Despite all the rage in these comments, the base of the right largely views this as best possible outcome.
- redmajor12 2y agoSupporting peace?! That's a right wing cause now?
- wilg 2y ago[flagged]
- Cornbilly 2y agoWell, you just nailed why this line works on voters. Here’s the other one that works on that same crowd: “We need to fix the budget to close the deficit. We’re going to leave spending basically unchanged and cut taxes for the rich.”
- jandrese 2y agoSupporting peace via the 2025 version of the Molotov–Ribbentrop pact? It is very important for future world peace that Russia not be successful in this war.
- tdb7893 2y agoYou don't even have to go back to WWII, we let Russia take part of Ukraine in 2014 and look how that worked out. The idea that letting other countries annex parts of their neighbors is a recipe for lasting peace would be laughable if I didn't see it so often. It's like Charlie Brown and the football every time: https://imgflip.com/i/9lvwwu https://imgflip.com/i/9lvwwu
- disgruntledphd2 2y agoAnd before that, there was Georgia in 2008.
- ttyprintk 2y agoTheir Peace is Ukraine laying back and taking it.
- Glyptodon 2y agoWhy do some many people think enabling invaders is "supporting peace"? Chamberlainism used be so verboten.
- corimaith 2y agoBecause Russian shills, the Alt-Right have already burrowed deep into HN. Don't assume much of the discussion here is anything but in bad faith that feigns ignorance to exhaust opposing arguments. It's the classic gish-gallop in play.
- dang 2y agoWould you please stop breaking the site guidelines like this? I asked you once already: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43213985 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43213985. This is a divisive topic with a range of opinion. I don't see any evidence of shills so far but if you think you do, you should be emailing us at hn@ycombinator.com so we can look into it, not posting this sort of sinister speculation to the threads. It's the ultimate internet cliché, and has a degrading effect on discussion. Hence that guideline.
- Sohcahtoa82 2y agoI wish I knew how to respond to such ridiculously bad faith comments like this. Ukraine has no leverage to bring to any peace negotiations. The only possible way to get peace is for Ukraine to roll over and get annexed by Russia. You're arguing for the Bad Guys to win.
- horns4lyfe 2y agoGood thing the world isn’t a marvel movie
- akmarinov 2y agoAt this point that sounds like a good deal. Also pull everything out of Europe and make NATO worthless.
- simmerup 2y agoIn return we can replace all the McDonalds and KFCs with European alternatives, and kick out Meta and the rest of the tech imperialism. Don't pretend America gets nothing out of its role as global hegemon.
- consumer451 2y agoFrom the ashes of the fall of Pax Americana will rise Pax Europa.
- bufferoverflow 2y agoNot going to happen. EU has its own massive problems. And the countries are not aligned on the politics at all.
- consumer451 2y agoThat is not the vibe that I'm feeling over here at all. The USA aligning with Russia was a major wake up call here, and it is leading to solidarity the likes of which I've never seen. For example: https://old.reddit.com/r/europe/comments/1irgt3n/german_chancellor_candidate_who_is_likely_to_win/ https://old.reddit.com/r/europe/comments/1irgt3n/german_chan...
- bufferoverflow 2y agoNow do Hungary. Or Slovakia.
