It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow chapos. Wreckers/CHUDs are allowed. If they aren't banned yet then report them, don't post them.

Not a lib or a troll, genuinely want to understand your perspective. Are you saying that when a country is invaded that it should bend over and let it happen because war is bad and resisting means the war continues?
I'm well aware Ukraine is a troubled country, filled with corruption and problematic nationalists, even if from my understanding they have far less power now than in 2014.
What would the ideal outcome be according to you all? Ukraine should give up all the Russian speaking parts or cede the whole country? As shit as Ukraine is Russia seems even worse.
Yes. Some countries are not worth fighting for. The Nazis in should not have fought against invasion at the end of the war and instead surrendered. Some are. The USSR needed to fight the Nazis because losing means genocide. Ukkkraine doesn't need to fight Russia because losing means not getting to ethnically cleanse Russian speakers from the donbass.
Oh yeah totally, they don't need to fight Russia, they should just give up and let Russians do what they did in Bucha to the whole country. Of course Russians are known to peacefully incorporate conquered territories with no harm done whatsoever to civilians.
Some countries might not be worth fighting for, I guess that's true. Some other countries are always worth fighting against though, and Russia is one of them.
Go back to the cold war, grandpa.
