Trump says US will not make Ukraine security guarantees ‘beyond very much’ and Kyiv can ‘forget about’ joining Nato – live

good times make for weak men.

Thinking it is bad is fine. The author of the Tweets even agrees with you in the screenshot you posted.
But America is not helping Ukraine. It used Ukraine as a tool. Now that Ukraine is at its lowest point America starts extorting Ukraine.
If this outcome (which many leftists correctly predicted) was known to Ukrainians three years ago, do you think Ukrainians would have been as enthusiastic to fight? So America can put a straw in their ground, and slurp up their minerals to fund Raytheon.

"We predicted that we were going to help the GOP elect a Russian puppeted fascist three years ago, because NEOLIBS are worse than fascists, and the lives of minorities and foreigners don't matter ^.^ "
Quite a prediction from 'many leftists'.
do you think Ukrainians would have been as enthusiastic to fight? So America can put a straw in their ground, and slurp up their minerals to fund Raytheon.
Do I think Ukrainians would have been as enthusiastic about not being genocided if America wasn't supporting them?
Yes. Most people who aren't ghouls think that.

Obviously Russia’s Genocide of Ukraine is bad. That’s not up for debate.
Until the question of doing anything about it comes up, in which case it very quickly turns to "Well, suddenly I'm a fiscal conservative" or "Russia has Legitimate Security Interests 🥺"
"Genocide bad, but we can't actually do anything that might fight it!"
Isn't that the exact position you criticized mainstream Dems for, just on Palestine?

That's the funny thing. Times are hard as shit - but we're stuck with all these weak ass greedy boomers.

No, I've always supported arming Ukraine fighting against imperialism. My criticism of the US and Europe has been that they were not sending enough and should send in troops to assist Ukraine in fighting back against Russia. My other criticism was that the US was not genuine with the process for a ceasefire, and instead prioritized prolonging the war with Russia the same way the Afghanistan proxy war was used against the USSR, at the cost of Ukrainian lives. Russia may have legitimate security interests concerning NATO from a geopolitical standpoint, but the invasion only justifies the necessity of a security pact. I'd prefer a different security pact where all European countries participate Democratically, since the US only cares about NATO as a form of US Hegemony and not about the well-being and sovereignty of any European country.
Isn't that the exact position you criticized mainstream Dems for, just on Palestine?
I criticized the Dems and the Republicans for funding, defending, and facilitating a genocide. As anyone with a conscience should. We should be doing everything possible to fight back against imperialism and genocide. That's what international law is supposed to be about.

"was not genuine with process for a ceasefire"
Would you like to elaborate on this?

So yes, it is the exact position that you criticized mainstream Dems on, just for Palestine.

Considering Zelenskyy said out loud that Trump lives in a disinformation bubble, it's a safe bet that he's aware.
-
Looks like Season 5 came out also.
-
Trump trades alliances for slogans; NATO isn’t a casino, and Ukraine isn’t a poker chip.
-
Yeah, sounds about right.

The signalling about the minerals was done far before Trump took the reigns.
Ukraine confirmed this week that they refused the early peace deal (which is better than the deal they will get now) because NATO promised to support them to the end.
Neocons can blame this all on the convenient orange sheep, but the Biden administration made no effort to provide with Ukraine with decisive weapons to win the war. Only barely enough for the stalemate to keep going.

Noam Chomsky & Vijay Prashad: U.S. Must Stop Undermining Negotiations with Russia to End Ukraine War
So yes, it is the exact position that you criticized mainstream Dems on, just for Palestine.
You get that Israel and Russia are the ones committing genocide against Ukraine and Palestine, right? Yeah, I support Ukrainian and Palestinian resistance against fascist forces and their rights to sovereignty and self-determination.

Like numerologists counting the letters in Bible verses.

This is a common claim by fascist shitheads, and has been for a good two years now, that has been repeatedly debunked in various ways. It has been repeated by Trump's fascist cronies recently, though, so it would be very interesting if you have an actual source for this. Surely you wouldn't signal boost fascist cunts in service to imperialist aims, and fascist cunts in service to the US fascist government, no less, would you...?

Oh, Noam Chomsky said it, what's his view on Ukr-
You get that Israel and Russia are the ones committing genocide against Ukraine and Palestine, right? Yeah, I support Ukrainian and Palestinian resistance against fascist forces and their rights to sovereignty and self-determination.
Yet those who take a "Genocide is okay because it's expensive or hurts my fee-fees to oppose 🥺" position gets a pass from you on one genocide, but infinite criticism and accelerationism for the other.
Curious.

The boomers grew up in good times.

It varies wildly depending on where you live. Remember that the US is a huge country.

Are you able to write a single comment without half of it painting the person you are disagreeing with as a supporter of Putin?
Read one of your own favorite newspapers articles and replace the word Russia with America.

Supporter is a strong word. I believe 'useful idiot' is the traditional nomenclature.

"Russia, a country on the border of Ukraine with long-standing interests in subjugating the people and territory, wants Ukraine's minerals; therefore, the US wants it too"
Maybe India will invade next.

Holy fucking shit, did you not read your own article?
Graham said the idea came from former President Donald Trump, who on Feb. 10 said that aid for Ukraine should not go through unless it’s restructured as a loan.
Jesus fucking Christ.
This is a common claim by fascist shitheads, and has been for a good two years now, that has been repeatedly debunked in various ways. It has been repeated by Trump’s fascist cronies recently, though, so it would be very interesting if you have an actual source for this. Surely you wouldn’t signal boost pro-genocide misinformation from fascist cunts in service to imperialist aims, and fascist cunts in service to the US fascist government, no less, would you…?
So that's a 'no' to this one. Just freely repeating fascist claims in service to an ongoing genocide.
You want to know why you feel like you're being painted as a "Putin supporter"? It's because your talking points are from the same shit trough.
