Because Ukraine does not fit the rubric that many Millenial/Gen Y "intellectuals" use to describe the world - Intersectionality and Settler Colonialism/Imperialism. If Ukraine was populated by People of Color, the rioting would never stop. It's part of the toxic narcissism/identity politics that has given the left such a bad reputation. Who cares if a bunch of white Europeans blow themselves back into the Stone Age...it's not trending on their social media...These are the same people that are shocked - shocked - to have supported Trump because

"Kamala didn't say she'd end the war in Gaza", only to see Trump recommending full ethnic cleansing of Gaza and having Bibi Netanyahu as his first foreign head of state visitor. Hope they're all happy with what they voted for - or got by not voting.
