The Ukrainian government should have been more mindful of Russia’s security demands if they didn’t want to get invaded. its not fair but thats what you have do when there’s a nuclear-armed major power right next door. they could have probably gotten away with an elected zelensky government and their little civil war in the east as long as they disavowed nato, but they played tough with Russia and now their people are paying the price. the Ukrainian government is not blameless for the outbreak of hostilities.

The Ukrainian government was manipulated by NATO (who also funded and armed the Neo-Nazi groups), which is really unfortunate for the Ukrainian civilians who did nothing wrong.

most Ukrainians are not fascists anyone who believes that is dumb. the images of this war are horrifying and of course the common people with no say will pay the price. I just see a lot of people (not here really) demanding unwavering support of Ukraine’s position when its Ukraine who was acting irresponsibly (with western encouragement)- continuous violations of Minsk accords, blowing off Russian demands. Keep poking a guy with a stick and he might punch you in the face, though Russia is still definitely the aggressive one here still. But westerners should not be wanting to involve themselves in this conflict besides ending the war as quickly as possible.

The west could have avoided this war completely. No love for Putin, or this war. But also your opinion is shit.

The people of Donbass didn’t deserve to be shelled over the last, what? 8 years in violation of Minsk 2 either.

This just seems like bad advice in general , some of my friends are people who’s family history involves “escaping from communism” stories, should I burn all my bridges with them over something I can easily keep to myself.

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. --
