I'm trying to learn more about the Russia/Ukraine conflict. In the articles that I find that seem to be critical of Ukraine, there are a few that are right wing that seem to have similar viewpoints as what I've read on here or in the more leftist articles.
For example this piece from National Interest, or this from the CATO institute.
There are others that aren't flagged as right wing that are critical, but it's just got me wondering, why would right wing politicians/publications perceive these things similarly to how some communists would when the ideologies of both are so extremely opposite?
Disclaimer: I'm not pro-ukraine at all, but in my search for info that's not super pro-Ukraine propaganda, this is the stuff that comes up for me
Yes I was referring to Republicans, I do not consider Democrats to be leftists in the least lol. I appreciate your detailed response; I suppose it's just always bizarre to me when Republican talking points converge. I imagine that if you ever were to say to a Republican that their stance on the war is a communist stance they would lose their fucking minds. I just started trying to research the conflict the night that I posted this and found out about the Euromaidan coup and all of that so I'm starting to get some context; but I also don't know a lot about China either. Having a broader understanding of the relationships between the 3 (US, Russia, China) and NATO would probably help answer a lot of these questions for me, so I guess I better get to researching
