I fucking mean it. I've risked my life to stand up to abusers before. And Vladdy boy is the biggest abuser of them all. So fuck him and his rinky-dink nukes, nuclear annihilation is a preferable alternative to fascism spreading unopposed.
Gotcha, so you'd rather die than let Ukraine and Russia naturally resolve their conflict. I forgot how well Russia was doing in Ukraine right now
For real though, I get your argument is rooted in the "appeasement didn't work" aspect of WW2. It's important to note that Chamberlain's appeasement strategy was going on while Hitler was invading the sudatenland. Today we have a unified response from Europe to support Ukraine indirectly. Nobody is appeasing Russia like they were nazi Germany. Not to mention Russia literally has been exhausted by this. If they can't hold the border territory they're trying to keep, what makes you think they'd make a Nazi war path across Europe?
Literally wishing for the end of the world because two countries are fighting over a border territory is insane. Most world conflicts have been fought over territory. Yes it's similar to how WW2 started because it's literally how most wars start.
If you're suicidal like that, maybe go volunteer yourself for Ukraine instead of taking the rest of us down with you.
