What happens when Mexico claims Texas and California?

Russia wants Alaska back?

Canada wants the North?

Crimea is Ukrainian.

Twitter explosion with fantasies?

How about a solution for Benjamin personally, "just fk off from Ukraine"?

Maybe Russia could, IDK, stop trying to conquer and annex territory with people who don't want to be apart of it?

Allowing a violent, genocidal dictator to seize land unchecked bodes poorly for future peace.

Imaginary people in your head? Crimea wanted back to Russia already in 1990s, nothing to do with Putin . Go back to Ukraine, stupid peasants, imperialist Benjaminn knows better what's best for you and future peace.

Are you saying people in Kyiv wanted to be Russian? People in Donetsk?

People in Kharkiv?

Kremenchuk?

Russia had made all of them further anti Russian by their own actions, not tbe west

Except they didn’t.

The majority of people in Crimea, one of the least Ukrianain territories, was 54% in favor of independence from Russia in 1991.

That’s backed up by facts and numbers at the time, not your historical

Revisionism.

Putin is the one who instigated the Ukrainian war in 2014, nobody else.

Putin is following a long line of Russian dictators who practice genocide and cultural destruction.

Ask yourself who deported 130k Lithuanians from the Baltics?

Who deported the Crimean tartars?

It’s a facet of Russian leadership pro putinists don’t want to acknowledge.

"Independence from Russia" in 1991 sounds awesome! Crimea was a part of Ukraine since 1954 (before it was a part of Russia but a Soviet leader added it to Ukraine by fiat).

But you're a real hero fighting Putin on the internet! Ready to free 123 million Ukrainian provinces! Who deported 50 trillion Lithuanians from the Moon? Ask yourself how many Kazakhs and Siberian huskies voted to be independent from Sri Lanka?

Trump would have let us off the leash already to push the communists back.

Except it wasn’t Russia, it was the Soviet Union. A communist state. And it sucked.

It was Moscow who deported the Crimean tartars, not anyone else.

You could say the same about you voicing your anger and ire at mandates, right?

When the Russian revolution happened the Ukrianain republic broke free from Russia and the Soviet Union until they invaded and annexed it. It stayed apart of it, by force as a communist puppet state, until 1991.

Russia has a habit of invading Ukraine.

It’s time to break that habit.

Still talking to voices in your head? I was, actually, born there. Your knowledge of history and geography sucks.

I would suggest you do your research first.

History repeats itself.

Are you saying the Soviet Union didn’t invade in 1919? Or Poland? Or the Baltics? And then didn’t murder 7 million Ukrainians?

Neat 😉

Trouble reading? I was born there, "research", my ass. Search engine genius.

The Soviet Union didn't exist in 1919, it was created in 1922.

From a Ukrainian official:

"Western weapons are an important turning point in the war. The more the Ukrainian military succeeds at the front, the more actively the Kremlin will resort to attempts to compromise Ukraine’s partnership with the West. Helping Ukraine with weapons, the free world is not just saving Ukrainians from genocide. This is an investment in a fair and stable international system in which all countries, both large and small, can feel free and confident, independent of the whims of deranged dictators."

Seems like they really like those Himars, Javelins, 777s, and Krabs :)

I literally chat with them daily.
