Clearly you don't live in Europe, you aren't paying the electrical, gas and whatnot bill that this war caused. Get over yourself, your American lifestyle is only possible because a large chunk of your economy is only possible due to wars somewhere else.
Don't say that.
Not every German rages through the comments section spewing hate and racism like you are doing.
Some Germans even like to argue sensibly and discuss things rationally.
Ruscist might get misinterpreted as a racist term, if you do not know what it's actual meaning. (I also had to look it up tbh ;) )
Relax. I just pointed out that it might be misinterpreted. Not that it was racist or that those tankies defending that war stand correct.
Okay great, so you’re in denial about what’s going on around you. There’s a bigger picture than what you’re painting, I’m not saying Russia acted correctly nor that we shouldn’t blame it but Ukraine and the US aren’t saints either and profits are being made.
No one was arguing in favor of the usa in the entire thread. Anti-russia=/=pro-usa. Pathetic attempt at trying to derail the conversation
Hi @TCB13,
i will try to meet you half way. Clearly you disagree and might have been triggered by my first comment above which was bold in a sense.
i will agree with you that America also, as a country, has done some bad, terrible things abroad and so did many other countries ... but please tell me this : Do you at least put some blame on russia for the war in Ukraine ?
Of course I place blame, and a lot, on Russia. After all they were the ones to react. But frankly Ukraine has a ton of as well.
Coward.
