All human wars have a pattern. There's always an Ego withholding a power at one end, then it gets provoked and differences become irreconcilable. This results in soldiers mobilized to protect this ego in the name of patriotism. The Russian invasion shouldn't have happened. Europe is less than a century from the last war or egos that sent 50+ million people to the abyss.
The argument that NATO is responsible for this war is a total fallacy. The idea that a dictator building an army and should be left unchecked in the name of freedom is not well processed. Had Hitler been watched, his campaign would have been halted or the weight of the aftermath of the war wouldn't have been so devastating. Putin as a Dictator with no institutions for checks and balances in Russia must constantly be watched by the west to prevent his proliferation. I strongly argue that Putin would have eventually pull a stunt on Ukraine even in absence of NATO and the sanctions that his country faces at the moment
. The only difference would be that he'd be more unstoppable that he is right now.
Regardless of what political position we hold as humans. There's often a reasonable explanation brought up by someone waging a war. But no explanation is valid enough to account for the human casualties/suffering that results from wars.
We need to take time as humans and imagine being in the position of a Ukrainian who just wants to eat, drink, make love, raised kids and die peacefully; we need to imagine the disruption that this war would cause in the lives of these people. Ukraine will never return to its glory. The aftermath of this war will kill more people that the active war has done. It would cause more suffering that the active war is doing. The toll it would take on the mental health of the Ukrainians is immeasurable. Therefore, to the people who try to pose valid arguments in support of this invasion. Maybe you should take a time out and put yourselves in the shoes of the invaded.
Do not support another Nazi campaign in the name of political correctness. Have empathy towards another human suffering because of another's ego.
