      Me too. I’ve opposed every US war that occured in my 50 year life except this one.

            For one thing, this is a violent land grab. For another, this the effort and will of what… 50 countries? Vs about five: China, Russia, Iran, North Korea, Venezuela. And those 50 countries are on average much more democratic than Russia and it’s allies.

              Lol imagine thinking you have an iota of democracy when you can’t even get a broken leg fixed without dying from debt. You can’t even be unemployed without it being a literal death sentence.

              Imagine thinking China, Russia, Iran, North Korea and Venezuela were not made into the countries they are today through the direct interference into their political systems by the some of the 50 ciuntries you mentioned.

              You’ve been brainwashed. The world stands with Russia on this and is opposed to America’s war in Ukraine. The most provoked war in living memory.

                The UN has consistently voted against Russia on this. There are a handful of authoritarian that back Russia but globally support for Ukraine is unparalleled.

                  These are mostly countries that are bullied into voting this way by the US. It doesn’t reflect real sentiment.

                No, the world really doesn’t stand with Russia, if you have any understanding of international relations you would see that. Even the countries that have voted to support Russia are represented by relatively authoritarian governments.

        It’s infuriating to me to see Democracy Now reporting get downvoted. 🤬

          Democracy Now! Is a 501©3 non-profit news organization that was founded in 1996… What are you talking about? They are one of the oldest and one of the few non corporate news agencies in the country…

          But keep getting your news from black rock backed sources I guess.

          YouTube hosts videos. It doesn’t directly create content of it’s own. The video in question, which merely happens to be hosted on YouTube, was produced by a media organisation, Democracy Now.

          No, base your “worldview” on the echo chamber in these Ukraine threads, they all learned their “worldview” in Crusader Kings 3. Some of em in “Mein Kampf” it would seem.
