I Just Don't Care, It's Not My Fight

Yesterday, I interviewed Scott Horton getting information as up to date as possible on what’s going on with Russia and Ukraine. Of course, relying on reporting that is run through a neo-liberal, New World-American/Israel order is troublesome. We get it, Putin is a bad guy, thanks. But that raises a question I beg everyone to ask; why should I care?

Sure, I don’t want people on either side to get hurt, and it’s always the case that innocents are injured or worse when militaries get involved, but still, not my bull, not my china shop. The thought that anyone reading this may have a loved one in the military who would be sent to the region in an attempt to repel a nuclear armed country from exercising power and influence in their own backyard makes no sense to me. It’s madness.

I am aware that in the current climate this makes me a Putin “toady”, or whatever nonsense people with IQs 2-3 standard deviations lower than mine are told to call me, but there’s no reason this is the USA’s business. Unless of course Ukraine must be protected so certain politician’s children can get 50K a month no-show jobs while banging Ukrainian hookers and hitting the pipe. I guess that’s as likely an explanation as there is out there.

Whatever it is, it’s none of mine/your business. And if you think it is, ask yourself why you believe that. I doubt most of the people crying about poor Ukraine could find it on a map or tell you the differences between the cultures of their western and eastern populations. But if you’ve been paying attention for the last 24 months you can understand why people believe this has anything to do with them.
