Speaking for myself, it is not my habit to argue, offend, or insult for the sake of it. There is a group who put forth link after link supporting Ukraine and US involvement in the situation.
I put out an open direct and specific question, several times, and that open simple direct question remains ignored. The *are* two sides to every story, at least.

Maybe, your comment was so respected the commenter is giving a thoughtful consideration for their own position .
It is possible to anticipate a quarrel, especially if they have been attacked previously. Then, as my college prof would say nothing productive occusr: “It just becomes a pis**ng match”
I gave up on trying to have rational discussions with them some time ago. If I got any responses at all, it was just yappy little insults and accusations of being a “Putin Puffer” or some such nonsense. There’s a weird little groupthink thing going on here.
I think they believe that if they yap down any questions or opposition, we’ll go away and they can take over the forum.
I intend to do my part in disavowing them of such notions.
