    Why should they? Ukraine isn’t part of NATO and Russia decided, by choice, to start a war with Ukraine to steal their land and that war continues to this day.

      Please educate us. What international law was violated by attacking military and logistics facilities that support the aggressor army, on its home turf?

      As happy as I am about Russia finding out after fucking around, I agree it’s sad we’ve gotten to this point where this shit is normalized. In better times, this would’ve been a massive international shitstorm of an incident that everyone would be yapping about for months whether it was right or wrong. Now, it’s just another wednesday and by tomorrow we’ll have moved on to the next international crisis that nobody cares about anymore.

        Bro this is business as usual, 1940-1990 were a weird golden era of relatively little fascism and unwarranted war.

          Well, there was plenty of domestic facism and regional war around the world. Just not the anglosphere.

        Yeah its fucking horrible and its going to require a massive worldwide crisis or shock or whatever to get our world back on track. At least thats how its been throughout history. The wealth accumulation makes everything more and more unstable until society literally ceases functioning and then you get war, revolution, etc.

        Its so sad that we cant fix our problems without resetting everything. Societal cancer is real.

        Yeah, but to be fair, the Russian invasion itself would have also triggered more pressure on Russia and we wouldn’t be here in the first place. But yeah, sucks the world has devolved to re-normalize colonialism.
