I guess the alternative you have is a bunch of bullshit about biolabs and other nonsense "forcing" Russia to invade. But then you'd have to produce literal Russian disinformation to come close to proving it, which wouldn't resolve the problem of Russia's war preparations on the border going back an entire year (or more) before the invasion. Was Russia aware of the biolabs more than a year ago? Why wait to invade then? And why use all its trolls to lie to the public that no invasion would occur?
What it is, God knows, but what I will not do is side with the current occupant of the Whitehouse, nor the thieves in both Houses, nor their Pretorian Guards in the FBI, CIA, IRS, ATF, etc., ad nauseum, nor any of them that are pressing NATO up against the borders of Russia, nor firing American Himars into nuclear power plants pretending Russia is doing it.
