Let me get this straight. You live in the Ukraine but want to see it annexed by Russia? You've seen Nazis in the Ukraine, which means they aren't fit to govern themselves and deserve to be killed by Russians. You ignore evidence from the independent press in Russia and instead reference US propaganda, when the only propaganda being discussed is promoted by Putin. You insist opposition to war is being a dupe of the US. You insist opposition to war is really pro-war because....? There is no because.

You are stumping for empire and the subjugation of the country you say you live in. You want the Ukraine to be recolonized and subject to the same kind of restrictions on speech and political participation that prevails in Russia, and of course where LGBT Russians are imprisoned. You are unabashed pro-imperialist.

Interesting you admit that the left in Russia opposes this war mongering, imperialist cause you are promoting. Meanwhile, National Front parties throughout Europe back Putin. He is a right winger backed by right wingers.
