Lots of Ukrainian refugees are native Russian speaker. I wouldn't overthink things if I were you

That's like saying BRICS is an aggressive organisation because of what Russia is currently doing... Not the same, but in a similar vein. Not all of NATO was involved in Iraq (many countries were opposed to it, and it may as well have been a US only operation). Afghanistan... There technically was a casus belli, but I'll agree the way the entire thing was handled was a disaster. The occupation following the initial invasion was, notably, a US thing, not a NATO one.
Ah right, forbidding everything that would otherwise require some common sense. Very German indeed.
"Progressive" is anyway a specific adjective that by itself doesn't mean much. Some Americans would call themselves more progressive than others because English is a (more) gender neutral language.
tbh this entire comment thread is trying to frame any discussion as being pro Russian. At least the pointless grammar bike shedding lets us know whom to block
Sure, but ask the global south about the war in Ukraine, and you'll realise you're looking into a mirror. Most "anti imperialism" I hear is just from people pissed they get the wrong end of the stick, not that there's a stick in the first place. The "west bad" memes just appear as virtue signalling without much substance.
The quote and your comment have nothing to do with one another
Why a loan though? Just give them the assets. Trying to put a leash on Ukraine shouldn't take priority over defending them
I normally like reading .ml comments because, despite disagreeing with most, I get to see a new perspective.
Well, yours here are not that. You just sound dumb.
Maybe if Germans stopped constantly betting on anyone that can undermine its neighbours to appease its own oligarchs, Europe wouldn't be in this mess. Germans would rather sacrifice every single east European than admit France was right. To their credit, this is probably less of a dilemma and more of an opportunity to them, so that was an obvious choice.
Your compassion is misplaced, the corruption of that racist genocidal country affect its neighbours first.
