@trygvekalland @genmaicha The only people that I feel sorry for are the ordinary citizens that are suffering in this, and that includes all the citizens in the west alongside future generations that are paying for yet another war in Europe, as if the wars elsewhere weren't enough... most likely because of geopolitics and the resources in question here. That is a common theme.

Democracy? I don't recall ever getting to decide whether to join this war or send aid or to accept people in. Or whether to be a part of NATO. Instead I get guilt tripped into it, my country becomes more crowded and poorer for it. But hey, we get to prop up yet another state that treats its own citizens like shit and pretend that it is a democracy and that we are fighting for democracy and freedom. It feels good.
