Yeah sure. Count how many wars the US started and how many Putin did.

He is a power hungry lunatic dictator for sure, but Ukraine is on the US.

The US started more wars so Putin was allowed one more after Georgia, Chechnya and Crime? Is that your logic?

My point is that when we compare the two, one is vastly more megalomaniac and expansionist. And the one spreading its influence east, provoking Russia.

And the one benefiting insanely from the war, without caring at all about its "allies".

> My point is that when we compare the two, one is vastly more megalomaniac and expansionist.

The one that grew through conquest and oppression from a small city-state to the largest country on the planet that spans 11 timezones and still lusts for more?

Ahaha you are not serious yeah ? Are we talking that far back ? Okay. As opposed to a former colony that eradicated the native populace of the americans ?

I will not even continue the conversation.

What do you mean by "that far back"? Russian territorial expansion and eradication of the native populace are on-going events, not distant history.

Goodbye, keep pressing F5. Or you know, go and get some sun. It's saturday.
