The Biden administration is asking Congress to provide more than $13 billion in emergency defense aid to Ukraine and an additional $8 billion for humanitarian support through the end of the year.
Yeah, invasions are out of fashion. All the West does is make a country’s development contingent on their willingness to let the West exploit their natural resources and labor and then cut said development if they fund a social program or coup them if the “locals” are uncooperative. All after gutting these countries for hundreds of years via colonialism. You don’t need to do an invasion when you can just put a noose around the neck of a country.
Oh and the West still does invasions look at Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Syria. And UK special forces have been in Syria, the Sudan, Nigeria, and others as recently as last year.
Hey, Space Neoliberalist. If you ever touch some real theory (instead of reading Harry Potter and The Washington Post), like Lenin. You would know that this is an inter-capitalist conflict (you know what that means?). If you think that USA is helping in good faith (and not in the interest of colonialism exploitation in the long run), you are an idiot.
“fashy past grievances reasons”
So denouncing the crimes of the west is fascist now?
-“Hey USA shouldn’t have supported dictatorships in Latin America with their Plan Cóndor, or helped in the coup against the democratic elected Salvador Allende. Or dropped two atomic bombs in two civilian cities, or having the highest incarcerated population doing slave labor, or burn with napalm villages, or puting children in cages in the border, or….”. I could be all night talking about USA crimes. A whole month with the Nato members crimes.
-”Shut up fascist.”
Is always projetion with you liberals. Scrath a liberal, and a bloodthirsty nafo fascist bleeds.
Also ‘we haven’t invaded anywhere in the very immediate past (though the genocidal war criminals who perpetrated our last invasion are still important and celebrated public figures)’ is a pretty fucking weak justification from a country insisting on being world police.
Don’t worry, it’s not like half the people in Scotland want to leave the UK. That could never possibly happen! Imagine! Voting to leave a huge unpopular imperialist neoliberal organization! Utterly preposterous! Could never happen in a million years!
Only white countries though, when it comes to black people and brown people you don’t give a rats ass, there’s still dictators all over the world that none of you even give a s*** about
That’s fine but why are they banning socialist parties, integrating fascist paramilitaries into the army, and privatizing land? That all seems a little familiar.
Yeah we’ve really cultivated a lot of prestiege on this one, the west definitely hasn’t absolutely embarrassed itself and unified large swathes of the world against it. And hey, it only took like three rounds of sabotaged peace talks and and multiple generations of Ukranians fed into a big novelty Northrop-Grumman branded meat grinder.
it sends a message to other dictators around the world that we won’t just sit back and let them plough into another country,
You mean like the collective west did to Yugoslavia, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya? Who’s supposed to send the message to our dictators when it’s time to stop?

Maybe you should stop plowing into other countries yourselves, you bloodthirsty psychos.

Average neoliberal Pirate. Your bloodthirsty country should return all the gold and art that was stolen from all around the world.
PD: Read about neocolonialism.

Yeah neocolonialism the thing Russia is attempting right now. If you oppose neocolonialism you should oppose Russia.
Or do you just hate western countries for fashy past grievances reasons?

Holy shit at least look the fucking word up in a dictionary before you try to turn it around on someone else you buffoon
Even if you were going to butcher the term ‘colonialism’ THAT’S the one that’s relevant if a country is being occupied militarily.
WHY DO YOU SPEAK AT ALL. YOU NEED SO MUCH READING AND LISTENING BEFORE YOU STOP SPEAKING NONSENSE. INVESTIGATE WHAT YOU SAY AAAAAAAA
Neocolonialism understander has logged on
How dare you call me a murderer? I haven’t killed anyone in almost two years!
Except that in this case they are saying that while killing someone.
AKSHULLY right now I’m just repeatedly stabbing a man. We can’t know for certain if he’s actually dead until I’m done.
Tell that to Yemen.
Also ‘we haven’t invaded anywhere in the very immediate past (though the genocidal war criminals who perpetrated our last invasion are still important and celebrated public figures)’ is a pretty fucking weak justification from a country insisting on being world police.
Absolute brain worms claiming this as a talking point
Have you heard of scotland/wales/northern ireland?

Noticing you didn’t defend the other two instances
We were literally in Libya bombing civilians and training al quaeda cells just 12 years ago
They were in Afghanistan until 2014

No the message to other dictators is ‘be useful to us, or else’
yeah exactly
This would be a great emoji
Probably a two part emoji or it’s too small.

What message is America sending to the dictators that we bankroll while they perform genocide using US equipment and training?
Those are the other dictators. There’s also our dictators - those are the good ones!
Do you think the west has a genuine interest in consistently enforcing this or do you just not care when people you like do it?
Only white countries though, when it comes to black people and brown people you don’t give a rats ass, there’s still dictators all over the world that none of you even give a s*** about

only WE plough into other countries USA! USA! USA!
You could say the same thing but with putin sending the message and it would be more acurate.
*Except if that country is Palestine. They can get ploughed
This is giving “the UN is an effective international governance body” energy.
