So the meme isn't a strawman, you just don't like discussing what online randos say.

Forgive me for being wary of letting online randos run amuk and uncontested after the events of [checks notes] 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023.

Then why are you bringing that up to me? I wanted Ukraine to win, I wanted Russia expelled!

The meme is fucking stupid, the US military has been leaking to the press for while now. Ukraine will have to give up territory, aka compromise. And all users like you can do is complain about other users on our social media platform.

... as opposed to... complaining about users complaining about other users?

When I see memes blaming the powerless for a humanitarian disaster, I'm going to speak up.

If a rando has a bad take on Ukraine, tell them. But these strawman memes are designed to pull our attention away from what's actually happening. Are you averse to challenging power, because it feels that way to me.
