Ukraine has had corruption issues for a long time. NATO countries should stop pussy footing around and go in and help them. Route the corruption and fight Russia. I can't imagine trying to fix the corruption that's been embedded in your country for decades and then suddenly Russia is invading you. Now you need to try to route out corruption and fight a larger enemy? I really feel for the Ukrainian people, it's been rough for a long time and just gets worse. Time to just wipe Russia off the map already, split the country up and give the land to the other surrounding nations.

    Oh, is that all? Just 'route the corruption' and then casually 'split up' world's biggest nuclear power? Totally won’t end in global glassing. It’s amazing how you solved a complex geopolitical crisis with the logic of a toddler smashing LEGOs.

    No not "just" at all. It would take decades on both fronts. Your argument might make sense if you didn't pervert mine by putting words in my mouth.

    It's clearly taken far lass than a decade for NATO to start coming apart, and it didn't even fight Russia directly yet. So maybe come down there baby Hitler.

    Yes NATO started coming apart because a corrupt leader came into power in the US. However that still doesn't mean that Russia should be invading and killing people in a foreign nation. Stop supporting murder.

    NATO started coming apart because NATO lost its proxy war against Russia, and the US is now throwing Europe under the bus while retrenching. It's an incredibly infantile world view to think that all this is a result of a single individual making decision unilaterally. Weird how fash like you didn't say a peep when the western installed regime in Ukraine has been killing people in Donbas for the past eight years. Stop pretending like you have some moral high ground.

    You are supporting the death of innocent people instead of alterior methods. You can call people that prefer peace fascist all you want, but you are the bad guy here.

    No, I don't support fascists murdering people in Donbas. That's what you support, that's what makes you a fascist.

    So you think because I don't support Russia murdering people I support other people being killed? That's a pretty ridiculous statement. Also you should probably look back at what was happening there because your memory of the situation seems extremely skewed.

Other people have already provided sources you could read instead of making a clown of yourself in public.

    You didnt quote correctly. You are the clown. You are supporting murder of innocent civilians. It's a good thing you don't get to make any decisions. Are you Mr Hegseth by chance? Seem to love killing innocent people with weak justification.

    Man, you are just itching for nuclear war aren't you? You really want a nuclear-armed transnational force with zero democratic accountability to go and fight another nuclear armed power that is currently fighting explicitly to prevent that nuclear-armed transnational force from expanding its control of the region? That is literally nuclear escalation. You gotta get out of the death cult you're in.

    Pretty sure Hitler's plan was not split Russia up and give it to neighboring countries. But whatever you need to tell yourself to make you feel better about supporting a country that is murdering its neighbors. Putin would be the Hitler in this scenario. Taking over other countries and killing their people.
