I disagree, there are good people on both sides.

Killing good people only leads to their children seeking revenge.

I don’t want my taxes to fund hatred between two nations.

You might say, “By that logic, the nazis would never have been defeated”. That’s true, but according to my moral values, I cannot accept my taxes funding the deaths of innocents and not oppose it.

There's a handful of good people in Russia. Case in point:

But obviously, comparing a nation of good people getting invaded by a nation of psychopaths invading them is absurd.

You might as well complain that police are "fueling hate" by arresting thieves. Which of course is a claim in western politics. By nutty psychopaths who are trying to equivocate good and evil.

"Nation of good people vs nation of psychopaths", that's a childish take Peter

The world isn't always shades of grey. Assuming it is is itself a childish take. That's the sort of morality "clever" 14 year olds come up with. Adults recognize that evil is sometimes real.
