So you honestly believe the Russians are the bad guys in this conflict? Asking for a friend.

I don't think Russia is the "bad guy," if we were Russia we'd be doing the same thing, trying to rebuild our shattered union and resenting the interference of another nation.

Russia's interests are not our interests, however -- I mean the US, but I reckon what's good for the US is good for Canada too in a general sense. The USSR was a problem for the US, right up until they collapsed, and we don't want them rebuilding the capacity to have as much geopolitical influence as they once did.

Fucking with Ukraine's government to basically set them up to be our unwitting mercs is some cold blooded shit. I think if anyone is the bad guy here, it's the US, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't do exactly what we're doing it. It's pretty smart and most likely saves lives in the long run.
