Hungary is losing out on nothing; all it has to do is stop acting as a roadblock to the EU's foreign policy and it benefits by getting its frozen EU funds.
In terms of Ukraine, preventing Russia from engaging in ethnic cleansing secures the future of a potential EU member state. Also given the geopolitical importance of keeping Russian expansionism in check, that is the best use of EU military spending at present.
The Soviet Union imploded first and foremost due to its massive internal contradictions. Any involvement from the US or Soros is secondary at best. Gorbachev's reforms threatened the power of the bureaucrat ruling class. They are the ones that killed the Soviet Union in order to become the oligarchs.
Even the architect of Russia "shock therapy" doesn't think that, anymore. He's still a white, Western professor, still teaching at an Ivy League school. He's still also giving speeches at the UN and other venues. It's incredible how well US lying propaganda works.
This is something important not enough people are talking about.
Ukraine has a legitimate concern (Russian imperial aggravation) but it appears to be convoluting itself with Zelensky himself (apparently? need a source) being tied to Israel and EU never growing a sack in its response to Israel — i.e. actual sanctions and cutting off trade instead of just verbally condemning at best (and promoting it by criminalizing Palestine action at worst).
incredible, you people have even twisted Russia attacking Ukraine into America's fault. like yes, America is awful, but Jesus christ you people sound like evangelical Christians talking about Satan. this shit has gotten downright religious.
It is. Maybe instead of ridicule and doubling down on CIA lying propaganda, you may actually do some serious legwork on looking into what @[email protected] is saying. If you could be bothered.
You keep saying the same stupid shit. I don't support Israel and all the evil shit they do, I don't support the US war in Iran, I don't support Russia's invasion of Ukraine. I am vehemently opposed to violence against all innocents.
You, however, are not. You are a russian fascist supporter piece of shit. So... yeah, go fuck yourself.
Russia has stolen and occupied land just like the israelies, they have murdered civilians just like the israelies, and they actually had LESS reason to invade than Israel.
You're a complete moron if you can't understand this.
You've certainly shown what kind of person you are. Almost hilariously incorrect, and a bad human being. It's a pity you can't feel shame for being a bad person, but your type never does. Maybe one day you'll look beyond Trump as your hero.
You want to support the people of Gaza to stop the killing there by Isreal but don't want to support the people of Ukraine to stop the killing there by Russia? Doesn't really make any sense. It makes you seem like a political shill.

Why are you even arguing with this person, they just told someone they would laugh at them getting killed.
If we don't marginalize extreme views on Lemmy, new users might assume that such views reflect the platform as a whole and be dissuaded from staying.
Downvoting is also good, as is reporting when comments break rules.
Are you saying Russia isn't engaged in war crimes against Ukraine?
LOL

It's the usual "everything is the west's fault" bullshit with these morons. Absolute cowards who are unable to accept ownership of their actions.

Ukraine is actively the victim of Russian aggression
Great news.
Ukrainians couldn't care less why. Result is result
Absolute trash mentality. Russia alone started this war for their own imperialistic ambitions.
Your take on this is like blaming Palestinians for their own invasion.

You sound exactly like a zionest, you scumbag.

How many more babies do you want dead, loser?
Ah, so you'd rather Ukraine not get the money. Ukrainians dying because you'd like to see some sort of political purity or something.
This is precisely the type of thinking that led people who hate fascism but who didn't think Harris was good enough to not vote - helping fascism win.
Brilliant.
Why don't you go fight for Russia since you love them so?
