It's embarrassing to see how many Americans are spouting Russian propaganda.
You've lost sight of what side you're on.
The US regularly supports and stages clandestine coups all over the world, and has been doing so since at least the 1950s. I can think of at least five off the top of my head, but the actual number is more like 80 (some successful, some not. Most pretty bloody though).
This isn’t even debatable. So you’re “arguing” the US totally didn’t do this in Ukraine, or that it was for their own good, or that it wasn’t for their own good but was good for US interests and if a bunch of Ukrainian citizens had to die when the US overplayed their hand, who cares?
Greater good? Can’t make an omelette without breaking a few eggs?
Are you even capable of engaging in “diplomatic empathy” for even a single post? Or is “Putin lover” the best you have? Going to lump George Keenan, Henry Kissinger, James Baker and numerous other US luminaries who warned against what’s happening right now in with the “closet Putin lover” crowd?
