Not imperialism:
- America couped ukraine in 2014
- America put poroshenko in power. he integrated CIA-backed nazi extremists into the military and police and territorial defense units
- America put yatsenyuk in power (he took out huge IMF loans that put most ukrainian farmland in the hand of foreign capitalists)
- America poured billions into Yeltsin's campaign in the 90s and supported him materially and ideologically as he shelled Russian parliament, banned parties, banned newspapers, and rolled back labor rights
- America supported and benefited from the mass privatization of the former USSR that destroyed nationalized industries and put them into the hands of oligarchs
- America supported right wing extremists in Ukraine and Russia for decades
- NATO expanded right up to the Russian border despite assurances to Gorbachev this would not happen
(these are victories of democracy according to American libs)
Imperialism:
- Russia invaded Ukraine
to prevent further NATO expansion, to support DPR/LPR independence, and to prevent Ukraine from becoming a staging base for the American military (what usually happens to junior NATO members).for literally no reason, please stop asking why it happened, putin is just evil ok, history started in february
Don't forget that the ethnic Ukrainians from Galacia were probably going to slaughter huge numbers of ethnic Russians from eastern Ukraine.

in 2014, members of the Social national assembly, right sector, and misanthropic division, and "Fatherland is Young", cornered a bunch of anti-Maidan demonstrators in an odessa trade union hall and burned them to death.
2 of the right wingers died, but 46 of the left wingers died, often from asphyxiation or suicide by jumping out of windows. English language wikipedia calls this outright massacre a "clash"
from 2014-2022 approx 16k civilians dead in Donbas from Ukrainian shelling
he granted Bandera “hero of ukraine” postmortem
didn't this happen in 2010
yeah, you're right, it was yuschenko and not poroshenko, i had misremembered, thanks for the correction
heh was using your comment as a pasta source on :reddit-logo: and got called out for it
shoot. nothing worse than being 99% correct on reddit. they'll run with the 1% and ignore the rest
There’s a bot on Reddit now that lets you check how many times someone has posted in this dipshits subreddit. It’s fun because the losers get really fucking angry about it.
/u/VaushCheck /u/User_Name will call the bot to analyze User_Name
Wonder is it was made by a leftist to catch false leftists or a lib to catch Bernie bros
It was made by someone in the TrueAnon sub so by a leftist to catch shit libs.
Every time I see a dogshit reactionary opinion on the trueanon sub, it's 99% some guy with over 1k posts on redscarepod. It's great
Lula's actual opinion on Ukraine: “The reason for this war, from what I understand, what I read and what I listen to, would be resolved here in Brazil at a table drinking beer. It would have been resolved here, if not in the first beer, in the second. If not on the second, on the third. If it didn't happen on the third one, until the bottles ran out, we'd make a peace agreement” lol
Some Vaushite was trying to explain why tankies were actually fascists and brought up Caleb Maupin as his example of a typical tankie.
Vaushites, man. Idk what to do with them.
That is a good thread. It's very weird seeing people so interested in Maupin and the Larouchites and RedHaz, since as far as I know all of them together have maybe a few hundred followers.
For those of us on the internet ideology war the Vaushites are the primary ideological enemy we have to deal with right now.
More specifically what I mean is socdems that present themselves as ""leftists"" and argue against everything to the left of them. They exist to sheepdog would-be radicals away from socialists.
Nobody else poses any opposition to the left. The neoliberals are easily dealt with, as are the fascists, nobody else is actively harming the left. It is ONLY this ideological group that is hurting leftist growth and leftist education.
In the online space it definitely is bloomer-ish but these people are a fucking pain in the ass.
There are no other ideological groups online that present any damage or danger to us, it is only these socdem fuckers who consistently turn good potential radicals away.
Vaush would have defended shooting Rosa, or shot her himself. That's what these people are to us. They are our primary opposition and should be considered the largest priority, online at least. Nazis and neoliberals are doing jackshit to stop/slow the growth of the left online, only these fuckers are.
They still do the "youre not a real leftist if you disagree with me on some stuff" thing unironically.
Why do all the good leftists disagree with me? Oh well, never the less
worse. just ask yourself, would you rather have dogshit on your lawn or V*ush
Surprised it took them three days to find what he thinks of ukraine
