    Good. We shouldn’t be funding any wars. Has nothing to do with us. I don’t want another world war. How is this a bad thing?

      I don’t want another world war either. That’s the point of defending Ukraine. Germany didn’t invade the USA. They started with Austria, Czech, Poland, Denmark, Norway…if NATO existed at this time, at which of these points should NATO have stepped in to defend soil that wasn’t theirs?

      Because the ultimate result was that the war came all the way to the US anyway, and no amount of appeasement was going to satisfy the appetite of an aggressor.

        All this war has shown is that Russia’s fabled military is a joke. They haven’t even been able to defeat their teeny tiny neighbour in how many months?

        Russia isn’t starting a world war because they know they have literally zero chance. If they were to launch a nuke they know that Russia is wiped off the face of the earth in minutes.

        Equating this war to how the Nazis started a war is insanely disingenuous.

          Might be hard for you to understand but their is an actual difference between a reason view that doesn’t align with my own and an obvious troll post.

          Like the people saying were funding nazis that are commiting genocide, or the guy saying all the republicans that voted against this ammendment are far-left extremists, are not reasonable positions made in good faith.

          You wanna know what’s anti-war? Driving the aggressor out of the normally peaceful country it is invading. Letting Russia win will lead to more war as it continues invading other countries as they’ve explicitly planned.
