Finland is a small country, and it joined NATO without Russia so much as flinching. Ukraine is nothing like small. It's bigger than France, for instance, with almost 50M people. Attacking it was just plain madness.
Governments are a bad idea. That's the root problem. People are stupid for thinking they need a government. You don't need laws. Laws are designed to oppress. Think in your own life how many times the law harmed you vs helped you... Europe, Russia, Ukraine, USA. These concepts do not exist; they are fictions... But the fiction can kill you if you believe it; just like a schizophrenic having hallucinations; those can kill.
If the fiction doesn't benefit you; there really is no incentive for you to believe it, and you shouldn't... You can be sure it's benefiting someone else. Do you want to die for the people who created this nightmare reality?
Fictions... that allow you to have clean running water, own personal property and get an education? If you want to see what life looks like without a government, just look at Haiti. Gangs fill the power vacuum when the government loses its monopoly on violence
You're just describing an alternative fiction with a lot less public buy-in, which from the outside looks about as plausible as the Sovereign Citizen movement that became infamous a few years back.
Ordinary angle from people which needs to sound smart or have a need to relativize everything so they end up blaming the victim.
"Everybody is bad, nobody is good so then just stop bothering us with defending yourself. It would not hurt if you wouldn't even start in the first place"
Your own reading comprehension needs work. The commenter I was describing is clearly writing from their own perspective, and uses the word "they" to describe Ukrainians
No. It was Russias inability to accept sovereignty of Ukraine. How is that hard to comprehend?

Yes, we are in agreement that empires bully their smaller neighbours. This is bad, right? You agree that this is bad... right?

China is a good example for the US and Russia for what to do.

Organized groups which are created historically as opposition to another organized groups are bad idea or these are made up too?

Let me just try to understand your position here: Ukrainians are warmongers?
What does that make the Russians?

They really must hate Ukrainians.
Reading comprehension maybe? He obviously describing from their perspective.
