We are supporting Ukraine. We are supporting a country that seems to have a very serious problem with racist ideology. In the other thread we're discussing racism and how terrible it is, yet if I attempt to make the point that we are actively supporting a country that has actual Nazis in its military and police, I'm the asshole. Based on Russia bad.

Do you care about all the other wars happening around the world? How about Yemen, who are being attacked by American and British weapons? What makes Ukraine more important than Yemen? What isn't happening is the media ramming Yemen down your throat, so you're not thinking about it on a daily basis. But they want you to think about Ukraine.

What's happening in Ukraine is fucking terrible. Russia is terrible. Putin is terrible. And drumroll please... we are fucking terrible. The UK, USA, we're precisely as bad as Russia, because we use war as a means to an end. The only difference between USA and Russia is that USA is much, much, much stronger and therefore doesn't get its ass kicked.

I cannot tolerate any hint that Russia is justified in this, or that Ukraine is not justified in defending their land.
For clarity, Russia are not justified in attacking Ukraine, and Ukraine is justified defending its territory. And I'll even add that I hope they win.

But we are completely unjustified in supplying weapons to Saudi Arabia, and we should not be supporting Ukraine unless we're going to support literally every country in the world that gets invaded or attacked. Starting with Yemen.
