    And how about the millions who weren’t okay with Putin, but were forced into silence because one person can’t fight governmental tyranny? Like, I don’t support Russia’s invasion and I think Putin needs to pay, but do millions of Russians who had no say whatsoever (and were brainwashed for decades through expertly crafted propaganda) deserve to starve alongside their children for the actions of a monster?

    If you say ‘yes’, then tell me if all Americans deserve to suffer the consequence of Trump’s presidency when the majority didn’t even vote for the guy.

        What, you expected people to stand up against a tinpot dictator who would happily torture them and their families? Would you do that?

        And Trump was literally about to take the final step towards killing democracy in America. He might not have invaded Mexico during his term, but he sure was setting up the environment where he could’ve gotten away with it and quashed any protest against it.

          yes. it’s a family tradition after all, sometimes there ARE things worth dying for.

          most of the military was not on Trumps side, it at best would have sparked a civil war, and the trump-tards aren’t that great in number
