We’re all biased. I think you’re right to assume anyone is. I just don’t stop pursuing more information on account of wanting to doggedly hold a single position.
It was more accessible than a telegram post. But Twitter went on a very significant banning spree near the start of the war against anyone that was posting significant content that made ukraine look bad.
My position on the war can be summed up as:
Ukraine had a significant nazi problem before the war. It has worsened significantly since, contrary to the media presenting it as non-existent.
The war was avoidable. But both nato and Russia could not come to terms.
Nato, Ukraine and Russia all fucking suck and hundreds of thousands of families are being thrown into a meat grinder over global power shit that does not help anyone. I couldn’t give a shit who is in charge of what, I can’t stand any of them, the lives are more valuable to me than states or borders.
This has nothing to do with genocide. But as with all wars there are war crimes being committed. The genocide angle is a convenient way to avoid the more complicated topic of the reason this war is happening, and it gives people a simple way to defend the continuation of the war by claiming that ending the war would result in a mass genocide (if that were the case they could just take up arms again when peace doesn’t work).
Anyone claiming this is what people want is full of shit there is no freedom. Don’t get me started on the conscription gangs that go around beating and kidnapping any able-bodied men they see on the streets. There’s as many videos of that lately as there were of the terror campaign waged near the start.
Only the US and Russia sitting down will end the war. The Ukrainian state has zero say in it. And neither do the people. Which as I keep pointing out are 2 separate entities that should be seen as such in every capitalist nation. Americans have zero say in what forever wars their rulers constantly get them into either. The sooner this happens the sooner lives stop being wasted and destroyed.
