Föderation EN Do 27.02.2025 17:12:02 @wonka : that's an opinion we share - from our perspective. Trump is not going to "end the war" in an acceptable way, but wars do not end if nobody is prepared to compromomise. We've become too polarized on too many matters. Without accepting other perspectives, there will be no solutions. I too find it tough to write this, it really hurts because it feels unfair from my PoV. I believe Zelensky to be a lot smarter than both Putin and Trump. Both Ukrainian and Russian soldiers (or from other countries) and their families are exhausted, if not without legs or burried. Why? |

Föderation EN Do 27.02.2025 17:16:06 @ErikvanStraten What kind of compromise do you envision that doesn't leave any win to RuZZia? Where should Ukraine agree to step back from their demands, and why? |

Föderation EN Do 27.02.2025 17:45:08 @wonka : I honestly don't know and my personal opinion is irrelevant. This question should primarily be answered by the Ukrainian people. It is their land, not mine. The only thing I can do is try to help de-escalate and to remind everyone (those prepared to listen to me) that all of us have human rights. That is, everyone must have *the same* rights. We're lost if we stop respecting human beings whom we know nothing about. It is precisely the old definition of anti-semitism: hating *any* Jew, purely based on prejudice. It's racism: believing that you are a better person than anyone who differs from you in any way, EXCEPT for opinion and/or behavior. I don't have to like Muslims. I want to respect them, just as I insist that they respect me. However, If Muslims beat up a gay person or drive their truck into a mob, I refuse to hate them because they are Muslims. I *do* hate them for being idiots. Just like I hate Google for being evil (but that's another, albeit hate-related, topic). |

Föderation EN Do 27.02.2025 17:39:11 @ErikvanStraten @wonka @iju @Free_Press " I believe Zelensky to be a lot smarter than both Putin and Trump " One of the ironies about this, is that actors, by profession, understand what people are doing, saying, thinking. If not, they're no good at acting. 🙂 |
