    Russia is not justified in invading Ukraine. I have zero interest in entertaining that notion.

    Keep licking boots.

      Huh? In the rare case you are not misreading my comments due to being embarrassed, you REALLY need to educate yourself on the subject.

          Ukraine is existential to rus*ia. The invasion was always going to happen, it was just a matter of when.

          You’d know this if you’d knew even a little bit of geopolitics over the region. Like literally the tiniest amount of education would’ve saved you all these messages.

            If you agree with Putin, yes.

            Hold on - am I talking to Putin right now? Or just his personal aide?

            Am I going to read about a Russian (that’s how you spell it, not Rus*ia) social media secretary being disappeared after embarrassing themselves online?

              If you agree with Putin, yes.

              Who I agree with is irrelevant to reality. Sadly, he never asked my opinion on the invasion. I’m just stating the facts here, facts about reality which does seem like the sticking point with you.

              And I don’t spell rus*ia with a capital r, they don’t deserve it.

                So, you do agree.

                Also, it’s not the capitalisation I’m disputing. And I don’t believe your posturing.

                    You seem to think his reasons are valid. Stop dancing around that. You said he “had no choice but to invade”. That means you think he was justified in invading.

                    He wasn’t.

                    I also “acknowledge the existence of his reasons” just the same as I “acknowledge the existence” of the reasons a child steals candy. They wanted it. The reason exists, sure, but it doesn’t make it a good or valid one.
