  • If I thought Ukrainians were all chumps then I wouldn’t be advocating for their democratic rights to self determination. Let them vote, FFS.

    With all the Russophobic conditioning you’ve been through it’s probably hard to wrap your head around the fact that the Ukraine War has seen the lowest civilian death rate than any major conflict in world history. This is what happens when a nation is pushed into conflict but still sees their adversary as human. Name one war of aggression by America that fits that.

    Ukraine is a hostage scenario, and Russia is liberating them. This was especially evident in the liberation of Mariupol, an ethnic Russian city that democratically seceded after the coup and before the Azov Brigade made them into prisoners, slaughtering anyone who tried to flee East.

    Watching Chechens stack the Nazi’s bodies like cordwood was more satisfying than I care to admit. 🍿👍

    Odessa next, please.


  • You use the word “dictator” like a subjective pejorative instead of a definition. Just say you don’t like him. You don’t have to like him to acknowledge he is the duly elected leader of a sovereign nation. Again, democracy to people like you is just selective privilege enjoyed on the backs of the oppressed. America directly arms over 80% of dictatorship globally, but we reserve the word only for those with natural resources we wish to covet. It’s not your fossil fuels. It’s not your rare earth minerals. They’re not your slaves for your T-shirt factories.

    The American Empire is at its end and you need to come to terms with that, as well as with the delusional propaganda you regurgitate.

    It’s over. Go home.


  • Uhhh… Okay, bud. Exactly what part?

    With the unfortunate Arctic thaw this will only increase access to to this vast untouched trove of resources.

    Russia is fighting an existential threat. The idea that they’re the aggressor or a threat to Europe is ridiculous propaganda. For centuries, every war ought between them and Europe has always come from Europe. Every single one.


  • As if the billions of dollars we’ve pumped into the coup government come with no strings attached. Sure. Early on, Boris Johnson directly intervened on behalf of the Western nations to block any chance of a peace negotiation. They own Ukraine. Black Rock has privatized every aspect of public institutions and natural resources. Ukraine has been saddled with crushing generational debt by predatory IMF and arms loans. Their grandchildren’s grandchildren will be paying this off, if there’s anything left. Joining Russia and wiping this slate clean is the absolute best option for the people in the Ukraine.

    I’ve already said Zelensky’s obviously not a Nazi. He’s a chump who will never outlive his usefulness to the Banderites who have him on a leash. The day he sues for peace is the day he dies, and he knows this.

    How many times will the democratic mandate of these people be disregarded because they “voted wrong”? It didn’t start with Yanukovych or Zelensky or the Donbass. The first ever Soviet referendum concluded that they wished to remain in the Soviet Union, along with almost all the other republics. But, that was disregarded also because they “voted wrong”.

    When you start seeing democracy as a universal concept, and not just a select privilege enjoyed on the backs of others, you start seeing America as the least democratic nation in the world.

    Get it?






  • Not when Nazis control the Ukrainian government. Zelensky is a kapo stooge that has zero control over anything.

    Ukrainians can’t even vote. They can’t “defend themselves” against TCC press gangs forcing their men into vans off the street. “Busification”.

    Let Ukrainians vote. That’s how you help them “defend themselves”.

    The coup government has no right to “defend itself” anymore than Israel’s genocidal occupation does, just another fascist ethnostate proxy for Western imperialism.

    I understand.


  • “Real life Ukraine” has no more Nazis than any other given nation. The problem is that this small minority has had a stranglehold on the government since the U.S. bankrolled coup in 2014 that put them in power. When Ukrainians finally had a chance to vote in a real election they rejected Poroshenko and the Svoboda coup leaders. They won every Oblast except Lviv, the ultra nationalist stronghold for actual ethnic Ukrainians. Zelensky promised peace under the Minsk Agreement, all while the Azov Brigade continued to shell civilians in the Donetsk City center. He even brought a camera crew to the front lines in an attempt to shame them into stopping. They laughed in his face and punked him in front of the cameras for all to see. Now he’s just a kapo flunky for the men who actually control Ukraine.

    John Mccain, Lindsey Graham, Victoria Nuland, they invaded Ukraine.

    Calling Putin a dictator, someone with overwhelmingly popular support, is a meaningless pejorative alongside their enemy that we foster. Ukrainians can’t vote. Men can’t even leave to escape this Nazi death cult. There wasn’t anything democratic about Svoboda’s coup, and there’s nothing democratic about Ukraine now.

    Russia has more natural resources than any other nation in the world, and even more so per capita. That’s all you need to know about the West’s adversarial nature with Russia, why the RAND Corporation literally wrote a white paper that outlines how to destroy Russia and take all their shit.

    The Donbass rejected the coup and the overthrow of their duly elected government. They had their own elections and expressed the democratic human right of self determination. They neither participated in any subsequent elections, legit or not, nor are they subject to the outcome decided in absentia.

    Ukraine is now just another fascist ethnostate proxy for Western imperialism, same as Israel. Neither have a right to exist.

    And besides, I’m older than “Ukraine”.

    Chew on that.

    Go crawl in a trench along the Dneiper if you feel strongly about aiding a Nazi regime to steal natural resources on behalf of Western billionaires and corporations.

    Take the place of a Ukrainian man who can’t vote, can’t leave, can’t end this pointless war we started.

    Do it.
