I don't even understand the conflict. I know people are fighting but who and why?

Edit: Thanks for the links everyone, and I'm sorry I asked.

    Cool why does he have to rig elections to keep himself in power and beat protesters

      Because he fucked up covid. And there's a ton of corruption in Belarus that he presides over, as there is in every post-soviet country. This shit is complicated, and your snooty takes aren't really enlightening anything.

          I called him a misogynistic homophobe who stupidly said that tractors and vodka could cure covid.

              I said I don't want Belarus to turn into another NATO outpost because it could spark world war three.

                      If you're interested in what actual Belarussian communists have to say about the situation and not just being a huge asshole, use google translate on this post.

                      Lol honestly fuck you. Anticommunist social democracy does it again! Just go ahead and fucking ban me. As the “anti-tankie” “left” slowly but surely gives into the anti-Russia war propaganda on the grounds that “well really, Putin, Assad, Juche, Iran, Cuba, America, the Soviet Union are all equally bad...” and devolves into liberal both-sidesism, I hope you remember that you’re responsible for helping axe a principled commitment to anti-US imperialism. I was never being ironic, fuck you and fuck this sub. You idiots have made me like Stalin more (who I literally think is bad) because I realize now he was essentially right about social fascism.
