Do you actually think that it doesn't matter what happens in Ukraine?

I've heard this bullshit for the last 50 years. From Vietnam dominos to Iraq WMD to Syria ISIS. And after we have disappeared from that war - NO, none of it mattered. IN fact, our betters in DC have been the CAUSE the chaos.

So does it matter what happens in Ukraine? NO. It will only matter as we progressively insert ourselves and the consequences pile up.

All wars accomplish is to replace one baddie with a new one.

Remove The Kaiser, Get Hitler.

Remove Hitler, Get Stalin.

Remove Tojo, Get Mao.

It does matter. Vietnam was not a war involving Russia or China, at least not directly. So, apples and oranges. In Vietnam, the people were fighting against each other, north vs south, so, no real distinction between friend and foe. The people in S. Vietnam were not so much interested in fighting. I know, I was there.

In Ukraine, the people there don't want Russia's takeover, not Russia's rule. The people are actually doing the fighting to remain independent. Not that same as what was happening in Vietnam.

The 'bullshit' as you put it, is real, and Russia has been an aggressive country for, it seems forever. They have invaded and taken over other countries in the past, and their ambitions have not changed.

China is looking at what happens in Ukraine, and are actually assisting Russia. You think that's for benign reasons? If you do, then you're an imbecile.

Europe is helping Ukraine. So, do you think it doesn't matter to them either. Russia is not going to stop with just Ukraine, and one domino at a time means that, eventually, all of Europe is in danger of becoming controlled by Russia or at least uncaring.

Where would that leave the U.S. Do you honestly think that the ultimate goal by China and Russia it not to render the U.S. helpless and eventually surrender to their ideology?

Simple minds cannot think beyond the present, and cannot understand cause and effect, while the enemy is constantly strategizing and looking at the next step, until "checkmate!".

So, the BS actually resides in your court.
