Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

hypocrisyndoesnt

Speaking of new words.

Whataboutism isn't absolution and I have nothing to be absolved of. I don't defend war mongering on behalf of any country. Unlike the replies in this thread.

Being against the Russian invasion of a sovereign nation does not make me a Liberal, I'm sorry that doesn't align with your narrative.

you get super pissed whenever somebody suggest you stop sending people to die for no reason

What's wrong with you? What makes you think I've sent anyone to die? For any reason? And got pissed about it?? Do you think I'm the Ukrainian president or something?

Russia gets bored and goes home for absolutely no reason

Yet another example of making shit up to fit your narrative. You could equally frame it as "Russia realises that invading another country is wrong and withdraws". Both as equally as unlikely as any of your suggestions. In all liklihood there will be some other solution that allows the main parties to save face and hopefully stops the killing. I'm sure you want people to stop dying too.

As for your last paragraph of barely cohesive babble - none of that is remotely accurate. I'm not a Liberal, I'm not as naive as some people to think I can suggest or predict a solution, I don't think you "can't" point out atrocities by the west - I'm just saying "but they did it first" is a shit reason to kill 1m people.

And why on earth would I need to choose one of your solutions to this monstrous invasion? My viewpoint is that the imperialists should go back to their own country and stop butchering civilians. I don't give a shit why they do it. I'd rather we got there yesterday and less people died...but if the only way to stop the aggressive and unjustified invasion is to drive them back militarily then I guess that's what has to be done. Because your options are shit.

Lmao ohh no one slight and obvious typo totally invalidates what I said.

I'm done reading these page long works of fiction. You need to chose one of my options because those are the only ones that there is a greater than 0% chance of happening.

Or you can keep screaming "Russia should abandon a two year long military campaign now that they're winning to appease whiny liberals"

As usual we'll be over here continuing to say "hey look it's exactly what we said was going to happen" while you tell us we don't know what we're talking about.

So what you're saying is that you are a war mongering donkey brained lib but you're slightly embarrassed about it? Really you should be more embarrassed, you're pathetic

Good luck with that loser, your little nazi pals have already lost

This you bro?
