@BrennanYoung "What if USA attacks a neutral country?"
There's no moral equivalence between a democracy attacking a dictatorship and a dictatorship attacking a democracy.
"USA occupies a greater proportion of Syria today than Russia occupies of Ukraine."
No, it doesn't. The US doesn't occupy parts of Syria. It helps Kurds. Also, the US doesn't have the ambition to annex Syria.
"In 2022, Ukraine was a defacto NATO member, full of NATO weapons, its growing army (the largest in Europe) being trained and groomed by Washington"
Keep crying, Ivan. Russia will lose its illegal and genocidal war of imperial expansion.
"and its ethonationalist ideologues were ramping up an ongoing program to ethnically cleanse the russophone Ukrainian population which began in 2014"
No, that's just Russian propaganda.
"Tens of thousands of Russian speaking Ukrainian civilians were slaughtered by the Kyiv regime before Russia began its SMO."
No, that's just Russian propaganda.
"NATO leaders spoke quite openly of strategically weakening Russia on the battlefield, removing Putin, and regime change in Moscow, with Ukrainians doing all the fighting and dying."
Again, Russian propaganda.
"Merkel and Hollande are both on the record admitting that the Minsk talks were conducted in bad faith"
Again, Russian propaganda.
"Ukraine was not in any way "a neutral country" after the 2014 coup, but a NATO proxy."
Ukraine is under no obligation to be neutral, just as Denmark, Estonia, Finland or any other country.
"The entire global south understands this perfectly well, which is why they do not support NATO in this conflict, and press for a peaceful settlement."
To the extent you're right, Russian propaganda is more successful in the global south. There's also no peaceful settlement to be had, because this is already a war, and when a negotiated peace is found, it'll be based on the violence of the war.
