Because Russia == Trump in their deluded minds. Russia is evil because Trump is evil. Anyone or anything that stands in the way of Russia is therefore just as virtuous and pure as "The Resistance" that opposed Trump, lawfully or not.
Trump Derangement Syndrome, Russia Derangement Syndrome, same Mass Formation Psychosis root cause.
Yup, for some reason, in these people's minds, every single thing they hate - and this is not a short list - are all merely facets of the same problem.
Surely you'd understand why people in Eastern Europe are concerned about this, right? Russia invading another country raises all sorts of alarms in the Baltics, Poland, Romania, Bulgaria, Georgia and so on. So not, it's not just Russia and Ukraine's fight.
What is in the OP is organic because this is the main thing happening right now. It's at a much larger scale than in 2014 and it's the first major European conflict since the Yugoslavian war. Of course it's going to be headlines everywhere and that will reflect anywhere else. Most sites that are politically-related are now inundated with this topic.
It made me even register here, after having lurked for a long time and I was even part of the original GG-related subreddit, which had a misspelling on its title. That's the state of it. It's a major thing.
Interestingly enough, I've seen more "IDGAF about Ukraine" and "Putin is not our ally" posts and comments over the past few days than I remember seeing in the last year or so. But that's just my personal take, I haven't been keeping a scorecard.
My interest in the conflict is that I'm surprised now many NPCs care, and it looks like good "crack in the window jam" along with Afghanistan to showcase how Biden completely fucks up the world stage. A political slant, sure, but if it works I'm not squeamish about pushing that spot.

Doesn't matter to the NPCs. This is like SJW wokism. SiLEnce is Violence. Saying you don't give a shit is the same as saying you're not an ally so you're an enemy to them. YOU HAVE TO CARE AND AGREE WITH ME ITS AN INJUSTICE YOU PSYCHO!!1
Yeah I've seen a lot of "does this mean Putin and Trump were working together against the cabal / deep state" stuff.
No, Putin and Trump weren't working together. At all. On anything. Obama was working with Putin when he had "more flexibility after the election". Bush, Obama and Biden have each let Putin annex or invade a country.
I think alot of people on reddit are addicted to mass hysteria and it goes back before the plandemic. Back in 2018 when they were "repealing net neutrality" every sub had at least 1 post about it.
This Ukraine thing reminds me of Gabby Petito. Overnight, everyone in the world was obsessed with her despite never having heard of her ten minutes earlier. The news was constantly talking about her, Redditors were becoming hysterical over her death as if she was their own child, Faceboomers and Twitter idiots were changing their profile picture to "justice for Gabby". She was the most important person in the world for absolutely no reason.
Then, one day, they all just stopped caring. We never heard about her again. It was like humanity received an OTA software update.
People believe what the media tells them to believe. They feel what the media tells them to feel. They are NPCs.
No disrespect to anyone here supporting Ukraine, but the mass hysteria about the Ukraine thing is bordering on the psychotic.
Last week I couldn’t have pointed to Ukraine on a map. This week I’m supposed to give a shit about an internal USSR border dispute?
Reddit is clearly a branch of NATO psyop at this point.
Weird time to self own, lmao
That was to make it more palatable but he really wants to bring two eastern provinces into Russia.
Could also be China wanting to try and hurt Russia as much as possible through indirect manipulation via social media.

But you are the conspiracy theorist!
NPCBrain is real
Whats the case for putin taking over Ukraine, though?
With our countries wars, it seems kinda like afghan, so its been funny to hear folks like condoleeza coming out against it.
Aka Terminal Leftism
Are they wrong, judging by the amount of Putin shills in this place in the last few days?
Trump isn't related to Russia in any way, but this Trump-affiliated place is now infested with Putin shills.
This place might as well be a branch of the Kremlin at this point.

they have their msm shills pushing that this invasion is trumps fault

Putin was terrified of Trump.

then her ex turned up and was ded... whole thing was... kinda out there.
After more than 2 years of mass formation psychosis, are you surprised?
Kind of like COVID. A person can be smart and you can have a rational conversation but people are idiots/dumb and impressionable.
