Sure, they allied with the US. But they are right next door to Russia, what the fuck you expect? Them to submit to their historical oppressors? I get you are ml, but come on man, we both know better. There may not be any good guys here, but Ukraine defending itself from imperialist attack is justified. I think.

They did not "ally" with the US, we overthrew their government in 2014 and installed a puppet regime specifically to use as a staging point for a proxy war against Russia.

Be that as it may, how does that justify colonizing Ukraine by Russia?

It is a proxy war, almost by mutual agreement, to perfect their weapons.

But you cannot honestly blame ukraine for defending themselves, and allying themselves with the only ones able to supply them with the means to do so, no? Honestly.

You're confused about how a direct threat from the US on Russia's borders completely justifies a military response? Skill issue, get smart

Bullshit. The US isn't invading Russia or the other way around, I refer you to weapons of mass destruction. Don't repeat that propaganda with me.

The US overthrew the Ukrainian government in 2014 and installed a puppet regime, then immediately used that puppet regime to start a war. Sorry if reality is inconvenient for you, the most effective propaganda is always the truth.
