Of course, Russia could've not invaded Ukraine and let the US lure Ukraine over to the west purely through "soft" powers.

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.

Dunking on Tankies from a leftist perspective.

A tankie is someone who defends/supports authoritarian or even totalitarian regimes who call themselves "socialist". The term originated from people supporting the 1956 invasion of Hungary by the Soviet Union. Nowadays they are just terminally online, denying genocides, and falling for totalitarian propaganda and calling such regimes "true democracies". remember to censor usernames when necessary.
