    Not American, it's more that I want to see a minimum loss of life and quick end to the war, and right now Russia has overwhelming military superiority, and any actions to try declare total war by giving civilians and prisoners guns will just postpone the inevitable.

    Also seeing the way Ukraine has treated black citizens of my country, not allowing them to leave, is making me sick.

        I understand that as well, not wanting to lose your autonomy. Especially given the history. But I don't see a way to win at the moment, the geography of Ukraine prevents a prolonged insurgency against Russia. Insurgencies are horrible situations as well for most people. And without external assistance (which can't happen because that's a massive step towards WW3), it just seems like losing lives to delay whatever may come. Unfortunately it seems the fate of the Ukrainian people is out of their hands, which is obviously very sad. Maybe one day they can choose their own government without NATO or Russian influence, or at least minimal influence, but that day is not today.

        Putin and NATO are terrible, and I definitely do not support Russia invading.

          I really appreciate your calmness and I feel like I might agree. I'm just hoping on a miracle for Ukrainia or atleast a succesfull defense which leads to Russia agreeing to only annexxing the seperatist regions.
