What I have learned: * Russia has already won the Ukraine war * Which NATO started * A lot of people in the West think that Ukraine should surrender * Also Ukraine was the world’s main provider of CSAM * Also Ukraine is exploited by the West but if they can unite with Russia then their economy and everything else will finally be alright It’s literally like a bizarro world and everyone is over there agreeing with it. I’m genuinely confused by, who even are these people (what is the mixture of Russian bots / Russian-aligned ordinary people / confused Westerners / some other explanation.)

I am genuinely confused by hexbear too

Is it a site for queer people or for beanis lovers?

    Not just why only Ukraine, but Putin has been at the head of Russia for over 25 years. Before Ukraine the only military interventions Putin got Russia involved in were in places that were in Russia (Chechnya and Dagestan). I guess there’s Syria but even libs don’t see that one beyond just aiding Assad.

    If Putin wants to conquer Europe he sure is taking his sweet time.

        imagine my complete and utter shock as I read the wiki page on the russo-georgian war only to find what finally brought things to conflict was NATO considering Georgia for membership

        Not Georgia, South Osetia, a internationally unrecognized state which nevertheless maintained de facto independence since 1991. And it wasn't even an invasion - Georgians started ethnically cleansing Osetians and Osetians called Russia for help. Pretty much humanitarian intervention, especially that Georgians were also incited by west. Entire thing ended way less bloody than Ukraine because Georgians weren't terminally nazi brained and backed off. Unsurprisingly, Russia didn't invaded entire Caucasus and west Asia after this, nor even any parts of Georgia.

        Fun fact: it also ended the very popular and decades old Russian genre of "Georgian jokes" which portrayed Georgians like incredibly foolhardy and incredibly tough people - because entire Georgian army withdrawn when a single spetsnaz brigade shown up.
