The left has never been anti war.

There have been a handful of people on the left who jumped on the chance to stand against obviously stupid wars and made their names on it but they are a tiny minority.

Usually it is the right who are isolationist

The "left", "center" and other sane people are all anti war, ffs. Helping Ukraine defend itself is not pro war.

Who gives a shit about ukraine? Within my lifetime it was an SSR, and before that, it was where the ethnic RUS came from. Invading Iraq was way more unjust than invading a buffer country you're ethnically and culturally connected to because the west/nato keeps fiddle-faddling with it....🤷‍♂️

How much time to you have for an explanation?

No amount of explanation will make me give a shit about ukraine. Let me explain to you about how provoking someone with nuclear weapons aimed at you is a terrible idea, full stop!
