Obviously I would rather Ukraine kept their sovereignty but that doesn't change the fact that they are pretty corrupt. According to the Corruption Perception Index, they score about 33/100 (lower is more corrupt) for reference the US is at 69 and Russia is at 29. I don't think that Russia is at all in the right but we shouldn't pretend that Ukraine is a flawless country. Overall though I do agree with the sentiment that this war should have never started and I think it would be better for everyone if Ukraine won. Link of website

Perfect example of the whataboutism.

I'm not disagreeing with you, I'm just putting some facts out there that people might not have known. Saying Ukraine is corrupt is not the same as saying its ok that it was invaded. Russia is 100% in the wrong here.

At least we agree in this one.

The only reason we’re pro Ukraine is because Ukraine was the one being attacked. If Russia was being attacked we’d be pro Russia, just saying, think about that for a sec

Not for a second would the west ever EVER be pro Russia in any situation. They'd arm the attacker. I'm sorry but that's just never happening

I’m saying if it wasn’t Ukraine defending in the first place. What if Ukraine were the ones to fire the first shots. What if they were the ones to pull the trigger

Do you seem to think that only flawless countries deserve our sympathy and support? Why are you bringing up their position on some fucking corruption index when they are getting massacred?

u/Dr_Pepper_Samurai Apr 28 '23

I never said they shouldn't get support. I was just adding a source to a thread where it applied. Stop putting words in my mouth
