I was accused literally of the same thing even though what I said was basically what Varoufakis was saying yesterday or Chomsky last week, and they are hardly "tankies"....
radlib friends irl are saying "now is not the time to criticize the west" and it's "sus" that I want to criticize NATO this exact week,
and then minutes later they:
cheer on dead Russian soldiers
want Russia bombed
clapping for random bri*ish people volunteering for UKR, and hoping they kill as many Russians as they can
While what I'm saying is that cold war 2.0 led to this, and the west bears a good chunk of the blame, and we should hope for peace and a quick resolution of the conflict..
But I'm the "tankie living in a distorted anti-west bubble, who supports Putin", fuckin annoying that everyone's a geopolitical expert now
