Stupid whining. There are reports of children who have walked days to reach the border because these convoys are just blocked. These cry babies were able to wait a little. I said women and children are the priority, which obviously means women with children first, if it this obvious thing was not understandable. This is very stressful situation and you should maintain your calm. When you loose it and start a tantrum, you are not treated well in such situations.

We should help them to get back their homes and country.

They are not immigrating, they are fleeing.

But if we can give people work that they can continue when they return home, then it would be good probably.

Let me elaborate it to you - you need to update your calendar. It is not 1980 anymore, it is 2022 and Ukraine is independent country who is willing to join EU and NATO. This is their choice and nobody has any say in this.

And you are right. This is an ideological question. A principal question. This is why we are backing Ukraine against aggressor in this illegal war.

"Having the U.S. risk global nuclear annihilation over Ukraine is an indescribably insane view, as one realizes upon a few seconds of sober reflection."

No, it is not. Loosing Ukraine to Russia means imminent danger to whole Europe and from there U.S. This war is existential.

Letting Russia know that nuclear retaliation is very real possibility forces Russian establishment to reconsider current situation and options.

Putin may be (or maybe not) crazy, but the whole Russia is not and Russians understand real power very well.

I prefer not to die in nuclear Armageddon, but I do not want live in Europe constantly threatened and sliced or worse, concurred and destroyed by Putin.

Only winning strategy is MAD. If using nuclear option comes into question then powers helping to defend Ukraine should make it very clearly known that any use of nuclear weapons by Russia will be retaliated by full nuclear response. If there is doubt, then probability of actual nuclear weapon use will grow exponentially with every day this conflict is dragging on.

Bullshit. There is nothing strategical about this piece of land. Germans needed to annex this because they needed access to oil because they really were running low of it. Russia has much more natural resources than in this small area.

It appears to be an Ukrainian thing. That most likely explains no following in Twitter. It looks like it started as air pollution map/monitor but at some moment they added radiation map. It is in the menu options on Ukrainian version but obviously is not recorded by Archive. It appears first already in October 2021 but there is large cap between previous dump from August where it is not present.
