The Russia - Ukraine Conflict

You think this is about "picking a side" like people are carefully weighing the moral fortitude of Ukrainians and Russians on some sort of imaginary scale?
This is about being against powerful nations starting wars, invading countries, and acting like imperialists, dumbass. If Ukraine invaded Moldova I'd feel the exact same fukking way.
Well I look at their history and say I have no pony in the race regarding what happens to their future. They are at the crossroads to fight for their future. Good luck. They not gang as former Nazi simps.
You look ridiculous being so passionate about them.

Russia encircled Kyiv and Mariupol just before the negotiation of tomorrow... They will put pressure on the Ukrainians.
....... This war is getting so wild.
There’s going to be a large grievance to settle between Daegestan/Chechnya and Ukraine when this is over.
How am I "so passionate" for them? I've done literally nothing in these threads except correct misinformation and say war is bad. That's a lot easier to explain than why you're so invested in pushing pro-Russia misinformation regarding a conflict you supposedly don't care about at all.
My interest in the issue has jack shyt to do with Ukraine other than the fact that there are people living there. My lot in it is solely in hating war and hating powerful nations that start wars.
They just keep scrolling over the real experts saying Russia isnt using their full might… its a circle jerk as usual

BP pulling out of Rosneft
Good god
Putin, what did you do???
I stopped going to BP after the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. I see they still are all about the money by any means necessary. The only reason they pulled out is the threat of losing business.
To be fair the MJ smileys, alone, make this board interesting.
Especially
speaking of which why haven’t we seen any new ones related to this conflict?
They are not fringe
they are deeply integrated into the Ukrainian military; look up the Azov Battalion
also Ukraine has a history of Nazi collaboration

The Great Paper Chaser
After doing a simple search into how we got to this point, I honestly don’t blame Putin for doing this.
He asked multiple times including 2008 and last year for assurances that Ukraine isn’t park of NATO. If Ukraine was part of NATO, Russia would be a sitting duck in the event they had beef with a NATO member. Ukraine provided a neutral buffer between them and the west. This could’ve been resolved by making Russia promise not to invade Ukraine if they were kept out of NATO.
But NATO blew Russia off so they took Crimea. This was the next step. The U.S. and NATO dropped the ball on this because they didn’t think Putin would take it this far even though history proved otherwise.
And once again this is part of Obama’s legacy because he dropped the ball first.
