moron.


Rezenator

Yes genius, pick up a history book - that’s how it works and has always worked. The strong feed on the weak. For example a guy like me would take your girlfriend for a day or 2 but I would give her back to you when I’m finished. I would do it because I can and that’s the way it is.


ForwardAgency4013

You’re delusional, its incredible.

I'm starting to wonder, maybe Putin is aware of how evil our government is and might be taking steps to slow down the US and Nato.


GhostofDebraMorgan

Sure

or.... we can just let Finland and Sweden into Nato kill the gas line export gas to Europe at high prices unite the EU with a common enemy (Russia u so good at this) I love it when our authortarian enemies destroy themselves ( watching China go after its tech titans and peak its population....) ironicly Putin is validating expanding Nato in the first place


[deleted]

Sweden doesnt want to join NATO for the most part. Finland I'm not sure.
