I am brown, so you can take your insinuation that I'm a white supremacist elsewhere. Try to address what I actually said instead of putting words in my mouth.

I'm not arguing about it on a humanitarian basis. The invasion of Iraq and subsequent forever-war is a huge humanitarian disaster that Putin may or may not beat.

I'm arguing about whether Putin invading a peaceful, democratic country in order to expand his borders is more or less justified than the US invading a hostile, murderous dictatorship.

Both are bad, but one is clearly worse.

I'm sorry but Ukraine was not peaceful before the invasion. There was extensive fighting in the east over years. External entities where funding various factions and the previous government was a puppet.

You paint Ukraine as some peaceful and stable European place when it just factually wasn't. If Russia invaded Finland I would agree with you but nut Ukraine.

The puppet government and fighting in the east were also because of Russia. You're just arguing that this war started in 2014 or earlier, and I agree with you.
