I just want to say that the EU was not breaking up trade with the USA, nor supported the underdog in the last 50 years of US invasions. Now these hypocrites cry

I just want to say that the EU was not breaking up trade with the USA, nor supported the underdog in the last 50 years of US invasions. Now these hypocrites cry "poor sovereign state got invaded for no reason but Putin being bad person" for months in a row.
- hagbarth 4y agoI mean. You are assuming that the underdog is always in the right here. Or that it's hypocritical to support the underdog in one conflict, but not the other, which is just blatantly bad reasoning. Also, at least where I live, the same people are not in power. They can be against Afghanistan, Iraq _and_ Ukraine invasions at the same time.
- cies 4y agoAll arguments made to why Ukraine should be supported (sovereign country, up against the big bad guys, etc.) except for "they are white" (which as on the media in my country) are also true for the invasions of the US of the last 50 years. Only then we supported the US. > You are assuming that the underdog is always in the right here. I do not assume anyone is right. I understand that in geopolitics "might makes it right". I do not pick sides either. I just do not think my govt should piss off Russia by supporting Kiev: my problem is the shitty policy of my govt. And oh boy did they have some good propagandists ready to to teach us all how bad Russia is. Tax payer's cash put to good use /s
