Russia invaded Ukraine. They’re the evil ones. Saying “they’re both crap” is just lying. People do that because they think it looks better than saying “I just don’t care”.

Sorry, they are, and don’t forget the third pea in that rotten pod, Belarus.

Russia invaded Ukraine. They’re the evil ones.

So the act of military invasion is inherently—always and everyone—an immoral act, regardless of circumstance or the history leading up to it? You sure you want to stick with that?

Saying “they’re both crap” is just lying.

I think most Americans would have objectively called Russia and Ukraine "crappy" before 2022; were they lying then?

It's the fact that they're both crap — combined with the fact that they're thousands of miles away, far removed anything of importance in domestic America (beyond our stupid sanctions which caused fertilizer costs to skyrocket) — that leads me to say "I don't care about this conflict". That's the point, because there's much more important things to worry about in our own backyard.

The Border: Open.
Inflation: Skyrocketing.
FBI: Criminalizing police opposition.
US Intelligence Agencies: Rigging the election.
Infrastructure: Collapsing.

I can't express how little I care about whatever foreign conflict you're trying to distract me with right now.
