    Russia is a diseased country that’s trying to spread its rot. Why they aren’t dealt with more sternly is curious to me

      because invading another country usually involves mass civilian deaths and should be avoided as a rule

        Nobody wants to invade Russia. Whats absurd is that we sit around and let them invade other countries. I understand the desire to avoid escalation but if all other avenues fail there should be a willingness among free nations to boot them out swiftly and efficiently and make it clear that their dreams of empire building are done and it’s time to get their house in order instead of distracting themselves with destroying others.

          there is currently an extensive international effort to not let them invade other countries

            Which is a nice change to their usual invasions of other countries.

            Of course if that could happen if anyone were to invade other countries, it would be nice.
