The Nazi Banderite and US Supported(https://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/dec/15/john-mccain-ukraine-protests-support-just-cause) post-coup government effectively banned Russian speakers from the education system( it was legislated that educational establishments; schools etc required that Ukrainian be the only language of education at all levels, 1/3 of Ukrainian’s are Russian first language speakers so this law de-facto stopped a third of students from being able to enjoy their UN mandated fundamental right to education and along with other legislation shows that the post-coup governments (the initial directly selected by the US one) and Zelensky’s later were systematically biased against the Russian speakers concentrated in the east) and started renaming streets etc after Nazi collaborators like Stepan Bandera ?
Let’s not give the West such an easy pass and ignore centuries of ongoing imperialism. The US using the Ukraine as a proxy for an attempted Afghan Trap does not make the people fighting it an equivalent malevolence. Supporting fascists is a routine Western MO.
THERE were two “Reigns of Terror,” if we would but remember it and consider it; the one wrought murder in hot passion, the other in heartless cold blood; the one lasted mere months, the other had lasted a thousand years; the one inflicted death upon ten thousand persons, the other upon a hundred millions; but our shudders are all for the “horrors” of the minor Terror, the momentary Terror, so to speak; whereas, what is the horror of swift death by the axe, compared with lifelong death from hunger, cold, insult, cruelty, and heart-break? What is swift death by lightning compared with death by slow fire at the stake? A city cemetery could contain the coffins filled by that brief Terror which we have all been so diligently taught to shiver at and mourn over; but all France could hardly contain the coffins filled by that older and real Terror—that unspeakably bitter and awful Terror which none of us has been taught to see in its vastness or pity as it deserves. - Mark Twain
the renaming of streets to Nazi collaborators and their celebration as heroes,
the brutal torture and murder of eastern Ukrainians since the installation of the Western approved Ukrainian government after the previous one underwent a coup following refusal of IMF loans,
the brutal subjugation and torture of minorities since the Western approved ukrainian governments
the two Minsk agreements aknowledging all of the above that the EU failed to uphold to stop supporting the Nazis,
the 8 years the Eastern Ukrainians requested Russian intervention before they did 2 years ago
ukrainian refugees complaining that they are housed next to brown folks if they get the chance to settle in western europe (like what kind of person does that after escaping war)
These are often standard operating procedures against most of the Global South (except for the last point) the only difference here is it is happening to white folks.
The thing is that I’m already. Comments aren’t really suitable for unsolicited random instructions
It’s rude to tell a bigot that they have an oppurtunity to educate themselves. As a westerner it should be their privilege to not be affected by that racism and to be called out on it the most heinous sin.
uh-uh and it’ll take even more time to look up all the other stuff. it truly is one of times
Best not to bother then.
For the average Westerner the ideal anti-imperialist is the one that doesn’t fight back. Those ivory towers are built on the bones and blood of the Global South.
If all the above is too much for you then I would recommend Against Empire by Michael Parenti. It will quickly cure any both-sideism.
Idk why MLs even bother trying to convince Western chauvanists. Let the contradictions of their societies turn them to socialism, and if not, leave them to their fate. Why are third worlders expected to convince the West that the way forward is socialism?
oh no you must’ve mistaken. it’s anyone’s (you, the audience) own choosing if they take their time and on what and I’m not even here, not needing to go back to a journey already passed

for what, Azov and the other fascist nationalist battalions shelling civilians in the Donbass?
Azov and the other far-right paramilitaries (later they were integrated into Ukraine’s regular armed forces) were killing civilians in the Donbass prior to Russia’s ‘little green men’ entering Ukraine

Should also mention that the US is also majorly at fault for overthrowing the democratically elected pre-Maidan government and selecting the post-coup government, the UK and Boris Johnson in particular also have blood on their hands for sabotaging the spring 2022 peace talks in Turkey
or?

It’s literally in the body of the post, lol
Most wars are fascist infighting

Yes imperialism also bad
It would be worthwhile looking up:
