    Don't give views and clout to imperialist propaganda mouthpieces by linking them please.

    If you have something to say on the Russia/Ukraine conflict know much has been said and your sources will be closely scrutinized for whether they are good Marxist and/or anti-imperialist analysis or just more run of the mill equivocating left-lib pablum propaganda that is so abundant and which we have all heard.

    I question what if any value this brings and thus whether it even belongs here (though the community has no rules, this is basically reactionary content). The points in the first half have been made by dozens of much better people and most people here are well aware of Russia's social values and persecution of the LGBTQ+ community so really it's only a way of smuggling in the latter points (falsely calling Russia imperialist) behind a veneer or progressiveness. That makes it worse and more dangerous than simply coming right out with those false points as it lulls naive viewers in with things they find hard to disagree with and which are valid problems then connects them with straight up lies and western propaganda. I suggest you blocklist this youtube channel as unreliable propaganda and avoid posting anything from this person again.

    Neither Washington nor Moscow/Beijing is a well worn tactic by the CIA and their false western anti-Marxist, Anti-Soviet, Anti-Chinese "left".
