The liberal brainwashing is complete, they're as rabid as neo-cons.

It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Mostly pro-Russian areas go to Russia and the war ends? Yeah sounds fine to me. I would say it doesn't make all that much a difference which capitalist oligarchy they're living under, but Ukraine is probably going to be fucked over economically by the West (while trying to recover from the war) for long after the war is over, so being part of Russia is probably better for the people. Ukraine has already started privatizing assets they don't even control. Also the Nazis probably won't take too kindly to the people who accepted Russian rule in order to live their lives like normal ("collaborators"), so throwing them into the hands of those Nazis might not be great.
I don't know what Russia is willing to accept at this point, but best case for Ukraine is giving up Crimea, getting the rest of the land back, and giving autonomy to the Donbass. Which yeah that might be alright too, except for the concerns I gave above. There would definitely need to be some guarantee for the safety of the people in those regions, especially the DPR and LPR. I doubt Russia would accept that anyway. They would have at the beginning of the war, but probably not now.
