Ukraine: Dilusional Social Media Comments

I'm surprised by the large amount of people being interviewed, and commenting, in social media platforms that are actually advocating direct military conflict in Ukraine.
I blame decades of relative peace and abundance on the stupidity. I bet many don't know the history of the USSR or the cold war.
If these idiots ever gain decision power (inevitable) this world is done for.

There is a reason why Japanese and Chinese make so much of an effort to educate their young.
No IQ test required for posting on TUSCL for now.
"Direct intervention" - holy shit!
If he nukes us that will be the end of Russia he knows that, fuck social media and all, the only way anyone has ever stopped a bully is to fight back.
American exceptionalism on deadly display in Ukraine

25, almost all of the rest of Europe is protected by the guarantee of NATO. There's really not anywhere else he could go in Europe. NATO could however do something about Moldova.
Putin may not care if he gets nuked back. Hitler, for example, by the end of WW2 didn't care that he was throwing away his own people.
Hitler had a treaty with Stalin, that worked out right? didn’t we guarantee Ukrainian security in the Minke Accord ?
The only thing Putin cares about is his power, and its continuation. If he truly believes that he is going to lose his power, he will use nuclear weapons. If he can't have what he wants, he won't let anyone have anything (just like 25IQ).
Ukraine is not a NATO member, therefore the US has no obligations to defend them. Rampant corruption in Ukraine is a major reason for this. That corruption is also why Ukraine has not advanced as far from post-Soviet rule as Poland and the Baltic states have. None of that makes it okay for Russia to invade the Ukraine, but it does explain why Ukraine has no mutual defense treaties with the west.
Even if Russia is successful in toppling Zelensky's government and replacing it with a Putin-aligned puppet government, there may be years of unrest, insurgencies, and guerrila resistance. The west and other countries will need to keep Russia and Putin ostracized and cut off until Ukraine - Crimea, Donetsk, and all- are released to their unified independence. If Russia or Belarus tries to invade other US-aligned countries after Ukraine, e.g. Moldova, NATO members or not, then it will be necessary for us to send forces to that country (pending that country's request and our government's approval). Hopefully, our forces will only need to serve as a deterrent and not actually have to repel Russian invasion.
I understand why people would want to see the American military go into Ukraine and fight Russia to end this horrific bloodshed, but they are not seeing the big picture. A Russian soldier shoots a US soldier. An F-22 downs an Su-57. A Russian sub sinks and American destroyer. An B-2 flattens a Russian forward command post. A Russian guided missile cruiser destroys a US Carrier group with a nuclear warhead. Wasn't it Einstein who said that he knew not with what weapons World War 3 would be fought, but World War 4 would be fought with sticks and stones?
Go back and watch The Day After, Threads, and Testament if you still don't get it.
“The idea that the United States is uniquely virtuous may be comforting to Americans.”
“Too bad it's not true.”
“Americans blind themselves (denial) to the fact/reality that they are just like everyone else around the world… (human beings)”
It is also called Superiority Complex; a burning desire to minimize or undermine other human beings to make themselves feel better…
Americans don’t always have self-awareness (denial) to know they are coming across to people around the world as a hypocritical, greedy bullying, opportunistic, imperialist power…

You talking about the MINSK agreement? Still tired of being right all the time?
Furthermore, the Minsk Agreement, which is real and does exist, does not involve the US. It is a purely European protocol.
Always right, all along.
