The 1-point peace plan👇

Sanna Marin, Finland’s former Prime Minister: “The way out of the conflict is for Russia to leave Ukraine. That is the way out of the conflict.” #press

@cbarbermd
I agree in principle.

That said, Marin has no skin in the game anymore, so this is no badass opinion, it's a cheap one.

I hate to say this with the risk to be called Trumpian by people who barely get the point, but we are in this situation due to Biden not supporting Ukraine fully from the beginning.

Wars like these historically either escalate quickly, something Russia likely is not finding any support to do, from China mostly, or they keep eating up the populations irreparably

@fabriziob @cbarbermd

you're confused as to the source of this quote

what c barber is quoting happened in 2022, when marin was PM of finland, and had all her skin in the game when she said it

[fabriziob@mastodon.uno]

@benroyce @cbarbermd
Oh well, then the post is badly captioned and the video is not really relevant to the present situation

[benroyce@mastodon.social]

@fabriziob @cbarbermd

it's 100% relevant and blowing up now because of the bullshit 28 point american "just surrender everything, and give russia everything it wants" hilarious bullshit

[fabriziob@mastodon.uno]

@benroyce @cbarbermd
It's just Americans getting what they want.
As I explained, Biden, in his own fashion, did just the same.

@fabriziob @cbarbermd

did you see my edit?

biden fucking sucks

but russia carries all the blame

if an asshole shoots someone and the cop stands there scratching his ass, the cop is a bad cop. but the cop didn't shoot anyone. don't transfer blame. that only makes the kremlin smile

@benroyce @cbarbermd

I never said Russia is not a batshit crazy medieval invader.
That is also expected of Russia and Putin by now.
No one, not even Italy is safe from Russia. Some of us always knew it.

Surely the US, at whose tit Finland and Sweden suckled forever, knew just as well.

Inaction remains the worst sin here. And this treaty is just more of that, inaction.

[benroyce@mastodon.social]

@fabriziob @cbarbermd

yeah inaction in the face of straight up malice is a horrible sin

still, that straight up malice is the original sin

you're not really saying anything i disagree with. it's just that these sort of arguments make the kremlin smile

because while we're sitting here apportioning blame, russia is lobbing another missile at a ukrainian apartment building

so all we have to agree on is stopping russia. and i think we do. so all is good

I organize weekly international gatherings.

In those, in front of an audience, I attack Israeli, Saudi and Russian people or supporters and support Ukrainian and Palestinian businesses as venues.

Americans actively avoid me.

I may have no friends, but I am morally and ethical very healthy.
