See, they’re totally kicking Russia’s ass. I mean, they are ANNIHILATING Mother Russia.
Let’s give them more money!!
Their sacrifice will not be in vain as they are dying in a great victorious assault on the Russian occupation. Even though they are dying at an alarming rate, there will still be plenty more of them to conscript to send in. As long as there is still a dollar or a euro of Western aid to be laundered, er spent on the valiant effort, we will stand with Ukraine until the triumph over Russian oppression.
The utilitarian thinking of liberalism allows them to consider the sacrifices for their usefulness to the ultimate purpose, and not as the tragedy that they really are. People are just numbers: consumers, voters, workers. And not the individual identifying numbers that substitute for names, but the counting and quantifying numbers. Any value of an individual is purely what they are useful for and on e they are not useful they can be eliminated. It is a blessing if you can be ignored instead of eliminated.
