MODERATORS
While i share you criticism for "liberal" (particular in the American sense) warlust in general, we cannot look at the current situation without acknowledging the russian agression. And Putin is most certainly not a liberal.
The spillage of blood is a valid criticism in so far, that the West was reluctant to support Ukraine properly, only tossing lifeline after lifeline, dragging the war out.
If you're so opposed to NATO, do you side with Russia then? Don't they do the same, on a larger scale and more openly?
Do you side with neither? Is siding with neither not accepting aggression with all its consequences?
What's your alternative? Your solution?
Empowered the nazis to take the sudetenland...wait no, we aren't making that mistake again and that's pissing you off. Russia is nazi Germany and Ukraine is czechoslovakia here. The parallels are so close it's frightening
The world isn't black and white and there is no good guys vs. bad guys. The opponent of a bad guy is not autmatically a good guy.
So does Russia.
You don't need to side with any one imperialist. Just with the Russian anti war movement, i.e., the people most repressed in this current situation.
