What is the positive outcome of defending an authoritarian regime like Putin’s? I don’t see how that advances socialist goals in any way. I am learning that Zelenskyy and Ukraine are not as good as Western media describes, but I do not see how Putin is better. I’m interested in being part of Lemmygrad.ml, but not if it defends authoritarian regimes especially if they are not working towards socialism/communism. I want to work towards socialist goals, but I do not want to be used as a tool in some authoritarian geopolitical mess. Russia also gives me the impression of being colonialist but I’m not sure if that’s accurate
Just like the word “terrorist” nowadays - in the vast majority of cases these are not actual terrorists, but those who don’t toe the imperialist line. Cuba and its government, Hamas, whoever - are “terrorists” because the US says so, and they say so because they are enemies of said empire.
Will any people bet that the tankiejerkers will demand judgement of others according to the labels that Pax Americana attach to them in their hypocrisy?
