  • look man, yes - there are fascists in ukraine (but not too many and they can’t dictate shit) yes - ukraine has a weird relationship with it’s past yes - nato basically expanded to russia’s borders yes - a newspaper called kyivindependent will try to paint russians as monsters (despite the fact this particular case factually happened)

    BUT this war doesn’t benefit the workers of either countries. this war caused the death of about 1 million people, be it young conscripted russian men, ukrainian men, civilians on either side etc. it doesn’t matter. it’s 1000000 lives lost and for what? no sane person will say the “denazification” is a valid reason, same as the “fight for the native russians stuck in ukraine” and less so the “fight against the fascist regime” the invader is a country led by slimy opportunists who privatized everything after the fall of the soviet union. and the invaded are basically the same but cozied up with “le evil west”

    i’d be willing to understand your viewpoint if you sent me theory that supports your view. because i haven’t yet read any that compelled me to dehumanize a group of people or a country and support either side of a war with clear economic interest.















  • maybe i´m in the wrong but in my research i came to this conclusion: after the fall of the ussr the russian federation didn´t really jive with the idea of it´s neighbouring country being independent. they invaded chechnia and georgia. as a response other neighbouring countries were like “fuck that” and joined NATO for their own security. russia interprets that as aggressive nato expansion which is just one of the reasons why they invaded. the other reasons are as officially stated: -ukraine needs to be denazified -russia wants to save russian speakers from whatever -putin claims ukraine is not a real country


  • nato propaganda is “we need to send tons of arms so ukrainians can defend their country” but even if they defend it it´s gonna end like this: ukraine - a country with a gdp of 42 billion $ in 2014 took up soo much debt it could never repay it after the war. it´s gonna privatize all assets, multinational corporations come in and swoop everything the state can offer. ukraine will be denied entry into the eu. ukraine will be a financial slave to the imf, america and the eu and it´s gonna get exploited for cheap labour while ukrainians will be treated as 2nd class world citizens due to their non-eu passport.

    i got heated up. i apologize if i made assumptions about you. my point still stands: russia is spreading misinfo like crazy and OP keeps reposting it.



  • i know my solution is unrealistic. but for the regular worker it just doesn´t matter whether they are wage slaves for an indebted country where western corporations buy all privatized assets or live in an oligarch-led state. the regular worker just doesn´t want to get bombed or get caught in crossfire. the war must end no matter the outcome or which side has to make which concessions.
