You are aware of the irony that the Russians are peddling the exact same BS about "liberating army" in this case?

Bigots gonna bigot... No matter which side they are on.

And once again I'm not supporting Russians in invading Ukraine. However, it's very important to acknowledge that the west is responsible for similar and far worse kinds of invasions. Yet, those never get the same coverage as Ukraine. Perhaps people in the west need to first learn how to hold their own governments accountable for the atrocities they commit.

this has to be a joke post, no one in the West has covered the last 8 years of war, as a matter of fact people in the West did not even think about Ukraine until Putin started threatening nuclear war, they don't care about Ukraine or Russia they just care about their countries becoming wastelands and have been as a result randomly informed that there is an invasion going on. The whole nothing else has been getting coverage like Ukraine is a bad take because it is factually incorrect.
