    Didn't know American democracy was under threat in Ukraine.

      it's like Saving Private Ryan, except that it's not Ryan but American democracy that gets lost behind enemy lines. and also there's a bromance between the americans and the nazis in this one.

    What are you doing to help?

    Absolutely fuck all because I'm not going to be cannon fodder for Nazis.

    imagine not only being delusional enough to think america has "democracy" but that fighting for azov battalion has anything to do with saving it

      Designation for which side you're fighting for. Blue for Ukrainian, White for DPR/LPR and Russian. I believe.

      To which it's extra fun to say "blue lives splatter" and guess whether or not you mean the nazis or the pigs

      it's to identify combatants as ukrainian because russians and ukrainians use the same weapons gear and uniforms for the most part

    somewhere out there is a funny combination of familial brainworms which consist of:

    a nasty reactionary father being proud his “vegan liberal” son is finally fighting for the white race but a tug of cognitive dissonance causes seething because said “vegan liberal” son is helping Brandon cover up the big Hunter Biden leftist conspiracy in ukraine

    next 4th of July they finally get along because at the end of the day they both love america

    I don't believe they actually have vegan culinary specialists in the frontlines. Sounds like some PR firm created this to get more sympathy and support from middle class brunch libs

      Unless he's making authentic vegan chicken Kyiv, since anything made outside the non-combat zones is technically just sparkling soy protein.

    American democracy isn't in the Ukraine my dude.

    Not because it's on the other side of the planet, but because it's a myth.
