    The real answer is that if you live in the imperial core your "support" means nothing on the ground. You can do harm within the imperial core by backing the side of the imperialist power you live under, but your influence stops where your country's does. You don't have influence over what's happening there, only the intrigue around it in the imperial core. Posting is not praxis, opposing your own empire of residence is.

      Who you support matters because the imperial core seeks to legitimize their war efforts first in their own public opinion, as well as shield themselves from war crimes investigations within the core and keeping influence operations on the down low, in this instance, very few people in the public know about https://www.ned.org/region/central-and-eastern-europe/belarus-2019/

        Yes, this is what I mean. The axis of action when living in the imperial core is entirely centered on supporting vs fighting your own country's imperialism. Anyone who thinks their support for any US-aligned group, regardless of who they are, actually matters in that country or does anything other than the will of the empire is deluded. If you live in the imperial core your voice only contributes to the narrative of the imperial core, and you only further the goals of empire by siding with it. Condemnation of US enemies does not forward resolving your critiques of them.
