    I'm glad this peacekeeping operation isn't targeting civilians. This is an apartment complex.

    Haven't read this thread and don't follow politics like this as much as I should, so tell me, are there any people who support Russia doing this? Do the Trump Supporters/Pro Guns/Anti-Vax/Anti-Abortion/Pro book burners side with Russia on this........ or is everyone unified in how bad this is?

    Honest question to somebody who seems to know what's going on here.....how does this affect/effect me? To somebody like me who isn't very informed, This feels no different than Afghanistan or Iraq or any other war on the other side of the world. This even less so because we aren't involved YET. But honestly how does this impact my daily life?

    This is the only place I've read/watched/clicked on anything about this "war".

    I honestly don't know enough about what's going on. It's bad, but I'm not sure what the endgame is here.

    Yes, they support Putin. Trump was praising him. There are some Republicans are unified with Democrats in that they back Ukraine in this.

    The threat is global thermo-nuclear war. Essentially the end of humanity as we know it. I don't think that will happen, but it's certainly a possibility with a wack job like Putin.

    Well, this could get nuclear. And it can reshape the world.

    This could also affect your daily life through more inflation and higher energy costs.
