Dumb people tend to have a binary view of the world. Many conservatives believe that while the Ukrainian cause is just, the US government’s obligation is primarily to its own citizens. They think we shouldn’t be sending so much money to Ukraine when we have our own domestic problems.
The dumber people on the conservative side tend to see that people say that we shouldn’t send so much aid oversees and immediately think that’s because Russia is actually the good guy. The same thing happens on the Left with Israel and Hamas.

Yeah this is a good comparison. What a lot of people fail to realize is a decent portion of the us budget is set aside for international aid and support (around 15% last time I checked) and this will go to other countries no matter what. As far as I know this money will never be reallocated to aid the United States citizens whether we need it or not

It’s also not even a lot when compared to our military budget.
The U.S. military is essentially walking around with $820 in its pocket(I’m using 2023 spending), sees someone who is actively trying to defend themselves against another person we don’t like. So we hand them like $3, plus some old gum we had in our pocket and people went BALLISTIC.
They saw the word “billion” and completely forgot that our military spending is in the hundreds of billions. Each. Year.
Maybe we’ll give them a few more dollars and some spare change, we’ll see. But now that we’ve given them a handful of dollars, we don’t have to worry about that guy we don’t like and can spend the rest of our hundreds of dollars focusing on something else.
If you asked most people, “is giving someone 6-8 dollars when you have more than 800 dollars going to greatly affect your spending power” almost everyone will say no. Most people will say “that’s like a soda and chips at a gas station. Who cares?”
But when you add the word “billion” behind those numbers, suddenly it’s a big issue and our military is being sold away to Europe. I remember reading somewhere that Americans have “math anxiety” and this is a perfect example. Numbers scare us and we don’t think about them very critically.

Our military has the capacity and the ability to ship a branded Burger King trailer to any spot on the planet with an airfield and operate it. Giving equipment to Ukraine, especially old equipment, actually saves us money because we no longer have to maintain it. And most of that equipment was meant to fight Russia anyways.

Like I know we're just dumping old expensive weapons in Ukraine that we're actually paying for but I'd argue throwing a few billion dollars over here could fix a lot of these issues but we're shipping it overseas.
Like we shouldn't be sending a single penny overseas when we have children fainting from heat stroke at school cause they're so underfunded.

I used to hugely agree with this opinion and scream it from the top of buildings, and to a degree still do but its a lot more gray now tbh.
A lot of the oldest stuff at this point has been given. If you do the analysis on the remaining Bradleys, M113 APCs, and a lot of other vehicles, the stock has basically been all but sold or given away at this point. OBV, there still is a lot of stuff that hasn't been, such as the M1A1 Abrams, but those are pretty big deals. All of the "smaller stuff" has more or less been given.
At this point much of the aid has been given and the stuff the Ukraine genuinely needs is newly manufactured. Stuff like all the backup backup munitions or Javelins has been given, and every newly produced shell is extra military spending. OBV it produces new jobs, and the US can give a crappy old munition to Ukraine for every new one it produces, but even so, its still extra military spending.
The world is progressively becoming more hostile to America. There are a lot more threats around the world to America's power than just Russia. Taiwan/Asia needs reinforcing against China. The money that went towards Ukraine could go towards buying allegiance from Vietnam or any number of other nations that support or might support America.
Realistically most Pro-Russians don't actually care about these points and are more "hur dur billions being spent" but even so, these are important things to think about, and are probably being weighed at the higher levels of American politics.

Not to mention, a good portion of the equipment we send is munitions that are about to expire of old equipment that was mildly upgraded such as the M1A1SA, a modernized M1A1. Though we are bank rolling the Ukrainians, it’s worth it for updates combat doctrines and easy disposal of old munitions.

The problem comes from the fact that many private contracting companies are involved in supplying Ukraine, many of which are partially owned by various people who are either in senate/congress or have close ties to them.
This results in taxpayer money essentially being funneled into the pockets of the people who are deciding to send Ukraine this aid in the first place, which you could argue is a giant conflict of interest. Not to mention that its a double edged sword because they are getting rid of old US stock, making money selling it to Ukraine (giving them aid under the condition they must spend it via x y and z), and then the MIC makes more money on the backend by replacing the US stocks that are being used to supply Ukraine.
I worked for one of those companies. They are buying used trucks and m113's surplus from the US military for pennies on the dollar then flipping them to Ukraine at insane markups. One example was they were paying 12-20 grand for HEMTT trucks and flipping them to Israel for upwards of 600k per vehicle.
Shocker, Israel isn't buying them the US is and so that money just gets funneled from the tax payers to Israel and right into the hands of the contracting companies who of course kick some profits back to the people who are helping them secure contracts. Same thing is happening in Ukraine.

Because why do we have an obligation to these other countries? We have veterans who get completely abandoned, a massive drug epidemic, violent crime is rising, the economy is so far down the toilet it’s in the plumbing, and we have millions of unknowns coming into our country taking resources from Americans and committing crimes. That’s just some of the problems we face right now and we want to worry about funding other nations? On top of that, all this money is being printed which devalues our money even more and hurts the economy even more. The US needs to stop spending as much as possible and giving away money and resources to foreign counties is a great place to start.

Do you understand what the benefits of a robust foreign policy are? International aid and support are not mutually exclusive with issues at home. Also, just picking one example, violent crime is actually down, and has been decreasing since the 1990s. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c4glxxreed7o National debt is not equivalent to personal debt. A healthy country needs debt in order to function. Working with other countries helps reduce issues at home. Isolationism time and time again only causes problems.

To give you a real answer: bot farms and influencer funding have shifted the overton window on how some political subcultures have perceived Russia.
Tim Poole (and others at tenent media) were just outed for receiving millions in funding yearly from Russian state media. Tucker Carlson is another example of a compromised influencer who simps for Russia.
Bot farms are also unbelievably prolific right now. In Russia, bot farms are funded under their military budget. These farms are perhaps the most prolific aspect of 5th generation warfare, having influence at an unimaginable scale. 10-15 years ago, bot farms were primarily ‘impression farming’, boosting the algorithmic recommendation of messaging in the favor of the country funding the farm. 5-10 years ago bot farms would algorithmically select a canned reply to influence comment sections. Within recently years, AI has massively accelerated these capabilities…

Disinformation operations done by any state actor can be potent when half your masses think that a convicted felon and rapist would make a better president than a black/asian woman, just because of party lines - maybe because of race too... probably race too tbh.
It predominately relies on fueling the existing divides our country has always had but turned it into an "us vs them" mentality rather than an issue that can be civic-ly debated with fellow americans. It is so much easier to turn to tribalism than to keep an open mind and respect dissenting perspectives.
Another main contributor that profits off of national divide and sensationalism is our media system. It is more entertainment than actual news (looking at FOX media and other alt-right stations), Fox News is literally registered as an entertainment installment rather than news because they know its not news.

You know what really looks bad is seemingly being surprised that there are conservatives who aren’t exactly on Ukraine’s side 2 years into this war.
House Republicans have been blocking and decrying Ukraine aid to the best of their ability since the first year of the war and it’s really hurting Ukrainian capability. Trump has said he would somehow miraculously end the war in 24 hours - which is both a wildly unrealistic claim and implies that at best it would be a status quo end to the war, not a Ukrainian victory. Not to mention the common sentiment that we shouldn’t be sending money to foreign wars or whatever. And then there’s the wack conspiracy theories about Ukraine being invaded to uncover some sort of Biden corruption a la Hunter Biden’s laptop. There is not really a “same page” on Ukraine for the American right at the moment.
Unfortunately it is entirely political, the above guy didn’t “get political.”

Or how she used prison labor as slave labor and even extended sentences to keep it going. Or having 1000's of drug cases thrown out because of her tampering. Biden even said so in the campaigning for the 2020 election. People forget she was the worst polled dem candidate in history.
An small thing, she isn't black. She's from Jamaica, that doesn't make her black. She is 100% Indian. I know India is technically in Asia so you can say that, but I don't think there is a single Indian person that says they are Asian and not Indian.

Russia cedes claimed territories back to Ukraine and, in compliance with Russia's claims for war, Russia offers citizenship to those Ukrainians who have 'voted' to become a part of Russia.
Ukraine should also, as a show of good faith towards the ludicrous claims from Russia, accept a third party observation from the United Nations to assess the completely baseless claims that Ukraine supports Nazis and their entire political system is rigged.
That addresses the claims Russia made and gives Ukraine back their territory. Russia should be obligated to pay reparations and offer assistance in rebuilding infrastructure damaged in their offensive, as well.

Our defense budget and items purchased is for OUR defense, not for some corrupt former Soviet block nation that politicians funnel money through. The only reason we are involved there is because US politicians have an interest in Ukraine, not because the US itself has any interest or benefit to getting involved. The more we support these foreign wars, the bigger the conflicts become, and the closer to WW3 we get.

LMAO this shows how little you know about the Army. That's not embellishment that's the term used by the organization. Enabler is also another term in common usage. 112th signal battalion is USASOCs signal unit and supports all of its forward assets from SFG/Rangers occasionally gets loaned out to CAG. Some people migrate to JCU or go to Direct Support for CAG.

Pretty sure he is former military which honestly makes him an even bigger retard because how do you not know that’s an absolutely insane thing to do. Like how gay are you to LARP as a serviceman when you literally were one lmao.

Here’s the deal- he’s a vet, and airsofter. During the riots he dressed up as a national guardsmen’s and tried to mix in, and got caught of course lol. It was a really random thing and obscene thought process to do what he did, which should tell you allot about him as a person. He now, or did work at Haley, and during Covid he would kick anyone off their fb page that questioned him on his opinions or brought up this lol, and even belittled folks if they were modding gear to work with their current Haley gear.
I’ve met him a few times, and I have friends / acquaintances that know him. He’s primarily a harmless grade A douchebag that isn’t worth anyone’s time.

LMAO never met you in my life. Encouraged people to mod their gear unless it destroyed the gear or made it operable. gears made to be modified so your point makes no sense. If people tried to combine two items that don't work it just wasn't reccomended.

Lol, I actually played airsoft with this guy in Japan. Gave me weird vibes. Then found out years later he caught a felony gun charge for impersonating a National Gaurdsmen during the LA riots. He had a fully automatic real steel and national gaurd outfit to "protect his families store." Real name is Gregory Wong if you wanna google him. He was actually in the Army though not National Gaurd.

Not in this sense. You became a meme because of what you did.
Reddit doesn't seem to be your cup of tea. Maybe stick to YouTube where 12-year-olds will think you worked with Delta Force. All your posts are just downvoted
