I just sit here like wtf? what the fuck is going on?? .. The tech forums are still pretty good sources of info and fairly devoid of GD'isms, but GD itself has been a mixed bag of as you said support, but also trolls, memes, and general level dislike toward a variety of subjects and individuals. I think what we're seeing now is simply the result of years and years of HYPER-POLARIZATION by both sides of the American political isle. It has become standard practice now for both sides to take contrarian positions for the simple sake of being contrarian. As a Conservative, it's been frustrating to see those on the right take up Russia's mantle simple to stand opposite of the I have no doubt in my mind that if this war had happened under Trump, both sides of the isle would singing a different tune.. simply to be opposite of each other. Frankly, I didn't really have a position at the beginning. I wasn't informed enough, so I didn't randomly choose a hill to defend. Weird, huh? As time has gone on, and things I've learned and researched, I am in the "Help Ukraine bleed Russia for a better future for everyone" camp. No matter what involvement the US and the West had prior to the invasion is largely irrelevant to me, at this point. Russia invaded Ukraine. Again. They stole land, pillaged and plundered, killed, and raped an innocent people. Fuck Russia. Slava Ukraine! You know, call me old fashioned or naive, but this plays a big part in it for me as well even though I try to keep the focus on the geopolitical strategic significance of helping Ukraine oppose Russia and how it benefits us directly. The US isn't perfect but through our history we've been a force for good, helping and defending the helpless, because we were forged from tyranny ourselves. It's what we do. The normal people are the ones that see an old couple in a car torn to shreds by autocannon fire or a father and son's last words in a drainage ditch as they bleed out next to their dead dogs, have their blood boil, and want to rain hellfire down on someone that would do something like that to innocents just trying to break free from a century of tyranny and live their lives. The fucking weirdos are the ones that sociopathically say, "Not my problem, Europe can deal with it." Sometimes good has to sack up and deal with evil, no matter the cost or what it takes. We're good and we have the power to back it up, ergo we do it. The minute we don't, we're no longer the good guy. I'm sure the nitpicking paste eaters, if any of them had the sacks to poke their heads out in this thread, would sit and say something pedantic like "Do you want us involved in every conflict around the world trying to save everyone?" (insert SpongeBob retard meme). My response is, "If we had the means, I absolutely would love to see us eradicate evil where ever it resides around the world. If I could Thanos snap evil fucks all the way from Xi and Putin, down to the smallest Third World warlord selling sex slaves, from existence, you're goddamn right I would." |

Russian defense policy in the east long since gave up the thought of going toe-to-toe with China conventionally and just went to nuclear deterrence. Russia has also completely (and verifiably) stripped all conventional forces from western borders they claim to fear invasion from (i.e. Finland) thus proving their invasion fears are a lie. |
