We the ordinary people, we don't care about nukes and geopolitical issues so much, why we are in this now? I will not lay my life for geopolitical issues nor Ukrainian people should be forced now to lay theirs. Lets invest hugely in fusion and move away from damn oil so all of this goes away...

Geopolitical issues can have a huge effect on the daily lives of citizens, as we’ve seen from the sanctions so far. All citizens should have the power of collective self-determination, and this includes the foreign policy of their nation.

In a democracy, governments are accountable to their citizens. So if the war against Ukraine bothers you, you should contact your representatives within your government to do something about it.
