Controversial opinion but.

Ukraine isn't the only war going right now.

There's a civil war in Ethiopia and unnecessary bombing by Saudis in Yemen and killing kids there.

Why has this war affected you more than the other wars? Cause the people involved are white-ish?

See, all wars are bad. It's just so sad seeing normal people suffer. But, imagine supporting sending weapons to ukraine and pressuring Russia when your goverments are already doing full business with Saudis.

I'm not comparing wars. Every war sucks and should never happen, including when the Americans tried to control the middle East. I'm just pointing out the underlying racism.

There are no good guys in a war. It's always the civilians who suffer. This time, the civilians are considered white.

I think you are right about the racism, but there is a really obvious non racist reason why Western people care more about Ukraine, Ukraine is part of Europe so it's really close to home, literally and economically.

@SW-User so you're explaining that there's a non racist bias but also considering individualist bias where no one wants awar at their home front.

if the individual bias is what matters then everyone wants war to end immediately ASAP. As far as we have seen every action from the west points to a serious escalation of a problem that has been solved diplomatically a long time ago.

@Doometernal I'm saying that people care more because racism. They also care more because it's in the West and feel like it could be just as easily their home and could effect their lives more directly.
