More like c/MeanwhileOnGrad, Nazi bar that it is

Yep! The woman who made the documentary My Brothers and Sisters in the North, humanizing people in the DPRK, was stripped of her ROK citizenship despite popular critical approval of the documentary (from those who saw it).

Europe is only a decent place to live because it’s reliant on imperialism, and until now has been able to rely on the US Empire propping up NATO to lower Europe’s millitary spending. Now that imperialism is drying up and the US Empire no longer wants to be the only one paying for NATO, European countries are enforcing austerity and sliding to the far-right.

I know! It’s pretty shocking, or would be.

While sadly the article is fake, the DPRK’s unyielding support for Palestinian liberation is very real, in case anyone didn’t know that already.

Thank u mr captal

Hopefully one comes! I just think Russia’s closer to one at this point.

Read up on local decolonial movements, and listen to what they have to say and are advocating for. Read up on settler-colonialism, Fanon is an excellent writer.

No problem!

Just a tip, “way” sounds the same as “weigh,” but “way” refers more to form or path, while “weigh” refers to weight, as in this instance. Fuck english, it’s terrible.

Example:

I am on my way to your house.

It’s the way I did things.

I weighed the stone, it is 2 kilograms.

Also, feel free to tell me to shut the fuck up, lol.

Putin tried to join NATO, and be closer to the west. The west said no, and that they wanted to imperialize Russia. Post-Putin, it seems demographics are trending more towards the communists, which is opposed to the EU.

Being better at producing goods is evil?

This is called a “skill issue” on the hand of western imperialists that can’t compete. Stop framing doing better as being evil.

Geographically, yes, but not in the sense of the commonly referred to “global north,” ie the US Empire and its vassals in Europe, etc. Russia has no colonies nor neocolonies, the last time it did was when it was Tsarist. The soviet union was anti-imperialist, and thus the Russian Federation inhereted no colonies.

?

You’re continuing to frame the people of Donetsk and Luhansk, that have been fighting for their lives against the Banderites in Kiev, as “Russian-backed forces.” Kiev is murdering civilians in Donetsk and Luhansk, because the citizens of the Donbass have been resisting the fascist Kiev regime.

It isn’t at all slander to call the far-right coup government Banderites. From @yogthos@lemmy.ml

Yanukovich wasn’t overthrown by anyone

Bullshit, he was coup’d in the Euromaidan coup.

The Ukrainian people are suing for peace. The problem is that every peace agreement proposed by Russia demands that Ukraine disarms, and that NATO countries are not allowed to give security guarantees. That opens the door for Russia to immediately violate the peace agreement like they have done dozens of times already since 2014.

Ukraine has broken the Minsk agreements every time, which is why Russia doesn’t honor them once broken.

What gives Russia the right to own the 5 oblasts, on what grounds should Ukraine cede them?

The fact that they want to be a part of the Russian Federation, not the Banderite regime.

This is a leftist, anti-imperialist perspective. Any party in the European Left Alliance would agree with my assessment.

I find it difficult to believe that this is a leftist, anti-imperialist perspective if it minimizes the role of imperialism in the conflict, and how the western imperialists provoked it.

There are other sources, but many are on twitter, Telegram, etc due to the internet blockade.

Definitely, that’s what I was implying with that but I probably should have spelled it out, rather than expecting them to realize nuclear depends likely on Russia.

No, you’re aiding fascists by siding with Israel and the US Empire. There’s no organized, working class movement in Iran that was behind the protests, and in such conditions spontaneity gets swept up behind whatever is actively stirring the pot. Further, it’s factually proven that Israel and the US have been arming rioters and offering reward money for kills.

This is why reading theory is necessary for anyone on the left, otherwise you make fundamental errors and end up supporting fascists that would be far worse for Iranians than their current theocracy.

Calling the ethnic Russians in Eastern Ukraine “Russian-backed forces” in order to minimize the fact that the Banderite regime in Kiev has been murdering them for over a decade is making excuses for ethnic cleansing. The RF certainly is pro-LPR and DPR, because they seceded in the context of the western-backed Euromaidan coup, where Yanukovych, popular in Eastern Ukraine, was overthrown by Banderites:

Kiev needs to cede the 4 oblasts, agree to NATO neutrality, and sue for peace. The war isn’t popular, 200,000 Kiev conscripts fled Ukraine to countries like Belarus. The Donbass wants to join the Russian Federation. Russia is not committing genocide, but Kiev certainly was murdering civilians all over the Donbass region for a decade, and still is.

I implore you to take a leftist, anti-imperialist perspective, not one that tries to cape for neo-Nazis.
