Edit: if you’re downvoting me without a rebuttal, you’re part of the problem that I’m referring to – a complete dismissal of dissenting opinion on the war. If you disagree with what I’ve said, please comment why

People on the internet don't owe you a debate.

Especially when the prompt is a somewhat sanctimonious effort-dump sealioning "we should let Russia have Ukraine" as if its a reasonable liberal imperative, all in response to a stupid one-liner.

Thank you for the insults, I guess the point of my effort dump is moreso that I dont think it's really as black and white as people make it, I think it deserves some nuance. Which is a little ironic because you summed the whole thing up in six words! Haha

But no, I don't think it's very unreasonable to be against a war. You do? I do not support Russia. But I don't think the US should be sending military aid to Ukraine.

Edit: or, I mean against this war
