"We didn't care about the Ukraine in 2014 nearly as much as we do now." I don't know about that, we sure cared enough to overthrow their government starting with the first color revolution in 2004-5, so I think we certainly did care about Ukraine, .... but not enough, in the years from 2014-2022, to literally do one iota for their people. While we were getting them militarily up to speed in those years, Ukraine remained the poorest and most corrupt country in Europe.
Yes, we didn't care about the country, it was our own vested interest. Overthrowing the government was a self serving move. What I was saying is that in 2014 there wasn't an outpour of support for the Ukrainian people. We have a very strong emotional bond about this war. Ask people about Russia and the Ukraine back then and most would draw a blank. I fully agree with what you are saying as it is true. When I said we didn't care in 2014, most were less interested in it than now, as far as supporting the Ukraine. https://scheerpost.com/2023/01/30/caitlin-johnstone-what-the-msm-can-no-longer-say/
That is because the media portrayed it differently than now...very differently.
