      Upvote for the controversial opinion.

      Do you feel like the world will be better off if the Russian Federation annexes Ukraine or if it remains independent? Is there some other solution you prefer?

        ‘ukraine’ stopped being a sovereign, democratic state when the euromaidan coup of 2014 (orchestrated by nuland and others in the obama admin) overthrew yanukovich.

        The coup itself was exceptionally violent, including burning many people alive in a trade union hall, as well killing many civilians in the donbass region by indiscriminate mortar fire (by the ‘ukrainians’).

        The regime itself is openly fascist, and has formally integrated military units which openly wear nazi-era symbols and which glorify the infamous nazi steppan bandera.

        Modern ukraine is now a proxy state, which the west uses as a money laundering operation (to wash american tax dollars through ukraind to ultimately in to europe, and as a weapons blackmarket for terrorists around the world. The illegitimate banderite regime is also trafficking human organs at an indistrial scale, and it is widely assumed that sex trafficking from that region has also increased. (ukraine was one of the most corrupt countries in the world even before the coup stole the sovereignty away from ukrainian people.)

        Now that ukraine is badly losing on the battlefield, and that this useless war has dragged on for yeads longer than it should, to still be supporting ‘ukraine’ in 2026 means one of two things. Either:

        1: You are historically / politically or media illiterate. This means you believe every news story from cnn, fox news, or from other cia cutouts. No critical thinking, no context, no details. Just ukraine good. media said say.

        or

        2: You are an ideological fascist. In the ww2 sense. You support the legacy of bandera, you believe their concentration camps and holocausting of jews, gays, romani etc didnt go far enough, and you hope that with western backing, zelensky and his band coterie of banderites will this time complete the fuhrers final solution and make ukraine an ethnically pure supremacist state.

        I’ll be generous and say as a third option you might be a ukrainian national and just be playing along with the cancerous banderite junta (which has banned all non-state-sanctioned religions, cancelled all elections, outlawed opposition political parties, and even banned the speaking of the russian language amongst ethnic russians) out of pure fear. This one i can at least understand, especially if you lacked the foresight or the means to flee your country when it was deatroyed in 2014.

        From their post history they appear to be a straight up pro rusky propogandist. So I’d be thinkin less controversial opinion, more paid astroturfing, probably.
