    Honestly, I couldn’t care less about the Ukraine war. My entire life has been war after war after war that the US supposedly just had to get involved in or WW3 would happen, or whatever.

    A majority of Americans are finding that their full-time labor doesn’t buy them housing or food now, and that is the war we should be focused on, the one being waged against us by fucking billionaires.

    That said, Ukraine has something the US clearly needs: drone tech and anti-drone tech. The Iran War has made that obvious, but we’re still blowing money on subs and battleships and it doesn’t make any goddamn sense when the nature of war is changing before our very eyes and the loss of our bases, planes, troops, and materiel clearly necessitates that we adapt.

    And Ukraine, clearly, has the expertise to help us do that. Even if only out of self-interest, the US should be much more helpful in the Ukrainians’ war of defense.

          I am mocking the lack of thought in your wordy comment, in which you declare you don’t care about the Ukraine war because you’re so tired of wars, and then declare actually it could be useful in the Iran war.

          You know America attacked Iran, not the other way around, right?

            I am mocking the fact that you either didn’t read my reply or think it through.

            But that’s okay. It’s not like any of this matters. Have a lovely Sunday.

              All I heard was I don’t care about war. Not caring about the most important thing in the US is pure blasphemy! /s

                Yeah, being anti-war as an American is an anomaly. (At least until war drives up gas prices, at which point it finally becomes fashionable.)
