  1. Have you taken leave of your senses ? (maybe that's ideobabble, not sure!) Are Americans who are against sending military equipment to Ukraine "selfish" ? They commonly use the excuse "my taxes pay for this", revealing they have no clue how presidential drawdowns work. It's the value of all the old (mostly retired) Pentagon junk the US military don't want anymore, i.e. retired equipment paid for 30 years ago before the selfish idiot whining about taxes was born maybe ? It's not new money being sent here, in fact the new money gets spent in the USA buying their military new stuff! Is it not selfish to not send us help and let the Russians wipe us off the map and rape and kill us all and steal our homes, toilets and washing machines when you have old junk you don't need that can be sent here to help us ? Just asking TIK. Not trying to be a smart alec. If they're not selfish what are they, un-empathetic or greedy maybe, or just complete and utter f**kwits ?😐🙃

  2. I have lived in Ukraine for a decade (Ukrainian wife) and I must thank you for keeping it real regarding the history. The far left and far right are both against us in Ukraine. As you said, the Ukrainians "welcomed" the Germans for like 2 days and then realised they were not a lesser evil. The far left always bring up Stepan Bandera, but fail to mention the Gestapo arrested him on like the 3rd day and threw him into a camp. That's hardly how you treat some mythical "uber" Nazi collaborator.

  3. I hear ya TIK. I too have to justify myself to the Putin boot lickers in western countries (i.e. "tankies" and "vatniks"). My answer to "how do I know I am right" - "I live in Ukraine and they don't, I can speak Russian and Ukrainian and they can't" etc, but, ofc, that's sometimes not good enough, but mostly works for my situation. 🙃
