    There are plenty of evil things US has done, but in this particular case this is morally the right thing to do.

    In 1994 after Soviet Union fell United States, United Kingdom and Russia promised Ukraine that they will respect their borders and won’t use military or economical means to impose on Ukrainian borders.

    This was broken by Russia several times, it was largely ignored by the west though, until 2022 when Russia decided to go for the entire country.

    Before the invasion happened US did something it never did before. After few months alarming that this is what Russia was doing it ultimately specified the date of planned attack once again urging putin to reconsider. Biden gave putin an exit. He could call Biden senile and said that was just a training. Of course that wouldn’t fool people who understand geopolitics but it would work for general public inside and outside of Russia.

    Why West cares about Ukraine? Because a nearby war is not good for business and affects neighbors economically as well. Second thing is that Ukraine was a first major step. When many ignored Foundations of Geopolitics, this move solidified that putin truly was following that idea and won’t stop on Ukraine.

    I don’t think they care, Russia is no longer communist.

    To explain what I mean. I noticed that while term “tankies” is accepted as a term to refer to communists (particularly communists that would defend use of tanks on civilians), today’s tankies are also defending Russia which isn’t communist anymore (it’s more fascist than anything). Even those on lemmygrad. It feels like it never was about communism, but it always was about totalitarianism and Soviets.

    I have static IP and needed to get a business plan to obtain it. I am actually wondering if there’s place where I can set up a tunnel (that would work with freebsd) and then I could use cheaper, customer based plan.

    My problem is to get something that wasn’t abused by spammers. I don’t plan to send any advertising, it would be low volume, since it is just for my and my family.
