God forbid we use a little empathy, nuance and historical perspective in our opinions.
And I know I'm a bit out there, but perhaps the people in the disputed territories should get a vote?
- archagon 3y agoPerhaps the time to discuss this was before the 2014 invasion. I doubt Ukraine would acquiesce to it now.
- kibwen 3y agoRussia would be happy to put it to a vote, now that they've relocated over a million Ukrainians from the Donbas to "filtration camps". https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_filtration_camps_for_Ukrainians https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_filtration_camps_for... God forbid we react to the utterly inhumane invasion of Ukraine with the disgust it deserves. Stop trying to make cover for Putin behind a veil of insincere civility.
- bombolo 3y agobut… What if they vote russia?
- _kbh_ 3y ago> And I know I'm a bit out there, but perhaps the people in the disputed territories should get a vote? You mean just like the vote in Crimea in 2014 right? With a gun pointed at their backs under the supervision of the military?. There’s no way that, any vote like that is in anyway shape or form fair and will result in any outcome other than what the people pointing the guns want.
