That's one weird argument to say that supporting a defender, unprovoked, from an aggressor is "meddling". It's meddling for your side, amirite?

The reason I'm said this because it sounds like "preventing Russia from prospering is a good cause", as if we're still at cold war or something. Probably not what you've meant, just pointing at possible confusion in interpretation. Helping a little guy, sure, but helping only to fuck the big guy is what Putin was rambling about in his justifications about war.

Lol, nowhere between the lines does my comment alludes to "preventing Russia to prosper". Russia is already prosperous if they want to without having to invade Ukraine. Corruption prevents them from being so.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
