I would be very engaged in the Ukraine Russia war when we are equally (or a little) engaged in the pain and suffering & deaths and wars that brown and black people globally face, daily; until then...
ENOUGH: Putin is a tyrant and Ukraine is corrupted and it is horribly devastating that innocent people are victim..so when we examine our western role in getting us to this war, and why...
No, Americans do not want a war with Russia, no, the world does not want WW III, no we want to live our lives and get out of this hell hole you same elite technocrat bandits, you high crime government thieves sucking on the teats of the tax payer’s treasury, to fatten yourselves, that you put us in with your cooked up fake fraud COVID pandemic and your Fauci-Birx lockdowns lead by the 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse Bourla of Pfizer, Bancel of Moderna, Francis Collins of NIH, and Fauci of NIAID…these 4 who delivered plague and famine and pestilence on us, their fraud pandemic and their lockdown lunacy that killed more than it helped, and your fraud Pfizer and Moderna injections that are ineffective and harmful that we were mandated to take else we could not put bread on the table…thats the shit we are interested in, not your cooked up Ukraine Russia issue…its real, and people are suffering and dying, but that’s their issue, sorry, we learnt from Iraq etc., you sent our boys and girls to die for a lie that again, you cooked up **cough cough Colin Powell cough cough**, so, this Ukraine Russia issue is not my problem…there is blame all sides in this, yet Putin is a monster but there is blame all sides and I have felt day 1, this could be solved with a settlement and negotiation, you do not let a country be flattened…are the Clintons gearing up to return e.g. Haiti? To grift and graft off of destruction again? This is how you must think…there is serious money in permitted or facilitated ‘destruction’…read about it. These ‘dark’ people do not care about any Ukrainians or Russians killed, only their pockets. And certainly will send your daughter and son to give their blood, not theirs.
we did not cover other wars and conflicts the same way…no, why not? seems when you are black or brown, to the west, the pain and suffering is not the same...not equal…you got to be Ukrainians and look like them…then you get coverage and incessant support…we are giving sick people ammunition to future hit us with, by our own biases…there are just too much disinformation and lies in this Ukraine Russia issue, I do not know what or who to believe, just that people are dying and innocents are.
start looking in the mirror! and yes, and as Andrew says, the Overton Window is presenting us with cracks and crevices, we keep pounding away…we have opportunities to hold the beasts accountable in proper inquiry…proper inquiry, we take them, and we punish them legally, all who did wrong.
When I listen to Putin speak, I am impressed. When I hear Biden speak, I am depressed. How many presidents have we had in the US who graduated at the top of their class in chemistry, has a PhD in economics, a degree in law from St. Petersburg, and plays chess? The image of Putin is grotesquely distorted by the US/British propaganda bureaus and US corporate media who need an enemy to distract the American public from the disaster that is the Biden administration. We should not fall for the mind control efforts of the deep state and the media giants. Americans do not deserve a president who insults the leader of a foreign country by calling him a killer and publicly advocates regime change in Moscow. This gutter language from a guy who barely graduated from law school and leader of a country that has killed more civilians in foreign countries than Putin gives new meaning to the word hypocrisy. If Putin were a tyrant, the public opinion polls from Poland would not show that his approval rating averages above 70% and went up 11 points after the US announced sanctions on Russia followed by Russian military recruiting stations flooded with new applicants. Russia is 1100 years old, barely survived three invasions (Bhatu Khan in 1240, Napoleon in 1812, and Hitler in 1941). By comparison, the US is a punk kid and wet behind the ears, trying to bully the rest of the world. A divided and polarized country like the US has no right to tell another country how to manage their affairs or provoke a nuclear power by fomenting coups along its border which created the mess that is Ukraine today.
You are missing the point on this war and how the West is supporting it. They don't CARE about the Ukrainian people, no matter what skin colour they are. They are using Ukraine to rage a war against Russia. They are using Ukraine and its people for their own gains and own agenda. I am shocked that you don't see this and that you believe their narrative that they care about them and are genuinely supporting them. They are not. It's a lie. This is their way to use the Ukrainian people and the country as fodder to fight Russia without dirtying their own hands - at least not visibly dirtying them. You've missed the mark on this one, Dr. Alexander. This isn't about black, brown, or white.
