The Biden administration is asking Congress to provide more than $13 billion in emergency defense aid to Ukraine and an additional $8 billion for humanitarian support through the end of the year.
Countries aren’t people but they’re made up of them. It wouldn’t take nuclear weapons to annihilate your household.
Russia has invaded Ukraine’s home and tried to lay claim. Now you’re suggesting they give up what was taken from them to satisfy your desire for peace.
The analogy the other person used is fair. In another analogy Russia is nothing more than a bully. We’ve long moved past the time where the advice we give is to just give the bully your money so they don’t beat you up and take it anyway.
You were using an analogy where a bully threatens to beat you up and take your money.
That’s nothing like the current situation. The current situation is a nuclear armed nation is willing to wage an endless war and we’re throwing money and bombs and tanks at the problem trying to make it go away. You’re comparing small scale things to nuclear scale things and it’s really just absurd.

No, I wasn’t.

You’ve got an important word there. Scale.

Bullies also don’t have nuclear weapons.
Stop comparing people to countries. The scale makes it so absurd, because nuclear weapons could end the god damn world.
Uh, yes. Yes they do.

Well what’s that then!?
My quote, not theirs. Also Russia is a bully. Similar to the kind that takes lunch money, but on a much larger scale
You can’t just increase the scale and expect things to stay the same!
If those nukes are ever touched it’s the end of the fucking world.
And if a home invader with commercially available arms so decided it’s the end of your family. That’s how scale works.
But you don’t give in to a bully to avoid violence. That’s how you get more people/countries bullied.
This is not intended as a threat of violence. This is an analogy to make a point that should be obviousSomething someone else wrote.
