OK. So why should Russia get to take it over?

Absolute strawman. I never said I supported Russia either, I’m just saying Zelensky isn’t Jesus himself having descended from the heavens to preform a heroic feat by protecting the perfect, blameless Ukraine from the evil, despicable Russia run by the devil himself. But of course, WW3 fanatic liberals like yourself will still come to the conclusion that I must fully support the invasion and that I hate Ukrainians.

"Just because I criticise Ukraine, doesn't mean I support Russia's narrative. That's typical of you warmongering liberals who believe that Ukraine is Jesus and flawless. Stop using strawmen!!!"

I’m not even going to comment on this, you’re too far-gone at this point.

Alright, you know what? I will comment on this.

Yes, I believe criticizing Ukraine for something completely unrelated to the war doesn’t necessarily translate to supporting Russia. Yes, saying so IS a strawman since you’re pulling words out of the other’s mouth. No, it doesn’t help to “debunk” me by repeating this but between quotation marks. And people who come to the conclusion that criticizing Ukraine means you must support Russia are recipients of propaganda from the bourgeoisie to cause another WW3 so that Lockheed profits can go up, whether knowingly or unknowingly.

Please, if you’re not going to argue in good faith, at least learn how to make your arguments *sound* somewhat convincing.

Nobody is causing World War 3! Putin is losing to Ukraine, he already knows that taking on NATO as a whole isn't going to be any easier for him.

So why is it wrong to support Ukraine despite their internal politics? We have states right here in the United States that have harsh laws against unions and yeah, that's an ongoing fight, but if Russia invaded them, would it make sense to make fun of people supporting the defence of those states?

“Poke fun”?

Oh wait. Of course wanting to reasonably criticize a country instead of mindlessly rooting for whatever it’s doing is “poking fun” at it. NATO was created by the U.S., but I see you liberals “poke fun” at it all the time (not to defend the U.S. in any way, of course).

By the way, I love how you’re defending NATO as if its 2003 campaign against Iraq so the U.S. had an excuse to imperialism it never happened, with it only being the tip of the iceberg.

.... If you're denying that your meme is poking fun at people then what are we even doing?

Honestly, idfk what I’m doing. I’ve posted a meme showing that maybe Ukraine isn’t the holy land war propaganda-fed neoliberals say it is by showing a reprehensible aspect to it and, instead of wanting to engage in a more nuanced discussion in good faith, you resort to ad hominem.
