What a colossally dishonest take. Being glad no American lives are being lost is not the same as disregarding Ukrainian lives. And it sure as hell doesn’t support the implication that withholding assistance to those struggling in the face of Russian imperialism is a superior outcome to the status quo that somehow respects Ukrainian lives to a greater degree.
(Personal opinion): It would be a better discussion by far to make a policy argument in good faith and be prepared to defend the likely outcome with logic and evidence, rather than bombarding the site with this drive-by libertarian agitprop.
