Hence they just might act independently in thier own interest, and if it means invading another country too to protect their security, they might just do that. They did. If Putin did nothing, he probably would have been shot as a traitor. I am sorry for you. You betrayed your Ukrainian friends and relatives, and this beautiful city Kyiv by supporting brutal Russian agression and ignoring horrible crimes committed by occupants. You posted a lot of totally useless garbage that does not prove anything. It does not prove your moronic statements like "It's civil war in Ukraine". Why do post unrelated stuff about Austrian school in economics? Just to show how smart you are? I don't need any info like "Damn Ukrainian Nazis for 8 years killed poor Russian kids". Tommie makes a great job posting this garbage here. But at least Tommie got paid for his job. Do you?

I read your entire post and what I saw was a lot of unconnected rambling thoughts as though quantity makes for quality. I noticed your type of thinking when i was a young college student and it was one of the reasons i majored in psychology to try and understand it. I never have managed to do that completely. There seems to be two primary reasons. One is just simple lack of education. One has to learn how to organize one's thoughts. .But the other reason seems more structural where education doesn't help like with representative Paul Gossar, Ted Cruz, DeSantis, Senator Hawley, or most of the southern Republican senators. Trump supporters see a different reality and i don't really know the reason?? You are throwing a lot of irrelevant stuff against the wall hoping some of it sticks. Little of what you posted had anything to do with Putin, invading Russia. And by the way only a small percentage of the Russians were for the war in the beginning, so your theory he was forced to invade is bogus. You say things like the US has done bad things, or Ukraine has done bad things and on and on as though that has anything to do with Russia's invasion. It is irrelevant. The only thing relevant is the invasion itself! Yes, I am sure both the US and Ukriane have done bad things, but none of that excuses Putin's invasion of Ukraine, Ukraine was NEVER a threat to Russia, and THAT stands alone as his bad decision that will not only destroy Ukraine, but Russia. And you seem to overlook the fact of all the other horrible things Putin has done like invade Chechnya, another sovereign nation, or bullied both Georgia and Belarus, and invading Afghanistan, and Crimea and is looking to invade Maldova, or all the people he has murdered.. Putin has now completely shut down the free press. Have you forgotten all the demonstrations against the Viet Nam war and we were totally free to criticize it. Putin won't even allow the trapped children in Mariupol to leave. The Russians are murdering thousands of civilians and even children! He is a blood thirsty killer. But I think you explained yourself well when you said your clan also debates you. I am guessing you have always had trouble communicating with people. And I feel bad about that, but what you are supporting is evil!
