I would not. I wanted this war to end before it started and I lement that many of my friends and family have now become blood thirsty warmongers. They see it as a chance to finally be a part or something fashionable and state sanctioned. An opportunity to openly hate where so much other hate is forbidden.

I worry that we’re blindly and foolishly waking into a preventable WW3.

The nationalism that's become out of vogue in the West is finally expressable through Ukraine. "Slava Ukraini!"

Still, no war in ruzzia, as in mikkergp's nonchalant statement.

That there is a difference between ruzzia and Ukraine and ruzzia is denying this is the whole point of the affair.

Beside, you can't bring the war to ruzzia, everybody knows, they will get away with their war crimes. They have nukes and they give a shit, plain and simple.

Realpolitik.

Oh, I missed that, I read it as war in Ukraine. I'm guessing calling it the 'war in Russia' is an attempt at political correctness. Similar to calling Russia 'ruzzia'. I think my brain automatically converted both to the point I didn't notice either.

So, there is a difference. Hopefully, some strong emotional biases have just affected your brain and not also your I.

I find it difficult to follow your statement. Is that German grammar? I presume you're suggesting I'm under the influence of Russian propaganda.

Actually I suggested, you demand a more rational approach regarding the ruzzian invasion of a souvereign Nation and at the same time imply things because of emotional bias.
