On some level I kind of respect that dedication, even if this person’s clearly not thinking things through.
Most people in this country are keyboard commandos who support any war that their preferred news program tells them to until someone wants them to go fight it.
Yes, I’m criticizing. I’m anti-war, and I’ve always found it silly how people in our country view war like they do a football game, and the only time we’ve ever seen any real resistance to foreign entanglements is when we made people go fight the war themselves.
But if there’s a widespread enlistment and Americans do explicitly sign up to go fight for Ukraine, however unlikely, I’ll gladly change my position.

If you feel so American you think it’s time to overthrow the government, then how does joining the Russian military factor in?
From where I’m sitting it doesn’t look American at all but like you’re the personal follower of a single man.
I’d be really interested in seeing this man’s mental health evaluation.
I have a feeling the answer starts with a

So you think when an imperial country tried to invade another one against the people’s will they should just accept it?
There are many more americans in Ukraine’s foreign legion than the Russian.
Oh the irony. And no, Ukraine has every right to defend themselves. I just don’t support US involvement.
I certainly believe it, because our government always lies to us about our involvement in foreign wars.
