Perfectly fine opinion to have.

That's not what the tankies say though ;)

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.
