For someone who isn't defending what Russia is doing you sure have a lot of the same opinions as the people who are thrilled about what Russia is doing.

> I think it is very very unkind of you to assume I support what russia, or anyone else for that matter, is doing

Then maybe you should act like it. Cause you certainly act like someone who 100% supports what Russia is doing.

> nothing could be further from the truth, I would prefer nobody kills eachother, but at the same time, I also dont want to get in the middle of what other people are doing in this case. but indeed, the truth does come out, and about a magnificent 100% of times everyone lies about war, why should I magically believe in what the governments that has a track record of total lies regarding the wars they want to fund/start/participate in says. THIS time its different, im sure....

I think the Ukrainians would prefer that too, but someone brought war to their land so they are responding.

To be neutral in a conflict between an aggressor and a defender, is to be inherently for the aggressor.

If someone was being raped on the street, surely you would do something (like call the police) you wouldn't just ignore it and walk away with "I also dont want to get in the middle of what other people are doing in this case" would you?.

> It is not. It is clearly a proxy war, and the list of things I gave would provide far more value to me, and I suspect many others. Why do you presume to think you have the right to my labour for YOUR causes?

You are probably paying less than 1.2% of your tax for America to help here, to help a country defend its borders from an incursion, to defend a countries people from a brutal attempted genocide, rape and torture.

I understand not caring about your neighbours and the "fuck you, got mine" attitude is very prevalent in America but this is a pretty extreme lack of caring about your fellow man.

i wouldnt know, but it is definitely possible to not like what is happening in Ukraine, whilst also finding the comedian dictator to be a disgrace, and simultaneously not want to fund any kind of fighting in ukraine.

> Then maybe you should act like it. Cause you certainly act like someone who 100% supports what Russia is doing.

Im sure there are many commonalities. You probably prefer to breathe air, so do I, and so does mr putin.. But please provide some concrete examples.

> To be neutral in a conflict between an aggressor and a defender, is to be inherently for the aggressor.

That is simply not correct, and I suspect you know that.

> If someone was being raped on the street, surely you would do something (like call the police) you wouldn't just ignore it and walk away with "I also dont want to get in the middle of what other people are doing in this case" would you?.

To mr putin: please stop attacking ukraine. to the UN: please tell putin my sentiments. to comedy dictator: "your" country is being attacked.

Okay, called police.

> I understand not caring about your neighbours and the "fuck you, got mine" attitude is very prevalent in America but this is a pretty extreme lack of caring about your fellow man.

Not from America, not in the US. You dont seem to understand that this issue is far far more complex than some random guy being attacked in the streets. Pretending anything else is at best ignorance. but even asserting your accusation of "fuck you, got mine" to be true, all that means is that you may accuse me of not caring about my neighbor, and while that isnt true, thats ALL. You went a fair bit further and accused me of supporting what goes on, not giving a shit about rape/torture/killing, and surely you must realize that this is an accusation that is completely unfounded, and a personal attack that probably stems from a very emotional and irrational anger towards anyone that does not do exactly what you feel must be done.

Heres a factoid: mr Putin has done less to harm me than people who would want me to pay for a war I am not involved in, Hell, you just accused me of supporting raping/torturing/killing innocents in the street. Putin has not done that to me.

So yeah, your personal attacks and insults have failed to sway me, and I remain with my original thoughts of staying out of it

Wow you’re towing a Russian propaganda line again. Surprise surprise you breaking out unsubstantiated claims about Ukraine to try and make them look bad to dissuade aid to them.

FYI if your no in America you’re likely not paying anything into this fight that makes any difference in anyway shape or form to your taxes.

> Im sure there are many commonalities. You probably prefer to breathe air, so do I, and so does mr putin.. But please provide some concrete examples.

Your post history is littered with talking points straight out of Russian propaganda, points that you continually raise with zero evidence.

> To mr putin: please stop attacking ukraine. to the UN: please tell putin my sentiments. to comedy dictator: "your" country is being attacked. Okay, called police.

The comedy dictator stuff is what really shows you for who you are. Where is any evidence of this at all? All you do is repeat Russian propaganda like a robot.

> Not from America, not in the US.

If you’re not from America that any aid to Ukraine likely makes up a tiny fraction of a percent of your tax.

> So yeah, your personal attacks and insults have failed to sway me, and I remain with my original thoughts of staying out of it

Unsurprised really just like how I’m sure if your where around during WW2 you would be waving your “why not peace with hitler” sign.
