The war is going great. dean-smile

Yet another horrifying scene which would be plastered all over network news if only it were happening in Russia instead.

It’s not “authoritarianism” if it’s happening in a US ally (or puppet).

    Despite Russia comitting the ultimate war crime and declaring war,

    I completely detest this argument, is it acceptable to sit on your hands watching civilians getting shelled by artillery on your border because they rightly voted to leave a fascist country?

    Of course Russia’s ruling class is not joining this conflict for the best reasons, but fundamentally it was Ukraine attacking it’s civilians that started this war.

      Yeah the russia ukraine war is definitely not a russia bad ukraine good situation. I think Ukraine is more in the wrong if you consider what the goals of a Ukraine victory were (disintegration of the Russian country, capitalist emiseration of its people, theft of its resources by capitalists etc.) I was just saying that as just an axiom.
