Nobody is blaming the US for starting this war. We are all literally saying that an escalation like committing troops would escalate quickly into nuclear war and we are criticizing the US for taking even baby steps in that direction.
Compare that with you trying to dive head first into a nuclear conflict we don't belong in. Which weapons manufacturer or military branch do you work for?
You have stated multiple times in your comments that the US is trying to start a war. Several other people have called you out on this.
Nobody is buying your nuclear war propaganda. You're just trying to give cover to Russian aggression in an attempt to allow them to capture control of Ukraine.

Give me a break. We get it your guy Putin isn't doing so great so you want to make it easier on him to murder innocent civilians in Ukraine.
I don't know if you're genuinely trolling or just being plain ignorant.
I'm literally comparing how weapons assistance starts small and escalates to large scale involvement based on higher level comments saying something along the lines of
Context is king buddy. How does that whole quote go you glossed over of mine?
Paraphrasing because you didn't link to me saying that.
And the point still stands, I never said the us was trying to start a war
