We’re just not keeping our head in the sand here. Ukraine is not taking back Crimea, or even the Donbas. The counteroffensive failed horribly. Cheering for more bloodshed isn’t going to make a better outcome in the end.
“cheering for more bloodshed.” Are you telling on yourself? You act like a counteroffensive is supposed to be fast and easy. It’s not, war is bloody and deadly and Russia is not going to call for peace until they achieve their objective of overthrowing the Ukrainian government or achieving a peace deal where they can keep Ukraine’s economic sectors
You act like peace deals are the same thing as calls for peace. They can still have peace deals to appear they want peace when they started the war in the first place back in 2014
You act as if a peace deal isn’t literally someone calling for peace.
Lmao what with the “infiltrators” that cannot be proven? The two oblasts have a large population that is ethnically russian. When a government that had spoken of cleansing russian influence comes into power, it is pretty understandable that that would foment separatism. At best we can prove Russia provided financial aid to separatists, and then later stepped in and negotiate Minsk I and II, which were both broken by Ukraine
Some Russians who maybe maybe not that lived in the area fought against Ukraine which means they wanted autonomy therefore it’s ok for Russia to annex and invade Ukraine
Quick question: did you know about any of this before today? Did you know about the Maidan Coup? Did you know about the nearly 15,000 casualties, including over 3000 civilian casualties, in Luhansk/Donbas between 2014 and 2022? Were you aware of the extensive reporting by western sources on far right elements in Ukraine committing crimes against humanity?
If any of that was news to you, do you think it’s ever appropriate to pause and reassess your position? Or are you just going to double, triple, and quadruple down on your fairy-tale understanding of the world with smug quips that don’t address anything of substance?
Yall calling for the continuation of the war are telling on yourselves. Otherwise you’d fucking be fighting rather than advocating behind a computer for others to die. Too scared to go to Spain and fight the fascists?
Oh man the the US union should’ve just given up the civil war instead of continuing the fighting. Think of all the good Americans that will die. Let’s just let the confederates secede instead of having a bloody conflict
You act like a counteroffensive is supposed to be fast and easy.
It’s September. Their window to make any gains in their counteroffensive has passed. Now they have to fight against the weather on top of the Russians.
The only progress the counteroffensive has made is in destroying Western materiel and getting scores of Ukrainians killed. They haven’t even reached the second defensive line yet. The total amount of territory retaken is like 100 meters of farmland. I’m calling it a failure because it is a failure.

So that was a fucking lie

Did these ethnically Russian people want to be apart of Russia?
They at least fought enough for autonomy that Ukraine saw fit to bomb them. Wether they wanted to be Russian is debatable

You think the country that has a national holiday to celebrate their Nazi era leader is the Union in this analogy?
And there the conversation goes. Ukraine is actually Nazi and it’s ok to kidnap and bomb the Ukrainian citizens because the country is openly nazi
Just using the trappings of sarcasm in your reply doesn’t negate the fact that I reported is in fact true. They openly celebrate their nazi history.
The conversation goes that way because there lies the truth.
The truth doesn’t happen just because you say it does. Can you link anything to prove what you said or do you just pretend your worldview is the truth
*brings up an odious historical comparison in a hamfisted attempt at an analogy*
*someone else brings up history relevant to the country in question*
“How dare you!?”
Nice false equivalent. Keep trying.
If you think it’s this important, why aren’t you volunteering?

Hey, it’s made a lot of money for the military-industrial complex too!
You can’t call it a wash like that when, back home, the almighty line is going up.
