World history is replete with examples of conquerors grabbing lands from indigenous people.

I get your point, but for hundreds of years up until August 24, 1991 Ukraine was part of Russia. If the Russians had known that Western intelligence agencies working with Soros and NATO would be manipulating the newly formed government there... they never would have turned them loose in the first place. So, this has not been about “indigenous peoples” losing their land. It would take a while to go into the details but the possession of Ukraine went back and forth many times until Catherine the Great gave the area a bit of stability by annexing it in 1783.

Ukraine is all about corrupt oligarchs, NATO, beloved President, and corrupt deep state officials all trying to get a piece of the pie at the expense of a bunch of hapless souls in Ukraine who mostly have never had any desire to get caught up in this mess.

Indigenous:
originating or occurring naturally in a particular place; native:
“coriander is indigenous to southern Europe” · “the indigenous style of architecture”
SIMILAR:
native
original
earliest
first
aboriginal
initial
ancient

(of people) inhabiting or existing in a land from the earliest times or from before the arrival of colonists:

Can you explain how that liberal trope fits Ukraine? They evolved there, or were the first humans to inhabit that area? Just curious.

Wow. A grownup in the chat. Great post. This sovereign nation B.S. gets old.
The old saying...”It ain't yours if ya cant keep it” is as old as history.
