    What I hate about the whole “Ukrainians are Nazis” thing, well, two things. It deliberately ignores Russian Neonazis, who are also doing a lot of bad shit in the world. But they’re ignored because for Tankies, it is inconvenient that the state that is now just oligarchic capitalist might also host Nazis. Because their Anti-US position reduces it to a good thing, which is not very Marxist.

    And also. Like,sure. Ukrainians have a far-right part of their population, like any other country. BUT RUSSIA DEFINITELY HELPED IT. Literally, when you invade a country, you help its nationalist sentiments, which will result in more Nazis and fascists. And, by the way, Russia has united with the US in spreading far-right propaganda, so there’s that.

      I mean even if they are, invading a country to stop the so called “nazi” and then occupy their land and take their child, is kinda like a nazi move. People who hate US doing this to multiple other country should immediately see how stupid the action are, but unfortunately tankie aren’t very smart.

          Me when I’m making everything about the USSR. Like all I said was that modern Russia is far-right. I didn’t say anything about the USSR here. I have just said that they have the same goals as the US.

          But no, we have to throw everything on the US, how will fellow tankies see that I’m based and redpilled otherwise???

            Bitch please yeltsin was in washington a short time before the so called perestroika.

            Impressively bad history.

            You know the US and western capitalists spent 70 years trying to a sabotage it, yes? And now we’re back to nationstate and their endless wars.

            As we all know, the Soviet Union didn’t involve supporting nation-states or endless wars, certainly not both. /s
