Users in .ml are so silly.

Most of you I assume identify or support socialism right? Why Russia then? Because they once were a communist country? Because China is allied with them?

I see a lot of support for Palestine from .ml users but hate towards Ukraine. What's the difference there? Why is one invasion acceptable and even supported but another not?

  • "Ukraine is Nazis!!1!1" A whole country is Nazis? Really? Russia isn't also chock full of racism? Aren't socialists supposed to be fighting for their fellow workers. Shouldn't you be upset Russia is grinding an entire generation away over a special 3 day operation as he attempts to destroy Ukrainian proletariat?

It makes no fuckin sense. Russia is an oligarchy, Putin is a warlord. Why do y'all want to support that it's pathetic.

For the majority of the world's people, Russia is their only shield from the imperialism of the US and the EU (mainly France). A world with a strong Russia is better than one with a weak Russia. Putin is a man; he will lose power / resign / die at some point. The 6,000 nukes keeping us safe are a lot more important.

And yes, Ukraine seems to be run by people who have no issue kidnapping their own citizens and sending them to die. They also worship WW2 Nazi collaborators. I'm sure Russia has its own racists, but they aren't in power. One side is less bad than the other.

One side is less bad than the other.

It's insane how many US nationalists-in-denial apply this to elections and absolutely fucking nothing else. Not you, just making the observation
