Americans just want to feel good about war again. It's why we make so many movies about WWII and so few about Vietnam. After a half-century of unjust interventions and invasions, we found a conflict that, if you don't look to hard, can be portrayed as "good guys vs. bad guys". For both political and cultural purposes, Americans want to support Ukraine so we can tell ourselves we're on the "right" side of a war for once.
It is literally making me ill, and ready for that next nervous breakdown. It is so repulsive and perverse, it triggers my PTSD to watch people just sit by and let it all happen.
Ukraine Propaganda Keeps Coming
