Peskov: Russia cannot persuade self-defense forces in east Ukraine to disarm

44. It's pretty sad how blinded even so called liberals are by state propaganda.

They insult everyone for failing to angerly proclaim how awful it is that Russia is supporting the Eastern separatists, but are completely blind to the actions that their own government took to instigate and support the Maiden movement. This is not that complicated a situation, both the US and Russia are pursuing their own interests in Ukraine. The difference is that Russia is reacting to our actions. This was an obvious consequence to extending the borders of the West to Russia itself, as obvious as the fact that if Russian backed forces seized one of "our" countries, we'd be supporting the opposition forces the next day.

Liberals are about as useless at ending the Neo-liberal/Neo-conservative Pax Americana movement as they are at dealing with climate change, supporting workers rights, or ensuring a just distribution of income. For almost a decade I let my hatred of Bush and the Republicans convince me that supporting the best positioned anti-Republican candidate was the best that could be done under the circumstances. Now it's hard to tell why to bother, since the worst of the policies will continue regardless of who is in office.
