Texas is a part of America. Ukraine is not a part of Russia. Ukrainians have have a language and culture different from Muscovy.

[Mariner]

Ukraine was part of Russia for over 1,000 years, and Russia has over a million soldiers buried there.

Only in 1991 were they given artificial statehood.

Texans have a language and culture different from Washington.

[Allegra]

Translation: Russia needs a time out to rearm and rebuild so it can try again, because the Republican party stand firmly opposed to freedom and supports tyranny. Money is the only thing we care about. Please send us more.

Straight up DU nonsense right there.

Kiev had cathedrals when moscow was a swamp.
Please do tell me about this texan “language”. And please do go to kiev and tell ukrainians they are russian. Let me know how that works out for you once you get out of the hospitL. If there us no difference between russians and ukrainians then this talk of ukrainians oppressing russian speakers is bunk because there is no such difference according to you.

“Texas is a part of America. Ukraine is not a part of Russia. Ukrainians have have a language and culture different from Muscovy.”

Yes, and Ukraine is not part of America and they aren’t even an ally. America has a language and different culture from Ukraine. They are not us and our countries are no where near each other.

Spot on.

No one was making the argument that ukraine is part of america.

What is “artificial statehood”?

[Mariner]

You are a Ukrainian Partisan and Loyalist.

“You are a Ukrainian Partisan and Loyalist”

I will take that as a complement, but I really dont deserve that honorific.

But my question remains, what is a “artificial nation”?

[Mariner]

“what is a “artificial nation”?

I can think of two examples: Palestine and Ukraine.

BTW, Ukraine and the US have wildly divergent interests. That makes you anti American. US interests are to abandon Ukraine and lift all sanctions on Russia. Those are REAL interests.

Do not become an enemy of the American people.

[dominusobiscum]

I asked for definition.

[dominusobiscum]

I would say an American supporting a country with nuke missiles pointed at the same would make one Anti-American.

[lodi90]

Sadly, some conservatives are so broken and defeated all they can do is day dream that Russia and its Anti-American allies will destroy their political opponents in US for them. If that means our children owned by the Chinese Communist Party so be it. They couldn’t care less.
