    Striking Russia while making a peace deal? Stupid. A lot of people may die because of this action.

      As if Russia stopped strikes on civilian and military targets during previous talks. Only language Russia understands is power.

    Drone attacks during peace negotiations, yeah i do wonder if this will escalate the conflict… The contradiction is crazy

      Russia never agreed to a ceasefire. This drone strike was completely justified because Ukraine is still being invaded. Russia is the agressor and all they have to do to make the conflict stop is a agree to a peace deal. Putin has refused to do so. Get your facts straight

      Bringing the war closer to Russia the Russian people will force Putin to make a peace deal. That’s how war works. I don’t listen to the people who lost the Korean and Vietnam wars, and who gave away Eastern Europe to the Communists. Putin’s a dictator but he’s a dictator who wants to stay alive and keep his power so he won’t go nuclear. He knows how to scare weak Democrats.

    How stupid can you be to call a terorist attack a “drone strike”? How effing dumb can you be to not know the simple basic rules of any war? What ukraine is doing by these “surprise attacks” as they are called by western propaganda…are by the book terorist attacks. Simple. How the f can you encourage such things when in paralel they want peace talks???

      Attacking military targets in a war is not a terrorist attack!

Tami Pyfer has five kids who belong to five different political parties, and sometimes family conversations get heated. Drawing on her work as a former policy advisor to the governor of Utah, she wanted to find a healthier way for people to talk about politics without contempt. The result is the Dignity Index: an eight-point scale that measures the language we use to disagree, aiming to ease political divisions. What score do you think your last conversation would get?
