An 8-panel Phoebe Teaching Joey meme.
The first panel is Phoebe from Friends saying "Russia".
The second panel is Joey from the same show replying with "Russia".
The third panel is Phoebe saying "has invaded".
The fourth panel is Joey repeating back "has invaded".
The fifth panel is Phoebe saying "Ukraine".
The sixth panel is Joey repeating back "Ukraine".
The seventh panel is Phoebe saying the completed phrase "Russia has invaded Ukraine".
The final panel shows Joey proudly proclaiming "NATO just started a proxy war".
Well, that would have involved hundreds of thousands fewer people dying and Ukrainians getting the thing they generally wanted, so... win win.
and a massive loss from Russia's perspective. The US has invaded for much less.
See here's the thing: whether the US has done something before has no bearing on whether Russia is justified in doing it.
See here's the thing: I didn't say Russia is justified in doing what it is doing.
