Gee...lookee there...an uninformed rant. And what is that goal?

[-] robot_dog_with_gun@hexbear.net 71 points 1 year ago

two sentences is hardly a rant and there are plenty of quotes from american officials and armchair generals about how this war is great because it's degrading "our enemy" without costing american lives.

[-] Rapidcreek@reddthat.com 5 points 1 year ago

I believe that degrading the army of one of the US greatest geopolitical world rivals at the cost of roughly 3% of the DoD budget is money well spent. In that there is no US blood is an added advantage. The Ukrainians are fighting this war for their own purpose, to reject tyrannical rule. That's something that's happened for a millennium, including the American revolution.

The US didn't impose this war, 100,000 Russians invading did. As France helped the US during the revolution, the US helps Ukraine.

”This is a US proxy war.”

”That's an uninformed rant!”

”This is a US proxy war, and that's a good thing.”

Proxy War...

a war instigated by a major power which does not itself become involved.

You are saying that the US had a role in instigating this war? What was it? Sounds like Putin's language to justify his stupidity

The coup that they orchestrated in 2014 with the help of Nazis and Victoria Nuland. https://truthout.org/articles/the-ukraine-mess-that-nuland-made/

Sure hated to see that Putin puppet go, didn't you. That happens sometimes. I hate Nazis, especially Chicago Nazis.

Yeah, I know the reference which you here use as a snide dismissal in order not to engage with the argument presented to you. You would have been one of the guys storming the building.
