    Better in what way, morally? Morality isn’t real and the level of geopolitics is where it’s the least real. From a practical, threat assessment standpoint, one of these things is much more urgent and pressing than the other.

      I mean yeah one of them is right now bombing another European country so Russia is obviously more alarming but the American threat is pretty bad too

        One of them is currently supplying and abetting a genocide, kidnapping heads of state, shooting people in the street during gestapo raids, disappearing activists to concentration camps, bombing countries on multiple continents, trying to topple the government of Iran and preparing for multiple invasions.

        The other is at war with the puppet government of exactly one country, which was committing ethnic cleansing and who we put there as part of our own strategy of aggression.

        I know who I consider the bigger threat to peace.

          For some people the world outside of Europe isn’t real, it’s insane

            A) Greenland

            B) We started the conflict in Ukraine

            C) I cannot stress enough how much bombing the Hague is official US policy

              There’s no bombing going on in Greenland as far as I know. Lots of bombing going on in Ukraine. If bombing European countries isn’t an official Russian policy then they’ve somehow misshot a lot of missiles.

                Oh no, not the sacred European countries! Doesn’t Russia know that it’s only acceptable to bomb brown people?

        “Russia is more alarming because they’re bombing white people, not just subhumans in the global South!”
