[...] there is nothing good to fight for here.

But there is something evil to fight against here: Resurgent Russian imperialism!

The Russian Federation - America's preeminent geopolitical enemy - must not be allowed to win.

Other than that: Your non-sequitur references to child mutilation etc. invoke the "False Dilemma Fallacy."

Namely: My desire to see Russian imperialism tamped down in no way lessens my concern for other injustices going on in our country.

Regards,

Russian imperialism?! Good lord, Russia is barely outside its borders. They couldn’t be imperialist if they wanted to, at least for another generation. Frankly its been an era of American imperialism, with some emerging Chinese imperialism. The Pentagon’s accounting error is 10% of Russia’s yearly defense budget for crying out loud. I think the shores of the USA are still safe if a deal is made in Ukraine, and some young lives will be spared to boot.

Kinda like-warm I’d say.
Choose a day to hug-a-Russian then choose a day to hug-a-Ukrainian.
