Irish rock star Bono praised Ukraine's fight for "freedom" during a performance in a metro station in downtown Kyiv Sunday, where the U2 frontman also issued his own prayer "for peace".

From the platform of a Kyiv metro station, the 61-year-old rock icon belted out U2 classics "Sunday Bloody Sunday", "Desire" and "With or without you".

"The people in Ukraine are not just fighting for your own freedom, you are fighting for all of us who love freedom," said Bono during a break.

And the money, where is all that money we have sent Ukraine in the last decade?
It stopped Putin from being in Kyiv.

You are a true believer, I’ll give you that. But one day, I hope, you realize you are being lied to.

I still do not believe Sean Penn has shown up to engage in battle.😋

Sure,

Biden cares about democracy and sovereignty.

The news just wants you to be informed.

And these celebs are celebrating freedom.

You said they don’t have freedom in Ukraine. Are you going to get hyper about a curfew in Ukraine during invasion?

Instead of letting U2 freely speak for themselves about why they are there - go ahead and speak for them.
So why are they there?

Here's exactly what I said. What's not true?

political opposition is outlawed in Ukraine

only state run media is allowed

Ukraine is one of the most corrupt governments in the world

Jill Biden and Bono in the same week, preceded by Nancy Pelosi and Angelina Jolie. Kudos to Bono for going and singing.

Who isn’t lying to me?

It’s all about money and power. It’s always been that way.

The truth exists, but we humans deal in half truths, perspectives, and in the end twist things to suit us. When we decide to twist things to the point to where we begin killing people for some benefit (power and money), it’s a tragedy.

Because the Euros benefit from this war also (they want Ukraine in the EU) they are behind it at least for now 100%, so at least they aren’t ankle biting us. But if things go to shit in a real way, or in 10 years when we are still dealing with the reverb from the shit storm we just started, they won’t be there for us (at least not 1/2 of them).

That is not "exactly what you said".

Here is EXACTLY what you said:

Freedom you say? You do know that political opposition is outlawed in Ukraine, right? And that only state run media is allowed, right? And that Ukraine is one of the most corrupt governments in the world, right? Maybe you don't understand the word.
Why edit exactly what you said? Liar gonna lie.

Note you are saying there is no freedom to celebrate. Which in free parts of Ukraine is a lie.

Your thought process is all f*ed-up. I practically spoon fed it to you and pointed out exactly what I said. Now you're gonna just ignore that and spout the party line. How about addressing my points?

Sure.

And Madonna wants to meet with the Pope because she cares so much about her faith.

These are publicity stunts. Are you really that naive?

Their concern in reality is sucking up resources in an area that is stressed and has scarcity...

These “shows of concern” are all fake.

Sean Penn is another one that “cares so much”: https://www.news24.com/news24/penns-rescue-efforts-fail-20050904

Not all celebs are assholes. It’s just the 99% of them which gives the rest a bad name.
