      As long as it damages any Russian efforts to justify their unilateral genocide… Bring on the cat pics.

        “I support fighting Russia to the last Ukrainian.”

        “It’s such a relief that I can finally channel my racism in a socially-acceptable way now that we are in a proxy war with Russia. Orc orc orc.”

          Russia literally invaded a democratic neighboring country. There was a lot of empathy for drafted Russian soldiers until their calls home were leaked and people started finding mass graves full of Ukrainian citizens. I’m not really sure what you’re expecting here?

            I expect the responses I’m receiving. I don’t respond expecting any change, I respond with the hope that once in awhile, someone may come along and read a comment that makes them question the narratives that they’ve been taught to blindly accept.

            I hope that people can look beyond the propaganda they are hit with and realize that continuing to support this conflict will do nothing to help the Ukrainian citizens. What it will do is create a situation where Ukraine is perpetually indebted to NATO countries and the companies within that wish to exploit Ukraine, further enrich the morally bankrupt military industry, and produce dangerous conditions that the Ukrainian and Russian people will be paying for with their health for decades to come similar to what we see in Laos, Iraq, and Afghanistan.

            Allowing comments with underlying messages and assumptions that dehumanize a people to go uncontested has already led to widespread acceptance of racism towards “the other,” which is something that is always unacceptable.

            I hope people will quit swallowing the tepid justifications for war that the rich and their puppets push. Splitting those of us who have to pay the costs of their destruction along ideological lines that don’t even get to the root of the problem wastes our energy on meaningless discourse and further stabilizes the dictatorship the rich have nearly the entire world under.

            The USA literally goes around the entire world invading countries. No one seems to care since I guess those countries are not considered “democratic” (i.e. western, white, blond-haired and blue-eyed) enough.

          Most people feel before they think. The fact you didn’t consider that leads me to conclude your definition of “reasonable” is flawed.

              You are naive and inflexible. That is unreasonable.

              Also that’s not the definition of reasonable. So you are inexact as well. Bad combination.

              Well that excludes you. You are incapable of understanding that these pictures help the animals and harm the ruzzian orcs. Instead you have filled this thread with your implicit approval of the orcs.

              Stop being a hypocrite. Be a better human.

      “Organized propaganda campaign”

      My guy hanging with animals, pets or former strays, is what bored soldiers do, all the way back to antiquity. Or at least is one of the more family-friendly things bored soldiers do.
