Russia slaughtering Ukrainians through out the last 100 years by forced famine and conffict isn't a view point. It's historical record. Objectively there is a bad guy here and a good guy.

That's not what you're saying though. You're sharing videos of a guy that talks about how Russia annexing Ukraine is a good thing, and rooting for Ukraine's collapse. Surely you're not naïve enough to think Russian occupation = no more killing because the evidence is strongly against that

Yes this war/illegal invasion about continued Russian dominance of Ukraine and belief it is not a real country or even cultural identity.

So Russia invades Ukraine and targets civilians and it's up to Ukraine to stop the killing?

You truly are special.

I’m sorry my view point triggers you so much.

What is your peace formula?

To think this situation is best served by continuing its current path is ridiculous.

Negotiate an end to it that both sides maybe don’t like.

While not achieving its objectives, he noted Kyiv’s success in degrading Russian forces. “The Russians are in pretty rough shape,” he said. “They’ve suffered a huge amount of casualties. Their morale is not great.”

Guys like him think that just because they take literally every contrarian view as gospel that they're big thinkers. It's so boring.

And what would you propose that is?

It's easy to suggest a "peace" solution, but this is about a history between 2 groups of people that goes back many generations. And in most of that, there has been 1 group acting particularly aggressive to the other.

This conflict isn't about a war. It's about people trying to live & survive with 1 obvious aggressor trying to take that away just to prove a point.

And you can't even call them what they are, or you get put in the sin bin.

Don't respond to him with the thought that he's genuinely looking to engage in a discussion. He's not. He's here to #### all over the thread like he does in every other thread.

Because the mods here have apparently decided that traffic is more important than being a serious place. It's the same reason we have a bunch of fake "insiders" all over the trade discussions threads. "It's fun!". No, actually it makes the place look like a joke.

They've been letting people on this site regurgitate authoritarian talking points for a long ass time.

Trolls getting an insanely long leash around here is nothing new, but it's definitely infuriating.

God forbid you tell them off though, or even worse, ####ing swear.

I’d block him except I find him entertaining. In a twisted sort of way.

Naw, he's just a hyper partisan with horrible media literacy. He believes whatever turds Fox feeds him, and posts it here, truly thinking it's smart stuff.
