Tucker Carlson interviews Vladimir Putin in Moscow, Russia. February 6th, 2024. Read the transcript here.
I wanted to give this it’s own thread. USA clearly engaging in history revisionism. Putin is clearly no Communist, but anyone claiming he invaded Ukraine for no reason and wants to invade his neighbors have drunk the CIA propaganda Flavoraid. These claims are easily certifiable with minimum search efforts.
Tucker Carlson interviews Vladimir Putin and OP thinks it’s on topic for the progressive politics community. What even is the supposed progressive value we’re supposed to accept here? Is it progressive to conscript your citizens and conquer your neighbor if they might ally with your opponent? Should Russia be allowed to have buffer zones on the territory of neighboring countries like Israel claims is its right? Is that a progressive ideology?
Anti-Americanism is a hell of a drug.
He belives that Russia is fighting nazis and the imperialist which if it was true it would be progessive . His valid frustration from the west imperialism and support for israel makes him blind to Russia serving it’s imperialist interests too
Thanks for misgendering me. And you’re going to say I support Nazi Israel after very well knowing my post history! If Russia had made any expansionist moves post-Reagan, you may have a point. Am I forgetting any? Refresh my memory.
Lol! Wut? You’ve apparently forgotten the last 30+ years of Russian history.
Moldova (1992–present)
Georgia (1991–1993)
Tajikistan (1992–1997)
Chechnya (1994–1996, 1999–2009)
Estonia (2007)
Georgia again (2008)
Ukraine (2014–present)
Syria could also be added to that list, in terms of solidifying Russian interests in the Middle East, as well as engaging in hybrid warfare across the EU for the same purpose.
It’s weird that you wouldn’t know this.
I never said yo support nazi Israel but Russia does
ARE YOU A BANDARITE? YES OR NO?

Actual truth and unrevised history.
How many times did the USA promise Russia no NATO creep? So yes, considering these false promises, they certainly do. Look at what Israel is doing to its neighbors with US funding and support. Surely they wouldn’t do the same to Russia! 🤡🤢
Anticommunist revised history is the hell of a drug.
You have no values and would support Israel if their target was an American puppet. Conquering a neighbor is not progressive. Stop, end of sentence, that’s all you need to know. Or do you think America was in the right when they blockaded Cuba for allying with the USSR?
There may be realpolitik analyses of empire that can convince people preemptive aggression to protect your national interests is good, but it’s not fucking progressive. You have no real principles, you only care about whatever opposes America. Go make a sub about that and you and your sad friends can rile each other up about how it’s actually cool and progressive if China conquers Taiwan and Japan for being allied with America. It’s all the same tankie bullshit.
Of course I support Cuba. Long before I supported Russia. Back when I thought liberals stood for democracy. Prove anything wrong, rather than throwing what you consider insults. Show aggression done by Russia post Reagan.
Btw, it was Jimmy Carter who affirmed the One China Policy, Japan attacked USA, China and it was RUSSIA who brought them under control. USA dropped nukes for no reason. The only state, so far, to use nukes.
Thank you for proving my point. You don’t care about anti-imperialism or some realpolitik right of preemptive aggression to block an adversary, just team “whoever is against the US”.
The people of Cuba deserves sovereignty, so do the people of Gaza, the people of Taiwan, and the people of Ukraine. Fuck the imperialists and fuck their apologists. That’s actual progressive politics you poser.
You haven’t shown Russian aggression post Reagan, other than Nazi Ukraine, which is righteous and good.
Everything else was a separate topic. I answered honestly anyway.
