Use this community to share news articles.
I tried not to make rules for this community but y'all wylin'. I'll keep it quick and to the point:
-
Mildly biased headlines and articles are fine, but please do not share opinion pieces or strongly slanted articles here.
-
Reporting content that does not break those rules prohibited.
-
Baiting and drama farming is prohibited. If you're not sure whether or not you're in this category, ask yourself if what you're about to post or comment adds to the discussion of the topic at hand, or if you are trying to get a rise out of someone, make bad-faith accusations against one's character, etc. There's some leeway here because I have a sense of humor though, so don't let this rule scare you.
-
Endorsing or supporting extrajudicial, nonexecutive or nonwar violence is prohibited.
-
Using slurs is expressly prohibited.
-
Using the Poisoning The Well fallacy to attack sources shared in a post is presently not allowed (this rule may change in the future, and isolated instances will not subject you to a permanent ban)

LOL, I'm not Ukraine's friend. Why would I be? I see no reason to care much about this war other than having the opinion that Russia shouldn't have attacked them.
You're in the minority. Even if you don't support Ukraine, they are resisting Russia, our literal enemy. Putin and his administration interferes in elections around the world and is hostile to democracies.
On this teeny tiny corner of the internet, sure. I don't care.
IDK, my principle on war is that it is bad and should be mostly avoided. Wars that could be ended more quickly should not be continuously funded, and wars should conclude as quickly as possible, even if that means there will be greater short-term casualties. Over the long term, I think more people die when wars drag on in a trickle of death, and it prevents the inevitable losers from rebuilding as quickly as they should and their citizens deserve.
If you say that because Russia is bad we should go to war with them directly and destroy them, I'm not a fan, but I think it'd be better than stretching out this war for all of eternity. In general though, I think just letting Ukraine lose is the best option, since it likely leads to the least amount of casualties, and doesn't give Russia a particularly greater strategic advantage over us.
Go tell the grieving relatives of killed Ukraine soldiers that you wanted them to die because you're their friend.
What a weird thing to say
What can I say, it's a weird position to have. "I care about your people so much I want them to die in war", what kind of logic is that?
Again absolutely stupid position to think.
You're just dumb bro nobody thinks like this lmfao. Literally stupidest thing I've ever heard someone say
