These silly "russians are the actual good guys" memes are so sad and silly. They want land and power they dont care who the ukranians are.

Nothing Russia could possibly do would ever justify supporting nazis

Have you looked at the Russian side? Strangely you only condemn the Ukrainian side, but not the Nazis in the Russian Russian one

"Whatabout the other guy" my tax dollars aren't supporting the other guy, quit making excuses and quit supporting fucking nazis dumbass

Perfectly fine opinion to have.

That's not what the tankies say though ;)

I'm the tankies and I'm saying it so no

Now I'm confused, so you do support Russia?

Not supporting Ukraine isn't the same as supporting Russia.

And supporting Russia in the context of the russian war in Ukraine is pretty much the litmus test regarding being at a tankie at the moment.

  1. What do you believe the Marxist take on the Russo-Ukrainian War is? Why?

  2. Do you believe the people of the Donbass region support Russia, or Kiev? Why?

  3. What do you believe Russia wants to get out of the war?

Let's start with those 3 questions.

Critical support for Russia in destabilizing the US, both are capitalist shitholes but the US is far more of a global problem. Current gov of Ukraine is a US puppet, no support whatsoever.

You can say someone is an instigator without supporting either but civilians are being killed that arent nazis or soldiers, which is not justifiable.

War isnt sports.

Idk what part of "nothing justifies supporting goddamned nazis" is confusing for you

[–] belated_frog_pants@beehaw.org 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Your inability to read.

The US murdered people en masse in japan during WW2, are they off the hook because nazi's were part of the axis powers and the US wasnt,

Dont be obtuse.More than one group can be bad at once. Ukraine having nazi's doesn't make Russia anyone to be supported. You can hate them both and you dont have to pick a side.

If one side is supporting nazis and the other isn't then the side chooses itself, provided you're not a fucking nazi of course
