I just can't even comprehend how some republicans have found common ground with these unhinged thugs.\nIts just disgraceful, but I guess Putin has paid off a lot of them on their Moscow christmas parties, and he is also a christian fascist (or, at least pretends to be religious) . They might also own Putin a bunch of favors after he helped them get elected, which Trump literally thanked him for on stage.\nEdit: This is also perhaps by far the most cost-effective way for the US to destroy one of their main geopolitical rivals. The aid given is very low compared to the annual US defense budget (think I read somewhere it was like 3% of that budget this year or something), and no US soldier is even sent into the war.", ">\n\n\nthe lines between good and evil is so clearly defined\n\nGood = neo-nazis", ">\n\nYou cannot be trying to insinuate Ukrainians being peaceful and being bombed and invaded are fucking neo-nazis. Tell me you aren't that braindead.", ">\n\nOh they are. The GOP’s tactic is to say that since Ukraine, an entire nation of people with a nation’s usual diversity of philosophies and political opinions, has members of their army who have shown themselves to have fascistic opinions, they should drop everything to root those elements out of their army instead of concentrating on the active invasion going on. And the fact that they haven’t stopped defending themselves from Russia long enough to do so must mean the entire nation is nazis.", ">\n\nWe can do our best to\n\n\nProtect a people and their territory next to our European Allies\n\n\nKeep a Democracy stable in the wake of increased Populism\n\n\nStrengthen alliances that can be leveraged to keep China and others from similar imperialist behavior\n\n\nWeaken Russia’s ability to spread misinformation and interfere in elections\n\n\nVersus….", ">\n\nAll of those are great reasons for the average American. \nFor the GOP\n\nPost war we are in a good position to have US contractors rebuiild, bringing billions of dollars or natural resources back home.\nWe potentially gain a NATO ally who will buy weapons and ammunitiion from our MIC to replace Soviet era shit.\nWe already gained two new ally nations that will add their support to NATO easing the burden for the rest. \nAs Ukraine rebuilds their oil and natural gas reserves, as well as their Nuclear power plants they will feed Europe until green energy production can take over. \nAll of the weapons we have been sending over are back stocks. Things we would have to pay to maintain, and or dispose of properly. They will be replaced by bleeding edge tech that will be built all over the US with exorbitant markups. Meaning kickbacks for politicians are a guarantee.", ">\n\nBut but...I can't be a member of the GOP and support a Democracy...", ">\n\nThe GQP doesn't give one flying fuck. They just want to own the libs.", ">\n\nLot of Putin loyalists in the House", ">\n\n“But I read on Facebook - in a post from someone who also hates people of color - that Ukraine is full of Nazis”\n— Mindless trump supporter", ">\n\nYet some on the Kremlin payroll will try", ">\n\nit's not a mistake though.... many of the GOP know full well it's best to keep aiding Ukraine.\nthey're intentionally ratfucking their constituents for a bribe (or whatever) from Putin. ratfucking the american people and worse to ukraine.", ">\n\nWell that is what the Maga/Kremlin backed caucus is hoping for.", ">\n\nProbably the order Putin gave them.", ">\n\nWhat an incredibly insightful and intelligent take.", ">\n\nThey can pay the Ukraine now or pay with Lives to Support Europe Later.", ">\n\nIncorrect. It would be the correct decision to stop aiding Ukraine. Another correct decision would be to fully withdraw from Europe and NATO.\nAs per usual, r/politics will defend neoliberals/neocons.", ">\n\nCould we maybe aid the US tax payer for once?", ">\n\nTrue but also completely wrong in the fact that if we have to go back there and it's World War III later on, things are going to be even worse at home.", ">\n\nThings are already bad at home. But let's spend more money on the 🪖 military.", ">\n\nSo do enlighten us. You want Russia to invade Europe like Hitler unchecked? How do you think that doesn't impact us in the future if we do that?", ">\n\nNo, I want our government to prioritize American citizens and solve problems at home instead of getting us involved in 30 different conflicts around the world.", ">\n\nThe thing is there's a difference and it's obvious.\nIn Ukraine, the US helping is like helping police that are shooting a mugger that stabbed a woman's family and is about to kill her.\nIn other conflicts the US is more just doing crazy mercenary shit for reasons that usually aren't that great, or even terrible.\nSo picking Ukraine as the example is just weird... it's the time we're doing something right.", ">\n\nJust like Iraq? Afghanistan? People said those were the right conflicts too and look how that ended up.", ">\n\nActually tons of people protested them in the US. I think Bush was one of the worst Presidents of all time. It's a shame Nancy Pelosi had the chance to do something about his war crimes in Congress, and didn't. Just a whole era of historical disaster for the US. \nHowever, it still has nothing to do with Ukraine if you look into that situation at all.\nAbsolutely nobody in the US told Putin to amass an army on the border of Ukraine and invade.", ">\n\nAnd a ton of people thought it was the right decision. It was the minority who was against it.", ">\n\nAs an anti-imperialist, I agree.", ">\n\nDemocrats covered up for ftx, got nearly 100 million dollars. Are you really arguing that we should not have very tight controls and auditing over the 11 figure donations we are making to Ukraine? We will support them, but if “political contributions” start coming in from recipients of those funds, the shit needs to hit the fan. Wherever there are large sums of money, there Will be ass chunks trying to figure out how to get their share.", ">\n\n\nDemocrats covered up for ftx\n\nYou mean the guy that was just arrested and extradited? Put down the alt right media you clown.", ">\n\nAlt right. Ha. You know nothing your socialist masters haven’t directed you to say. Any debate, any forum, bring your professors.", ">\n\n\nbring your professors\n\nAnti-intellectualism does go hand in hand with authoritarianism, so its not surprising that you probably can't even define socialism.", ">\n\nNot to side with the Republicans but I really don't understand why we give a shit about Ukraine. Like we don't have a written treaty with them and they're not part of NATO. What is our obligation to them and why aren't we spending that money domestically for social programs or infrastructure?", ">\n\nBecause we do have treaty's obligated to protect them. They gave up their nuclear weapons for this. But also because we are not losing Americans and filling a huge void Afghanistan left in the military industrial complex. Aside form that Ukrianes continued existence and invasions failing in Europe helps maintain a western centric American hedgemony.", ">\n\nOh well if that's the case, I was unaware of the treaty and apologize for my ignorance on the topic. I was under the impression that we didn't have one.", ">\n\nFk these war hawks", ">\n\nOur greatest ally", ">\n\n“challenge accepted!” - Republicans", ">\n\nOne the republicans are all too eager to make.", ">\n\nWell they have indeed gone through the toughest times we know that pretty well", ">\n\nrepublicans are good at those", ">\n\nCaption: \" This is how big it was, I could barely fit it in my mouth\"", ">\n\nI’m sure that was one of the concessions McCarthy had to make but maybe let’s hear all the things he sold out, to get that gavel.", ">\n\nOh no, not commentary from a senator who owns defense contractor stock…", ">\n\nThat aid is doing tremendous damage to Russia and Putin. We'd be absolute fools to discontinue it.", ">\n\nRepublicans can go live in Russia since they hate the US so much", ">\n\nSince the House Republicans report to Putin, they don't think it is a mistake to openly serve their Master's interests.", ">\n\nDo not vote for this Senator again. He doesn't care about the countless Americans who are in need and who could use that money, no. He cares about some white supremacist loving Ukraine.", ">\n\n“Just keep giving all ur tax dollars to Ukraine bro don’t ask questions bro it’s democracy bro no audits bro”", ">\n\nComments like these that refer to giving to Ukraine as just tax dollars are the people that truly don’t understand where their tax dollars go.", ">\n\nTrue though they just remain blank and be thinking actually their taxes are going into the right hands.", ">\n\nOught to be looking for development happening in the country. \nTaxes being paid the citizens are all for good purposes. Better to inherit and implement for the best." ]
