Holy fuck, obviously Russia isn't going to try and single-handedly take on all of NATO. They'd have to back off which is why the US is sending weapons instead of deescalation, because "defense" and weapons is one of the biggest drivers of the US economy.

Did you read the part I quoted? There's a lot that could be done to disable the Russian government instead of just trying to prolong the war.

Actually, what am I saying? It’s not like you’ve intervened. You haven’t established a no-fly zone, and you’re certainly not going to let Ukraine into NATO. The most you’ve done is send weapons, which only prolongs this. So maybe you do love it?

TRUE. Can we stop pretending like weapons will fucking solve this?

You're missing the point. The misinformation was that the AP didn't make that claim. It was not about whether the claim was true or not.
