Millions of people are leaving Ukraine. Zelenskyy is not sacrificing them. Nor should he or thay leave if they don't want to . Zelenskyy is one of many who understand the importance of standing up to authoritarian abuses and war crimes. And they're doing so heroically. Ukrainians are showing the rest of the world how wonderful they are. There is no scenario where Putin's approaches should be tolerated. War crimes and authoritarian abuses like his and his supporters (inc. GOP, Saidit &c) must be challenged and stopped in all cases, and at all costs. Zalenskyy's comments reflect the concerns of billions of people worldwide. Our freedom depends the limiting and destruction of authoritarianism and fascism. The people of Ukraine are fighting for so many of US who will face the consequences of this authoritarianism if it continues.

I am no fan of Putin and his authoritarianism, and certainly don't support what he is doing.

It just seems to me like the Ukrainian people would have been better off with remaining neutral, not joining NATO, and not getting invaded, and I cannot for the life of me understand why he would choose war over neutrality. Yes I like standing up to authoritarians, but this doesn't seem like it was in the best interests of the Ukrainian people, and it feels like Zelensky is not allowed to be criticized at all, or I am automatically pro-Putin

Because Zelensky is a globalist puppet. That is why the corporate media is rabid in their support of him regardless of his support for Neo-nazi elements in their military. Their entire agenda was to weaponize Ukraine against Russia.

This is more plausible than anything I am hearing from MSM, appreciate your take
