Use this community to share news articles.
I tried not to make rules for this community but y'all wylin'. I'll keep it quick and to the point:
-
Mildly biased headlines and articles are fine, but please do not share opinion pieces or strongly slanted articles here.
-
Reporting content that does not break those rules prohibited.
-
Baiting and drama farming is prohibited. If you're not sure whether or not you're in this category, ask yourself if what you're about to post or comment adds to the discussion of the topic at hand, or if you are trying to get a rise out of someone, make bad-faith accusations against one's character, etc. There's some leeway here because I have a sense of humor though, so don't let this rule scare you.
-
Endorsing or supporting extrajudicial, nonexecutive or nonwar violence is prohibited.
-
Using slurs is expressly prohibited.
-
Using the Poisoning The Well fallacy to attack sources shared in a post is presently not allowed (this rule may change in the future, and isolated instances will not subject you to a permanent ban)

This is the best argument in favor of the war, and the one that was sold to me at first. But after how long the war has gone on, it doesn't seem to me like Putin would even live long enough to capture all the land he allegedly wants to, and even if he did, that he would use that land to attack larger nations or the US.
But we are not Ukraine. Ukraine should keep fighting if they want to, but it's not our war. We only benefit marginally from the war's existence, it is not particularly in America's best interest to participate in it.
I knew you didn't care about those "grieving relatives of killed Ukraine soldiers". A war should "benefit" us?? Psychotic mentality. Some people help others and defend against bullies simply because it's the right thing to do...
"If you REALLY cared about us, you'd make sure this war lasts forever!"
Nah homie. I care about Ukrainians soldiers like I care about civilians in the Congo. I feel bad for what they're going for and want it to end but I don't want my money going towards them.
The fact that you think that I can only care about Ukranians if I give them my tax money is...interesting...
