    Did appeasing Hitler stop ww2? I’m advocating to stop ww3. That’s very reductionist of you, and not the truth at all. But you know that.

      Literally every single war since WWII has been justified by accusing the other side as being Hitler and being committed to endless expansion, including Korea, Vietnam, Kuwait, Afghanistan, and Iraq. Every single time, supporters of war deployed the exact same rhetoric you’re using now, despite the fact that in hindsight, no longer being immersed in the propaganda of the time, such claims were obviously untrue and absurd. It’s just a generic go-to that anyone can use to justify any war.

      But this time it’s different

        Russia invaded Ukraine for the the purpose of conquest. Evidencd by the fact that they annexed Ukrainian land. We didn’t start it. Ukraine didn’t start it. Russia started it. It’s pretty cut and dry. But keep shouting your Kremlin talking points.
