Cheney is right, at least in my case. Who do I admire more, Cheney or Putin? Hands down it’s Putin. Cheney is a nut job that suffers from TDS. She doesn’t care about her party. She doesn’t care about America or Americans. Putin on the other hand is not the least bit crazy. He’s been very clear and consistent for nearly a decade that Ukraine should be a buffer state between NATO and Russia. The West has treated Russia like crap since the breakup of the Soviet Union. People like Cheney have been down right belligerent to Russia. Putin cares about Russia and it’s people. He is very calculating and quite clear in what his objectives are. I don’t fault him one bit. I don’t like NATO. I don’t like the expansion of NATO, not because I agree with Putin, but because I’m sick of America paying for everything. Ukraine is none of our business. Cheney makes it our business and hurts America and the world in the process. The world would be a hell of a lot better if Cheney never existed. With all that said, I don’t like Putin, I respect him. I loathe Cheney and I have zero respect for the bitch.
And here is the problem. You are NOT ALLOWED to just be objective and neutral and see the wrong on BOTH SIDES of this war. If you choose to not pick a side and are not all in for the official self righteous warmonger “Red Dawn the Russians are coming” narratives then you are also the enemy and a Putin lover.
This “you are either 100% for or 100% against” is ignorant. How about the objective 3rd option “neither because BOTH sides are wrong”.
