leftists when they claim to be anti imperialist but just support the other empire, your view of those things align with what the russian state wants you to think
> imperialism is when invading other countries
> russia invades ukraine
> russia isn't imperialist

when you definitely understand what imperialism is 🤡
imperialism (from ddg):
The extension of a nation's authority by territorial acquisition or by the establishment of economic and political dominance over other nations.

Explains a lot when your understanding of the subject is based on a superficial duck duck go search. Imperialism represents a predatory, exploitative system where advanced capitalist nations dominate and exploit weaker nations for resources, markets, and profit. A country going to war is not itself a sign of imperialism, and anybody who actually bothered to understand the causes for the war in Ukraine would know that it was the west that was establishing economic and political dominance over Ukraine.
The absolute minimum you could do is attempt to understand what Imperialism actually is. Imperialism isn't "invasion," it's a form of international extraction similar to nation scale bourgeois/proletarian relations. The fact that you're trying to redefine Imperialism as "invasion" to make someone who linked a good source outlining what Imperialism actually is in order to make the person you replied to seem hypocritical is the peak of dishonesty.
already replied to a comment suggesting something similar:
Yes, Marxists use the latter definition listed, not the bolded, because it's a process that is trackable and explainable within itself. Adding "invasion" to the mix only makes sense if it is as a consequence of the latter, otherwise you can just call it invasion.

what a counter argument
You got exactly the level of counterargument your "argument" deserves.
lol, every .world user.
There are 2 rightwing parties in the US. If you are a leftwing voter and live in the empire or any of its vassal states, you're wasting your time.
True leftism is "when America bad" and the more "America bad" you spout, the more to the left you are. Having nuanced and principled opinions is inferior to campism, gotcha.
There's a difference in hating/disliking people because of unchangeable circumstances and hating regimes.
Nationalism is the stupidest thing humans have created regardless of who their propaganda affects and how.
