    Poor Russia had no choice but to invade. It’s the only thing they could have done. Nothing else was possible in their predicament. They had no agency whatsoever in this. They were made to go to war by the evil others. People resisting a foreign army on their soil are obviously warmongers. If they had just surrendered they would now be a flourishing beacon of democracy like Belarus. But look what they made Russia do instead. Russia bleeds because of Ukraine’s terrible choices. Poor Russia. Poor poor Russia.

      It’s the only thing they could have done.

      Russia had already tried every other option, over the span of 35 years. So yes, it was the only thing left they could have done.

      The material conditions forced them to invade and make more civilians and soldiers, it’s just common sense. Marx told me.

        Imperialists like you can’t seem to shake this rapist mentality of permanent victim blaming.

        “If she had only dressed appropriately all this could have been avoided.”

        “Had she not resisted, he would have just raped her and she’d still be alive.”

        “Look what she made him do.”
