      Yes, it’s literally non sequitur. And a very popular propaganda move: [country A] is good because [country B] is worse. In fact, it usually is not even relatively good if there’s a need for such ‘argument’

      What about “fascists bad”? Remember when the US coup’ed the USSR, liberalized everything and russians had nothing to eat for ten years?

      There is no distinction between putin ultranationalism and american jingoism. It’s the people, in ukraine, in america, in russia vs the warmongeres who want to send the people to get butchered because it’s good for the economy.

      You are the later.

        Nothing in your rant justifies Russia invading a sovereign country, murdering its citizens or deporting its children.

        Arguing agaist a nonexistent “pro US” stance and using it to morally justify Russia is exactly the kind of nonsense I was pointing out.

        “Nothing to eat for 10 years” is the find out part of Russia fucking around.

        They are no better than the Nazis. Exact same MO. Occupy countries through Imperalistic expansion, genocide the local population, and make simps like you eat up their propaganda.

        I look forward to the upcoming Russian collapse. Would be nice if they stop spreading nuclear weapons to terrorists like North Korea and Iran first.
