The
U.S. Air Force has announced that it is ordering AMRAAM missiles worth $1.15
billion from Raytheon Missiles and Defense to supply to Ukraine, the U.S. Department of Defense reported on June 20.
Warmongers being… the country currently undergoing a genocide from a global superpower? If you come to my home and shoot my kid, I’m not a warmonger for returning fire.
And the idea that the reason our programs at home are underfunded is a result of foreign aid is complete bullshit. They could fund those programs in a heartbeat at any time with or without a war. We could absolutely do both, the reason we don’t is because none of your politicians give a shit about you, unrelated to what’s going on in the world.

Here your kids are getting shot to death in schools, but as far as oppressive global superpowers go, read up on how the US has been helping Saudi Arabia starve and decimate Yemen for the last eight years. But, to be clearer, the warmongers I refer to are the ones taking a trillion of our tax dollars every year and funneling them into their own companies and the other eight wars we’re already hopelessly entangled in.
I’m all for Ukraine fighting this war… on their own. I just don’t appreciate seeing our people impoverished and neglected because of it.

False. Canada spends $23 billion a year on war. They have universal health care. We 100% lack universal health care because we’re spending over a trillion a year on war, and now, another $1,015,000,000 billion on another country’s war. (On top of the tens of billions we already gave them in charity.)
We’re not talking about Saudi Arabia and Yemen, we’re talking about Ukraine.

So you’re in favor of them being conquered and ethnically clensed. That’s what happens without material support from western powers.

The American people were impoverished and neglected before the war in Ukraine, and they will be after. Letting Russia wipe out a vulnerable ethic group won’t get you free healthcare.
Regardless, we could fund a universal healthcare system half a dozen different ways, and the American people would still save money not having to pay subsidies. The idea that it’s a hard thing to fund in the richest country in the world is one of the biggest lies i government. The reason we don’t have one isnt because we can’t come up with the funds, it’s that your politicians hate you and love pharma money.

You all said the same thing about Afghanistan. 20 years and several trillion dollars later, and it was 100% a waste.
So you’re in favor of them being conquered and ethnically clensed. That’s what happens without material support from western powers.
I’m in favor of my tax dollars going to keeping Americans alive for once, instead of being spent on yet another war we shouldn’t be involved in in the first place.

Agreed, and chief among would be spending hundreds of billions less on other countries’ wars, and also not being involved in eight of them at the same time.
The only thing you should be pushing for is the war to stop, but I think not helping is worse. Letting Russia take over Ukraine would be awful. At the same time, not pushing for peace 100% of the time is sad.
It’s also awful that tens of millions of Americans can’t afford to go to a doctor, but I don’t see you calling for us to spend less on war in order to bolster the welfare of our own people.

Yes, it’s such a shame that countries can’t fund two things at the same time. 🙄
It’d be really nice if our legislators would stop giving warmongers a blank check. We could use that billion in so many better ways here.

wdym I literally am lol I said we should aim for peace. We deserve free healthcare. But Ukrainians also deserve to not die too.
Not if it means our people have to die in their stead.
(And it does)

No more foreign entanglements!
Let me get this straight: Russia invaded Ukraine unprovoked, yet you think Ukraine is the “warmonger”?
