    Welcome to ‘Murica.

    I’ve seen GOP idiots in my local news comments try to somehow convince others that Ukraine is stealing money from “us” that could be used to rebuild after our fires, etc, and that they deserve whatever they get.

    People are fucking morons.

      It ain’t only freedom loving 'Murica unfortunately and the money argument isn’t as bad, as some others are. For example, saying that Russia was forced to attack in order to defend itself or some other deranged crap. Sometimes it’s hard to believe that these people are saying this out of their own will, and not because they are receiving money from the Kremlin.

      Edit: typo

        Oh the reason I stated there definitely, absolutely isn’t nearly as bad as others, not even in the same neighborhood, but it’s probably the most stupid reason I’ve seen because ‘Murica has to represent. Apparently any reason you can make up is good enough to equate Ukraine and Russia. It’s hard to believe they’re not on the payroll.

      It’s incredible watching them suddenly become doves. Like it’s in America’s best interest to see peace in Ukraine, and Ukraine is the one that needs to roll over to make that happen. Somehow, Russia leaving is never mentioned.
