this is a longer more boring way of saying "both sides are the saaame"

[–] lath 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

If that's your take on it, that's fine. I'm not saying it's wrong, but it sorta is.

When two parties meet at the table, it's about protecting their interests. This is how much "both sides are the saaame”.

In this particular case, Zelensky acts in the interest of his country and Trump acts in the interest of his personal fiefdom. But such cases happen all the time, for example EU and Orban or EU and Lukashenko. Two fiefdom barons leveraging the safety of countries for their own personal gains.

It ain't special. It's annoying, but these types of "leaders" have always existed. So get a grip and quit with the doomer shit.
