Mariupol is the real fight in Ukraine. Kiev is considered the most important battleground because it's the capitol, but the fiercest fighting is in Mariupol because it is heavily divided between ethnic Russians who want to be part of either the DPR or Russia, and hardcore Ukrainian fascists. A large number of the troops there are actual neonazis and those that aren't officially part of the battalion, tend to have sympathies. They don't care about life so they put up artillery positions in residential areas and wait for Russians to bombard them so they can boast that Russians are monsters.
Yeah Marioupol was basically handed to the Azov battalion after the Maidan coup. It legitimately is a city in need of liberation. The Nazis there have not just been hanging out peacefully for the past decade.
Surprisingly still up, basically they were shooting at civilians in 2014 and made Mariupol their base of operations for the next 8 years.
I'm not sure exactly how awful they were to Russians in the city, but the separatists clearly had a decent amount of popular support there before Azov was given control.
No no, leftism is when anything I don't like is fascist.
Cauliflower? Fascist.
Pop music? Fascist.
Stepping in dog poop? Literally Hitler.
all 4 sides you mean
NATO, the US, Ukraine, and Russia.
I wonder how Russia and Ukraine ended up with so many nazis? Surely they weren't wrecked by a "defensive" military alliance known for rehabilitating and incorporating former nazis. Surely US intelligence wasn't going around Europe, giving money and weapons to fascists for the past 80 years.
2 sides, the US, NATO and Ukraine are aligned against Russian interests
also no shit NATO is an anticommunist, thus pro fascist, org lol
yea,
ukraine I'd say is being used as a pawn by US/NATO in a proxy war meant to disintegrate and balkanize former soviet nations. The ukrainian "goal" is NATO membership and yet NATO doesn't really want to let them join. They just used the threat of it to bait the Russians.
Russia also tried to join NATO several times and was similarly told no. US military strategy has long centered around giving money and weapons to fascist, traditionalist, religious, entrepreneurial groups. It is easier to divide and conquer other cultures when reactionaries are busy destabilizing their own nations. It is easier to subordinate periphery markets to core markets when their productive capacity is crippled by civil war.
I say "3 sides" + Russia because while NATO/US/Ukraine form a "bloc" here, each member of that "bloc" is less interested in being "against Russia" than for themselves. US has imperial hegemonic interests, and NATO members want "stability" in a region they consider their "back yard." Ukraine wants a bunch of things and has a bunch of groups of its own. Some of them want national sovereignty. Some of them want to be less of a satellite to Russia and more of a satellite to NATO. Some of them want total independence from the influence of any regional superpower which sadly isn't gonna happen. Some of them simply want to ethnically cleanse people on Donetsk and Luhask. It's a shitty situation. Just today you got Russian speaking people in Mariupol saying they were being used as human shields basically.
Lol, I don't care. Not because Russia is somehow good or that Ukrainian civilians don't matter, but like everyone else, I've got my own shit going on, and fuck you for the attempt at it.
