[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So, under which conditions is it legit to be a pacifist?  Do you think anyone can legitimately be anti-war?  Or are they automatically a bot or a victim of propaganda?

The only country's foreign policy that I have a vested interest in is my own.  I get a vote. I can call my elected representative.    I can try to be persuasive to those around me to convince them to do the same.

More likely that your position of “pacifism”, which is clearly transparent and a poor choice and essentially is you advocating to leave Ukrainians out to dry, is the stupid and informed by right wing news.

We get it. Your news sources are telling you to like Russia, probably because you are conservative, strongly religious (Christian), and have a natural proclivity toward Russia’s particular brand of authoritarian/strongman/anti-gay/pro-traditional values.

So to you, Ukraine getting attacked and taken over by Russia isn’t that bad because they’re all sort of Russian anyway right? And you don’t really mind Putin? And like, the US totally wouldn’t look bad to its European allies if it simply turned tail and let everyone else fend for themselves right?

No dude. The best path is to show support. Show we are a beacon of hope. Not your little weak, impulsive poorly reasoned, weasel nonsense.

It's more like - would you really mind if Australia invaded New Zealand? Or Brazil Uruguay? Or one African country another one? Not really.  it's not happening to you and it's irrelevant to you, they can sort it out between themselves without casting it as an existential struggle. You are resorting to emotional attacks and pretending anyone who isn't agreeing with you is flawed in some way.  And it's really not making anyone like you more or pay attention to what you're saying. [/quote]

It’s more like I stopped reading after “would you mind if Australia invaded New Zealand”…

You have zero grip on reality.[/quote]

I don’t give a fk if some misguided pacifist in the suburbs likes me. I just want the US to keep funding and supporting Ukraine. It’s a good and just cause. I’m glad your apprehension and isolationism are not guiding our foreign policy in this case. Everyone wants peace. But we stand up for our western allies. That’s it. That is all. Stop posting your inanity.[/quote]
