Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

War is never money well spent. It may be necessary, but it is not well spent; churning over war machines isn't a positive. Defending Ukraine is important, but thinking it's a good thing seems like you are glad there is a war. Are you suggesting that you are glad Russia invaded?
Very few people WANT a war in Ukraine. But as China keeps adding dashes to their map, it's pretty clear there's a reasonable chance to be an even bigger war around the corner, whether we want it or not.
The Ukraine war woke the west up from its slumber, and it has allowed us to put the old stuff stuff cluttering our closets to good use, as well as test some new weapons concepts, and to get ourselves ready for the bigger conflict on the horizon.
If we are really lucky, China is looking at Ukraine and having second thoughts about kicking the hornets nest at all, saving a lot of lives on both sides.
If we are not that lucky, then Ukraine has allowed us to be much better prepared for the coming conflict.
So am I glad Ukraine happened? Not a bit. Can I see the silver lining thru the clouds? For sure.
You're a delusional warmonger, hundreds of thousands dead, and you are bragging about being able to see past it. That's pretty clearly deranged.
Lol, really? One can't control the fact that bad things happen. The west isn't forcing either China or Russia to claim territory that doesn't belong to them.
However, one can control how one reacts to said events. Help out where we can, and strengthen ourselves for the future.
There's that whole proverb about crisis=danger+opportunity. The danger is there regardless...if you fail to seize the opportunity presented, well, you are pretty much guaranteed to come out the other side worse off.
idk you seem like the delusional one with the idea that someone is gonna go " please mister Putin, please stop war?" and that he would listen
Yeah, that's not what i said but you do you and make up things.
ok so what DO you mean, I mean you are the one putting words in peoples mouths saying they are glad Russia invaded, so what exactly do you mean by it, that Ukraine should just let them take what they want?
