i actually agree with a lot of wht ur saying. the coup was meant to make ukraine natos frontier in its eternal quest to destroy russia. this has been the meta of geopolitics since ww2, everyone knows this song and dance already. a preemptive invasion is 100% justified (why putin didnt do it in 2014 is an eternal mystery.)
what i take issue with is the lack of skepticism from some pro russian posters. this is geopolitics, take the rose tinted glasses off. the putin regime doesnt give a fuck abt the donbass. the same way they dont give a fuck abt south ossetia and abkhazia from the 08 invasion of georgia. and for tht matter, the same way the clinton regime didnt give a fuck abt kosovo when nato bombed the balkans. and sry, but the world today is wht it is. stop living in the past. idc if X nation used to own X territory. tht doesnt justify war, if it did the entire world would be on fire. russians should accept some responsibility for a change. ukraine is a fake country created by communists? well who put the communists in power to begin with? who murdered the tsar and worships the rotting corpse of lenin? (in the same square as saint basils cathedral, fucking disgusting.) who starved ukraine yet stll think they have a right to rule over it? (oh thats right, the ussr...couldnt of been poor innocent russia. funny how russians put tht mask on/take it off when it suits them.) okay, catharsis over.
ps: i respect the "homeland" concept and who should own what. but im not gonna white knight for russia, not until they acknowledge the sea of blood that goes up to their knees.
