Calling Ukraine corrupt at this point is like pointing in the desert and being shocked to see sand. Every single country in the world is massively corrupt, the whole covid bullshit proved it, if nothing else.
I completely get why nobody wants to send in troops and that's valid. Still, Ukraine isn't some backwater middle eastern oil farm, besides what resources and labor power it has, at this point it's a symbolic war to see if Europe will cow down to Putin's bullshit or manage to fight back.
To "facilitate" a protest, you still need to find people to support it and as someone who knows many people with deep routes in Ukraine, I can guarantee you that Ukraine would rather be West than ever go back East, alike with the eastern block countries who fucked off the soviets as soon as they could and are by far better for it, something that Ukraine wants, even if it's having a hard time achieving it. The sentiment is very strong there.
What you say is true, but if West can't unite against a fag like Putin, which fortunately it seems it has, what would make you think people would care for Taiwan? In war, public sentiment is very important, problem is, the public are morons and they would not have cared for whatever economic benefits Taiwan had, until it was too late and the island was long lost to the commies. Now, with Ukraine being a rallying cry against said tyranny, and would Ukraine somehow actually prevail in the war, you can bet your ass China will have at least a second doubt about attacking it, all the while those above the public who realise how important Taiwan actually is will have a much easier way to rally the world and its militaries to protect Taiwan, or at least lets hope so lol
That is just such bullshit, especially in this current context lol
How did you even force yourself to type this sentence out?
You're right. If Saddam had been tolerated way back ago, eventually he would have started some shit and the Iraq ar would have happened anyway, anyhow.
TL;DR: You should care in the sense that Ukraine is at least a mental staging ground for a war for Taiwan.
A dictator's a dictator, a partisan is a partisan no matter where or how.
