Back when iraq was invaded, Saddam was the aggressor who bad WMD, it all turned out to be a lie.

How do you know that American government is telling it's citizens complete facts about Ukraine war?

Yes I know Russia is the aggressor here and I am completely against the invasion. However, everyone knew that NATO expansion will trigger a war and US actively pushed for it. American governments hands are not clean when it comes to Ukraine war and American citizens don't question it at all.

Which brings me to the cartoon here where if you say the above mentioned statements you will be called a tankie, Putin bootlicker etc.

It is none of Russia's business which group Ukraine joins.

of course you are right. because this is high school and not eastern Europe with a complex geopolitical history.

No tankie, it's very simple. Russia is an imperialist nation. Should've been given a foot up their ass when they annexed Crimea.
