There was constant provocation for eight years leading up this war.
Russia had far more of a reason invade Ukraine than we ever did in either Iraq war.
We fomented an illegal coup in 2014, installed a puppet government hostile to both Russia and the ethnic Russian population. We trained, funded and armed Ukraine with lethal weapons. We teased NATO membership for Ukraine. We were running biolabs with deadly pathogens in them in Ukraine.
If Russia or China were doing all that in Mexico, WE'D, justifiably, would invade.
So, repeating the same lies over and over again isn't going to make them true. And, the VAST majority of the world knows the narrative you're spewing is lie.
But, get this through your thick skull -- there isn't ANYTHING Ukraine can do to get back the territory they have lost. Nor do the residents in that territory want to go back to being part of Ukraine.
Ukraine can only lose more territory. And, it will unless there is an unconditional surrender.

NOT EXACTLY... gray rock is just a reminder to ignore the negative commenters.
The gray rock method: is a tactic to deal with conflict and abusive, manipulative behavior.
The idea is abusive people enjoy getting reactions from their victims. This approach of Gray-rocking leads us to just skim, without response, ignoring “foolish” comments or memes which refuses a reward for negative behavior.
This system will calm antagonistic ‘detractors, dis-tractors, comments and memes. The intention for the ‘image’ of a gray rock is simply a reminder to BE KIND rather than to RESPOND IN KIND.
Ultimately, peace and kindness can be achieved on FR threads.
