I've tried to search for opinions on what's going on in Ukraine, but most posts are incredibly old. I'm not too educated on the matter myself (well, aside from keeping up most of the time with what cities are under whose control and all of that). I haven't really heard much about the geopolitical side of things, and it's hard to know what's disinfo or not; That's why I'd like to ask: What is your stance on the Ukraine war?

As long as the US continues to exist in the form it's in, it will either be at war or in a proxy war and people will be dying.

Big picture is, if Russia and Ukraine make peace, the US will start a new war somewhere else by invasion or proxy immediately afterwards.

So I'm not 100% on board with the sentiment that the war must end at any cost. We don't get peace if the war ends if it means the US will just kick off another one.

War is bad. But any scenario that diminishes US hegemony and its ability to wage war (whether that's in a peace treaty or in ongiong conflict) is preferable, because we'll never have peace in this world while those warmongers in DC are allowed to continue.

While i agree with alot of what you say, this war is not centered around the USA. And would still have happened with or without it.

These warmongers are in the kremlin
