So many US empire simps here mistake opposition to their evil, and counterproductive diminishment of Americans and Europeans who simp for the empire, as supporting the Russian non-empire who needs to defend itself, and understands fully, despite any absurd propaganda to the contrary, that it needs to defend itself from US empire attempting to demonically diminish it.
Your propaganda bubble means you cannot and will never have nice things, including any climate supporting human sustainability. Heads are so far empire ass, that advising you it stinks up there, only makes you understand it as an order to move to Russia.
Stalin says to Kropotkin: "The difference between us is that you're an aristocrat while I'm from the working class."
Kropotkin answer: "True, but we also have something in common: We are both class traitors."
The Americans built their empire by forcibly taking over the lands of other peoples, extinguishing their cultures and languages, and forcing them to adopt the cultural traditions of the empire in the name of patriotism!
Meanwhile, China and Russia got that big by... uh...
Simping for any government leadership is just gross. These people don’t actually care about protecting the working class; they just want power, money, and recognition. As soon as you put a human into that role, they corrupt in one way or another. It’s why I clarify that I support the struggling working class under any ruler. The fight is always about them and ensuring they have human rights and a right to self-determination.
Every person I’ve met in my lifetime that lived under communism had nothing good to say about it, and they were all working class. Some pasty white dudes in America don’t know shit about that and never will. They get into a fantasy loop because living under capitalism fucking sucks, and dreaming about something perceived as better is understandable.
I recommend people read Marx and keep trying to unite the working class. Take the good pieces and stop idolizing people. As soon as you idolize a person, you are incapable of being able to identify when they do or say something terrible.
You can tell the election is over because liberals have switched from "you must full throatedly give your support to genocidal fascists because they're the lesser evil" back to "how dare you give any critical support to the lesser evil, you tankie!"
The west whine about electoral interference but sends John McCain to ukraine to support the protesters. Imagine their face if Medvedev came during BLM protests to capitalize on people discontent. Their hypocrisy is starting to show.
It's the same empire, idiot. Who do you think sent Yeltsin in the first place?
Sponsoring fascists and then whine when they bit the hand that fed them is the west's specialty. It happened in Russia, it happened with Iran, it happened with Afghanistan, and it will happen with Syria.
