OPINION: NATO sucks, but cheering for Russia is unsolidaric

This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.

Rules:
Started by Putin or his group of bourgeois thugs is not important. It is done in their interest at the expense of the proletariat.
Yes it is.
I care about his rhetoric because many of the things he has said he would do, he has also done, some of which has been a tragedy for those bordering Russia. My post called supporting the war unsolidaric, and I still think it is. I think we should have solidarity for all people of the world, inside Russia, bordering Russia and everywhere else. The problem is people are dying unnecessarily for his groups capital gains and we should not be in support of that.
No, I think this is reductionist rhetoric from you. Putin is the head of government and no one ever rules alone, that goes without saying. Being head of government makes him an immediate symbol of the government he represents, that is kind of the point of being the head of anything. As such it is disingenuous to say that I talk about "great man" theory when I am indeed talking about the specific actions committed by a regime with him at the forefront. That being said, there is no way one can look at the politics of Russia and say that Putin is a weak leader. He holds much power and has much responsibility for what is going on.
I was not wrong when I considered this might be a controversial opinion here and I simply do not think it should be.
Okay but that describes every big decision made in a capitalist country. We moved from "started by an oligarch" to here.
Okay free to listen to the 1:10 ratio of signal to noise but you can get a more reliable idea of military biases from someone like Lavrov.
Your post is full of rhetoric that boils the war down to Putin and his whims. I'm describing your reductionism. It does not go without saying, it's the predominant (mis)understanding spread in liberal media everywhere, and why psychologizing Putin is basically its own news topic at this point.
Your cowardly selective quoting is noted.
