A few Western leftist intellectuals still support war with Russia in Ukraine. They may believe that helps expand homosexual, atheist and aborter hegemony Eastward while reducing overpopulation with war casualties.
Historically the west were carpet baggers taking Russian land when they were weak at the end of Cold War 1.0 That was hubris perpetrated by opportunistic legalists ill informed about real politik and the will of people to recover from victimization. Several historians wrote that a time of reckoning would come. Democrats only needed to adjust the land theft to a more fair and balanced position. Instead they swoll to expand N.A.T.O. Eastward expanding the new EU ego with it.
