But I do know that if people can’t ask questions in one place, they will go elsewhere to find their answers.

And if they truly wanted an unbiased, fact based summary of the reasons they really should go elsewhere like say a reputable neutral news agency. Around here the 'reasons' russia invaded Ukraine are unimportant. What are important are things like 'how many innocent civilians were unjustly killed by at best careless russian attacks yesterday?', 'how is the fight to repel the unjustified invaders progressing' and so on.

Wanting fresh water access and a naval base are no excuse for war crimes and disrespecting other nation's sovereignty and it is disingenuous to come here and start talking like it is.

You are right, I didn't realize this was a Ukraine magazine, this should be a safespace. I was out of line and it kinda justifies the aggression I got. I just clicked the post because it appeared on my kbin homepage feed and commented what was on my mind.

Anyway it was a rich experience.
