You obviously see the world in black and white. Someone can be not justified in doing something yet have reasons for doing them, just like how someone isn’t justified in physically beating someone up over words but you could see why it’d come to that, depending on the words and the situation. “I would simply not invade” is a braindead take for something as vast and complicated as geopolitics. Seriously, put some thought into your worldview. You have about as much nuance as a picture book for kindergartners.
Then again, your stance appears to be “I guess if the US wants to be the sole superpower we should let them” Then you follow it up with literal CIA propaganda about “the people” wanting this or that. Golly gee the people have spoken here https://www.theguardian.com/world/2004/nov/26/ukraine.usa and here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WV9J6sxCs5k
That would be like saying “the people” wanted Jan 6th to happen but the big bad government quashed the people’s movement.
I guess Russia had better invade us so they can ensure we do the thing we actually wanted to do all along, but at gunpoint!
