The Ukrainian citizens and army are fighting like lions for their freedom.
Honestly, IDGAF about the overall global Who is getting richer than Who part of the discussion.
I honestly don't think that the people of Ukraine, the ones fighting this war, should be mentioned in the same sentence as Hunter Biden.
Ukraine citizens are not any less responsible for the corruption of their government than you are for the bull**** that is the Biden administration.
Standing up for America is not standing up for the cesspool that is Washington DC.
You keep trying to tie this conflict back to Ukraine corruption, but the war and the corruption are not the same.
See there is the critical theory in play. 1) Because you see them as oppressed their war efforts no matter how despicable are justified. My polish friend hates Ukrainians and says they are worse than Russians. 2) When you ask him about holodomor he quickly reminds you that Stalin, other than being godless commie and legit psychopath, was a Georgian, not a Russian.
3) Ukrainians are renown for backstabbing politically and not to mention nazi-adjacent. I mentioned Stepan Banderas name and it's like I mentioned some rapist that assaulted his daughter.
4) My point is that if NATO didnt have invested interest in Ukraine (biden crime family et al) would we really have the same moral outrage? Probably not. Eastern and southern europe are just cesspools of murderers and poverty.
And rereading your post I would like to comment on your last line. If you recall, Putin made his case to the Ukrainian people (and soldiers) that he intends them no harm or ill will but these action are for "political change." 5) So he intended to inact political regime change, civilian infrastructure and groceries continued to flow. Mayors that found RUS battalions at their gates would allow Russians to search for weapons and then return the town and policing back to the mayors.
They are not garrisoning troops as occupiers...that doesnt achieve the political ends.
I see we are finally getting to the truth of the matter / bias.
1) Nope. If they were raping young girls or invaders, I would be appalled.
2) Hitler was part Jewish. Does that matter at all?
3) Name calling again. I'm glad Russia is coming in to De-nazify Ukraine. You too? Didn't Poland have some Nazi sympathizers?
4) The cynical truth is, Ukraine has very important natural resources that are needed by NATO countries, including food and oil. The other issue is that Russia is invading another country. It's not like Kuwait had a golden humanitarian record. But, they had oil. There hasn't been a large-scale country-wide occupation of another country attempted since Sadaam got his ass kicked.
5) It is obvious as hell that the Ukrainian people did not want this. If they did, Putin's first plan would have worked. It didn't. Putin came face to face with a country that was not going to back down. Without almost unanimous support to fight the war against Russia, Ukraine would have fallen a month ago.
