The ukrainians are being forcibly conscripted and banned from leaving the country. That's not bs, they do not want to fight. If they wanted to fight, forcible conscription would not be necessary. Banning people from fleeing forcible conscription would not be necessary.
You said russians had not held peace talks, I showed you to be a liar. You are now moving the goalposts to an unfalsifiable claim of "russians aren't yearning for peace". This also ignores the sources I have provided you.
Why did you call me comrade? We are not agreeing on anything, and I have given no indication of being either russian or a communist. You have also not called other users "comrade" until they started disagreeing with you. This is kindergarten level shit, 5-year-olds are too mature to do what you're doing.
I never said the ICC. I said every US president is wanted for war crimes in several countries. Name a US president that has not commited a war crime.
On what grounds is he stupid? If the coup had support, where was this support as it was happening? Where was this support after? Where were his compatriots? You keep just making shit up. Also work on your reading comprehension
I never said they weren't."

See how easy that is? Moot

That's because there isn't one. However Putin is.
In retrospect do you think invadeing Ukraine was a smart or stupid thing to do?
We were arguing about ukraines willingness to lead this war. What does Russia have to do with that? You keep bringing up Russia, as if that in any way justifies NATO supporting a country that forcibly conscripts its citizens and bans them from leaving. You keep bringing up Russia, even though your original argument was that "ukraine wants to fight". It's pretty obvious ukrainians in fact do not want to fight, which was your initial argument. You have since then attempted to move the goalposts time and time again.
Are you denying the US has commited war crimes? Yikes.
I think it was an overreaction, but looking at the way the war has been going, it's pretty obvious Russia is seeing a lot of success. NATO is having equipment issues, the US and Europe are well on their way into a recession and a multi-polar world order is emerging. Wether this was worth it for Russia I cannot say.
You have yet to answer my questions. If you cannot do so, then this discussion cannot continue in good faith.
Every country will conscript during times of war, even NATO. However, NATO has 500,000 active troops Your argument is moot.
It's not stupid, it's an overreaction. Ha, good one. The US is far from a recession. Where do you come up with this BS?
The ukrainians have to be forced to fight, they do not want to fight. We are not discussing the normality of this praxis, we are discussing wether the ukrainians want to fight, which it is clear they do not. You keep trying to move the goalposts, you keep failing to engage with the central argument. How is this a moot argument just because forcible conscription is not uncommon? Why are you this obtuse?
News, studying first-hand sources, fact-checking, that sort of stuff.
Anyway you have failed to answer any of my questions, it's clear you're not arguing in good faith, so fuck you dumbass, you are a pox on this earth, and you are just too stupid to realize it! Your lack of intelligence is like a plague that drags down the entire human race, and it pains me to see the damage you cause. It's a shame that you can't wrap your mind around anything, for your foolishness will never be removed. If your reading skills were as abysmal as your lack of understanding, then I'm sure you would never recover from the ignorant state you are in! You, oh dumbass, stand before me here now, heedless and lost in your ignorance like a pig wandering in a mud wallow. Your mind is like a bramble patch, full of thorns and briars to impede any thought that might enter. Your ears are like a hollow log, unable to comprehend the words and sound from without. Your soul is like a broken bone, unable to feel the pain of enlightenment or to walk a path of righteousness. Like a fly buzzing around a dead carcass, you flit between folly and foolishness, lacking the knowledge and discernment to move forward. Your eyes are like a broken mirror, unable to see the truth and knowledge that lies before you. It is my sincere hope that one day you will come to know the power of literacy and embrace the joys of reading.
