The implied contrast between “Euroleftists” and the US is pretty sketchy as well.

There is a difference. I don’t see the USA (and by that I mean the general public, not the institutions) is as far gone as Western Europe. We’re not at that stage yet.

But in terms of Ukraine, to intervene is to essentially do the Western European’s job for them. Its their continent, why are we still babysitting these countries? If they want to sit it out, then fine, Vladimir Putin gets what he wants and will be emboldened to advance. They want to fight, go ahead, its about time.
But ideologically I just cannot see how conservatives have a dog in this fight or any preference for the outcome.
