The USSR spread socialism by force though, did the not? Weather your spreading democracy or socialism, using tanks and violence against an occupied people seems bad to me.
Afghanistan was invaded by western powers multiple times and USSR actually respected Afghanistan and formed diplomatic relations. But of course we can’t have that so the US Empire through CIA funded terrorists to overthrow the government back in the 70s.
As usual it is your fucking projection that sees the USSR doing what your favourite western empire does.
Spreading good things is good, spreading bad things under the guise of spreading good things is bad. The USSR said they were spreading socialism and actually did so, the US Empire claims it spreads democracy but actually spreads genocide and violence, in order to establish imperialist relations.
The soviets intervened at the request of factions in Afghanistan that had already taken power, though had not solidified it. They did not establish a colony nor expropriate wealth.
Just so I’m clear, are you saying a majority of the Afghan people wanted the Soviets in Afghanistan? Because that’s not how I understand the situation being.
The legally and internationally recognized government of Afghanistan requested the Soviets for help many times until they decided to help them out. Literally google it.
Sounds like at least a nazi sympathizer yeah but in case anyone else is reading it might help them learn more about the topic, which is very complicated ofc but definitely not “USSR bad”

Spreading anything by taking and maintaining control over a territory and its people is by definition, colonialism, is it not.

Also, was my definition of colonialism wrong?

I think the dude is quite literally a descendant of Nazis considering his other post.
