Just seriously, imagine as a 'patriotic American' looking at a situation of a country invading to take over another because they simply want to take them over and thinking 'yeah I side with the invaders'.

Imagine as a 'patriot American' listening to the brave solders on Ukraine's Snake Island saying 'Russian warship, go fuck yourself' instead of surrendering and thinking 'Yeah, I side with Russia'.

Imagine as a 'patriot American' looking at the leader of the country refusing to escape the country to live another day and instead to bunker down and fight for the independence of his country and siding with the other side of that fight.

Insane.

The Ukrainians fighting tooth and nail against an invading country seem like fucking badasses. Russians attacking seem to either have no idea they are there to take over a country, or were fed lies by the Russian state controlled media about why they are there in the first place. I see no reason why anyone outside of Putin and his circle of friends would even give any rats ass. The whole world seems opposed to this bullshit. Russian citizens will feel the worst effects of the sanctions and devaluting of the Russian currency. All for what, Putin's sad little ego? For his personal quest to restore the USSR or whatever the fuck it is?

Seriously, fuck Putin. I am rooting for Ukraine.

You have to look at it from the perspective of people who, when given options, will pick the worst option every time.

The only people that have any excuse to be on the side of Russians are Russian citizens that don't know any better. Outside of that, you really have to be a knob licker to think Russia is right.

its human nature to never admit you're wrong. half the country has spent the last 5 years eating the shit of a giant orange moron, much of which was pro-russian shit; most people who have spent literally years doing that aren't going to change their minds even when its clearly wrong.

I'm huge into Russian music, sports etc and have a lot of Russian people in my Insta feed as a result. None of them are for the war. Not one. A lot of the musicians cancelled tours because of this.

The literal only people who want this are Putin and his cronies, and Lukashenko. And hell, even some of Putin's government jumped ship when the invasion began.

Russians are fed bullshit via their traditional media of TV/Newspapers. I forgive people who fell for the propaganda.

Russians as a whole seem like a good people, but the leadership of Russia is corrupt and terrible.

It seems to be mainly the crowd that watches people like Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens that are posting the pro Russia shit.

If you go on Right wing leaning reddit subs, there's just as many conservatives that are pissed about the horseshit coming out of Tucker's face hole.

That's good news. I can't imagine any ACTUAL fucking die hard 2nd amendment type American looking at this situation, without propaganda to taint it, and thinking Russia's the good guys. Seriously.

When someone makes one dumb post on purpose, you're trolling. When someone makes thousands of dumb posts over decades, those are your honest beliefs. No reason to disbelieve someone who wants to show their true self.

The disturbing part is they themselves don't believe what they're saying they're willfully spreading misinfo so their side wins, I still kind of don't understand it but I think it boils down to oh it's against the Democrats wants and values so it's not our side essentially, so yes, they would literally support Hitler because Democrats would not like Hitler

Imagine being American and thinking your opinion actually matters on eastern European wars unless you're a military commander

What is funny is how many people who didn't spend more than 20 minutes reading about this are all the sudden experts on the subject.

It is one thing to empathize with a country getting invaded, it is another to read a Wikipedia article then jump on the internet and argue with folks for validation
