Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Do you think its good because you're Russian?
Never reply to one word troll attempts. You gave them a beautiful opportunity to spread out their bs arguments after multiple prods.
Oh, I hope they do, so I can destroy them while outing them. Check my posting history, this guy and I have crossed swords multiple times before.
Just block and move on.
Then how do the other people find out they need to block and move on?
Halting foreign aid to Ukraine would make this blood shed end faster.
You mean because Putin would move on to shedding the blood of the people in Ukraine who wouldn't support his puppet leader and then he'd move on to shedding the blood of other innocent people when he invaded other countries? Doesn't sound like something us sane people want, sorry. Maybe we can make the blood shed end by making Putin leave Ukraine instead, yeah that sounds good.
Can you see the oil burning from where you live?
Russian expansionism slippery slope argument.
This will never happen, sorry.
You don't seem sorry, but maybe you're light headed from choking on fumes, and not just an entity who supports a dictator, like you seem.
Uh... Chechnya? Georgia? 2014 Ukraine?
The fact that Russia is the size that it is is the result of centuries of Russian expansionism.
Why stop there? Lots of victims can be victimized faster and with less bloodshed if we all just turn away and let it happen. What an amazing idea! Next stop, Utopia!
Come on, your Putin is a little pussy. All those nukes and no balls to use them. Go on show the world your balls, little pussytin.
Why conduct such a massive escalation? I am sorry but the best you will get is the usage of Oreshnik MIRVs.
