Literally nobody with power thinks the US should get involved in Ukraine and people on twitter arguing against it seem clueless

wym tho, the past three administrations have been very open about protecting Ukraine, money/weapons/training etc, willing to respond w force. now committing actual troops do you mean, they just don’t want to respond even tho they have to?

yeah only Poland etc. i read a piece of reporting i thought implied some troops were at the border but it was more of the opposite actually, explicitly “evacuate yourselves cause if we send troops it’s world war”

Biden warns Americans in Ukraine to leave, says sending troops to evacuate would be 'world war'

Okay then why are people acting like there’s some media military industrial complex rush to war I don’t see anything in official news suggesting anybody wants to be involved!!!

lmao i mentioned “war machine” in a response to this but i’m not actually doing that shtick, just acknowledging that once things are in motion there is definitely a system that benefits from sustaining that inertia

all of my comments are based on our Ukraine foreign policy since 2014 Biden admin does not want to walk into a war since it’s political suicide but it runs contrary to all the messaging that has been sent regarding Russia and Ukraine for last decade
