I'm sorry, it was the blackface that made me laugh.

It's easy to say "whataboutism" like it's a dirty word, but we should reflect on the actions of our leaders, and we should hold them to the same standards we hold foreign leaders too, in fact we should hold our leaders to higher standards when it comes to geopolitics. That's what being the guy goods is about... having higher moral standards.

I'm not saying we should turn a blind eye, but we should be looking beyond ending immediate hostilities and explore the reasons why we got to this point. If we want peace in this region, I think NATO has to stop expanding, or at least agree to not allow Ukraine to host missile systems. NATO need to come to the negotiating table. That shows good faith on our part, and puts the ball in Putin's court. Is this just about NATO? That's one way to find out.
