Weakening the enemy and getting Intel at a fraction of the cost with someone else’s boots on the ground. Then there’s looking good on the world stage and strengthening relationships with allies. They’re also getting rid of old gear to swap for new. It’s cheaper giving it away then dismantling it.
This isn’t “world police” bullshit. The US is taking advantage it.
Exactly. And if this war does expand to NATO vs Russia (which segments of Russia seem to really want and others rightfully fear), it will involve fresh NATO troops with tons of weapons and intel as to how to use them for maximum damage vs tired Russian troops with limited supplies/ammo.
Assuming such a hypothetical scenario doesn’t turn nuclear (which, admittedly, is a big assumption), the US/NATO would be a much better position for having supported Ukraine. In fact, it might prevent such a war because Russia might have been so weakened by the Ukraine conflict that they don’t even try to attack a NATO country - knowing that they’ll be soundly defeated.
That it absolutely fucking disgusting! Saying the death of someone else is ok so the profits of companies like Blackrock, Boeing, Lockheed, etc are protected. You have lowered the value of someone else’s life to chattel
Chattel is usually less expensive because they are not seen as human with human rights. If the US wants to go to war they need to send their own people to die
They aren’t chattel. They are people fighting to defend their homeland from an aggressor nation. Are you suggesting Ukrainians would be better off under the Russian yoke? Look at how the Russians treat their own citizens. Let’s not pretend we are forcing them to defend themselves. We’re are enabling it.
If the US and the terrorist organization NATO stayed out of Ukriane there wouldn’t be war. If the US honored their agreements there wouldn’t be war. As the NATO chief recently pointed out this war is 100% provoked by NATO and the US
Yeah they just outed themselves as a troll not to be taken seriously. I need a Lemmy app that lets me tag people with a note so I have an alternative other than blocking.

This is “world police” shit and we should be the world police.
Yeah, why should I care if another family’s son dies for “freedom?” /s

Oooh look at me. I’m CommieTrash and I’m outraged!!!
I’m not outraged, I’m disgusted by BlueMAGA posing as progressive.
Scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds
Oh yes. You’re outrage is palpable. Always outraged. Leading the outrage rush on whatever the outrage topic of the day, right ya fucking retard??
Your constant use of that word suggests you may be projecting
Or maybe youre just a fucking retard
This is framing it in the terms Republicans say they care about. “It’s too expensive!” “No, it’s a fucking bargain. What else you got?”

This doesn’t sound ridiculous at all, CommieTrash
