  • Al capone did plenty of charity…

    Cool, also irrelevant.

    They are sending billions of dollars in weapons to an authoritarian and corrupted government who passed martial law and forbids any man between 18-60 to leave the country, who’s also seeking to forcibly repatriate these who fled the country and are eligible for conscription.

    They past martial law because they are fighting for their sovereignty, my guy. If the US had an invader beating down its doorstep and they had already taken California, I feel like switching to wartime government is justifiable. A draft is unfortunate, but when the alternative is to fold in the face of Russian aggression? That’s no choice at all.

    They are doing this while backing a genocide in israel, selling weapons to dictatorships such as saudi arabia and doing business with countries like china who are directly supplying russia in this war.

    See previous. Yes, the US makes a lot of bad decisions. Supplying Ukraine is not one of them.

    They don’t give a shit about you and me or common people, rulers do not fight their wars they send others to die for their slimy interests. That’s not a good thing.

    So it is categorically impossible for leaders of nations to care about the people in the nations they administer? This comes off as incredibly cynical.
