BTW, what is the score of the Russia/Ukraine match? The press hasn't been reporting on it.

Probably because "Putin's War" is more and more going his way.

I've been busy with other stuff but couple of things...
Looks like the Russian thrust into Severodonetsk has stalled. They had aimed to encircle the city but apparently failed at that and are taking a beating trying to take the city.
Ukrainian counteroffensive in Kherson had some early success but reporting on that front has slowed a bit.

Also when we hear news of Russian successes context needs to be taken in account...
This has been the Russian experience since opening the conflict;
1: Launch Operation
2: Enjoy initial success
3: Lose Momentum
4: Failed Operation
5. Launch Smaller Operation
6. Repeat 2-5

The chances we are getting reasonably accurate information in the US are 0%. They war mongering neocons, corrupt democrats, bought and paid for media, and imperialistic IC have been lying about Russia and the Ukraine for almost 20 years now. They aren't suddenly going to start telling the truth about what's going on and why now.
IMO there are NO GOOD GUYS in this conflict.
They are ALL BAD.
IMO good people in the US should simply hope the bad guys on both sides don't kill too many innocent Ukrainians until they come to their senses.
The bad guys on our side promoted it by interfering in the internal politics there and using it as a money laundering operation for their corruption and other crimes while trying to bring it under western influence and Putin has taken it way past what was necessary to ensure his defense and help any Russian speaking people there that wanted out or that were being persecuted.

I know with 100% certainly I am right.
I think I'm in the minority because x% of the people are still very young and haven't figured out they are being lied to 24 hours a day 7 days a week "yet" and most of the rest are too foolish to figure it out.

Why would you not, at least nominally, support the country trying to stem off foreign invasion?

I took sides with my support of of Israel, everyone else has to fit into my support of Israel. So I really do not need to pick sides here, it might make for posts here but my interest is not here. I fail to see a United States national interest, much downside with several morons and globalist feeding Biden what can be real blunders going forward. So no thanks so you two carry on with your ying and yang.

it won't be long until Biden sends a few BILLION more for kickbacks and give Russia the captured equipment to reverse engineer.
