    Humanity’s favourite past time to trying the best to rip each other apart in any ways. On the battle fields of war but also in a comment section. It is hilarious to watch.

    Y’all are fucking clowns for defending the Russian invasion of Ukraine and saying that Ukrainians should just give up.

    How about all the Russians getting forced in to a war just to die? Where is the criticism of Putin and his regime and the atrocities that he commits? Oh, that’s right, it doesn’t fit the narrative that mother Russia is superior to everyone else and deserve to take Ukrainian land.

    It’s pretty obvious that you’re just fascist. It’s going full circle in here.

    Fucking clowns 🤣 Clowns living in a clown world is what you are 🤡🤡🤡

      and saying that Ukrainians should just give up.

      I’ll try to argue in good faith and ask you - what evidence (other than this post, apparently it doesn’t convince you) would be needed for you to admit that we don’t want to fight, and it’s Zelensky’s regime (with West’s support) that forces us to (and effectively genocides us)?

      How about all the Russians getting forced in to a war just to die?

      It’s also bad. Russia is not turned into a mass prison which people can’t leave and where they are kidnapped on the streets though, Ukraine is.
      A man in Russia can leave at any moment.
      A man in Ukraine is automatically a prisoner, he can only escape.

      Where is the criticism of Putin and his regime and the atrocities that he commits?

      Here it is: I condemn Putin for the atrocities he commits. I regularly hear from my friends and family, who are still in Ukraine, about Russian rockets/drones flying over them.


      You see, I’ve tried to argue in good faith with you, despite you supporting Zelensky’s fascist regime that tries to kill me and people I know. Now, can you do the same? :)

        It’s horrible that Ukrainians and Russians are getting forced in to a war that neither wanted to participate in. I hate wars and I would have preferred to see everyone live in peace. But reality is not like that.

        Putin is trying to take your homeland and you’re doing nothing to prevent it. You’re not even in your own country… I find it pretty rich that condemn Putin and his actions while also being okey with it happening as long as no one has to fight for Ukraine.

        Who should fight for their freedom if not the people that live there? I would defend my homeland til I die if it meant my country would remain a democracy and be free dictators and fascists.

          You didn’t answer my question “what evidence (…) would be needed for you to admit that we don’t want to fight, and it’s Zelensky’s regime (…) that forces us to (…)” :(

          Putin is trying to take your homeland and you’re doing nothing to prevent it.

          What do you mean “take”?
          What prevents me from living on the land Putin has taken?
          Or let’s be more exact - what prevents people in Crimea, Melitopol and other cities/regions taken by Putin to continue living there?
          Or maybe you want to say that the life there is worse? Then please define in what way. Is it being able to freely move? Is it not being a subject to mass kidnappings? Is it being able to speak your mother tongue without being discriminated for it (or worse…)? Is it being able to form political parties? Is it being able to vote for your president (even if you consider the elections rigged)?

          You’re not even in your own country…

          I cannot return there, until Zelensky’s regime is done. If I go there - I won’t be able to come back. I’ll be imprisoned like the rest of the country. I’ll be sooner or later kidnapped and sent to die.

          Who should fight for their freedom if not the people that live there?

          Fighting for freedom is fighting against Zelensky’s regime, he is the one taking the freedom away. And it’s extremely hard to fight him, as long as he has western support.

      nice hasbara

      mother Russia is superior to everyone else and deserve to take Ukrainian land.

      Are you seriously getting your viewpoints about what Russia wants…FROM THE CIA? that’s fucking insane. Here’s what you should do. Find any translation of any spokesperson of Russia. Two famous ones are Lavrov and Maria something. Both of them are very intelligent and speak clearly.

      edit: Also Russia doesn’t target civilians. There’s a thing that’s commonly used by the US and Israel called atrocity propaganda. Look it up. Russia is taking casualties but it’s not that much. It’s approximately 1 death to 20-30 Ukranian deaths ATM.

      Some people dug too deep into the reality tunnel, any common sense has been left far behind.

      Obvious reality check: Ukraine has some nazies. Also

      a) they’re not their top problem. That being, you know, invasion and occupation by an authoritarian dictatorship.

      b) point me at the country that hasn’t. What, you want China to invade Germany because AfD has 30% in some provinces? Let people sort their shit before you call for a foreign boot ffs.

      (Not even touching the fact that the only reason Russia isnt seig heil’ing right this second, is that little Pu is afraid of any popular movements, including fascism. But it’ll get there, give it a couple years and/or heart strokes)

        Dude. We (the US) couped Ukraine in 2014. They’ve been killing tens of thousands of their own Russian-speaking civilians in the two independent republics. We have created THEIR CIA (SBU) and they perform acts of terrorism on Russia, at least try to, on at LEAST a monthly basis. Denazification means elimination of Banderaist factions in the gov who can essentially tell their president what to do backed by threats of violence.

          The fascist regeme you’re imagining simply doesnt exist. There wasnt some “Donetsk ethnic cleansing”, this were separatists (armed with Russian weapons and backed up with russian volunteers) trying to kick off federal troops and secede. Which, you know, isn’t great. You could possibly go “both sides are bad” the 2014-2021 conflict and have some good points.

          In what universe does the 2022 russian invasion translate to anything else as obvious f-ing conquest and how much of a bootlicker do you have to be to support it??

            Let’s not forget that most countries also have constitutions. The citizens constitutional rights cannot be overshadowed by draft. Therefore forcible totalitarian draft is not legal. Here it’s problematic because sovereign legal institutions are non existent in Ukraine and lets admit that in many states legal institutions would crumble when defending citizens rights against violent governments.

    @yogthos For any western liberal that is cheering on this bloodshed on behalf of Western capitalist powers, I invite you to jump on a plane and pick up a rifle.

    This conflict has only two outcomes. A peace deal through negotiations as with any war in history, or WWIII.

    Sadly, the American stance “we will fight Russia down to the last Ukrainian” is the reality. Once the smoke clears, if there was a victory, it will be the property of Western interests like Black Rock.

      I think Israel is the only entity that is doing basically everything possible to kick-start WWIII. As the Ukraine/Russia stuff is mostly being contained to Ukraine, Donetsk, Luhansk, Crimea, and parts of Russia. But Israel is openly starting new fronts in Palestine and Lebanon. Along with attacking Iran, Syria, and Yemen. And they are most certainly the most likely entity to be the next government to use nukes in war. The doctrine of kill everyone to not allow capture is far more scary than what has been going on in Ukraine.

      Not to say that the forced conscription and arrests of draft aged (or even physically able) men isn’t fucked (it very much is). But even the neo-Nazis in command of Ukrainian forces aren’t taking that level of official doctrine of death to their own side. Their doctrine is more “you fight or die” (but not "we will also kill you if you are caught by the enemy) which isn’t exactly “shocking” if a nation is on an actual defense from inside their borders. Israel is invading other nations and acting at more of an ISIS level of fucked up while yelling about how they are “just defending ourselves.”

    That’s one take. Recently a bigger focus has been on how these men are avoiding their duties as citizens to protect their country, way of living and freedom. But draft dodging is fine from a pacifist point of view.

    Better that than being lured into a war as the Russians do.
