So we’re back where we started, only now you’ve insulted me for not supporting Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Russia could have ended this at any time by just leaving Ukraine be.
Let’s trace your shifting goalposts, since you seem to have the memory of a goldfish:
You initially implied Russia was a proxy for someone, questioning the term “proxy war.”
When provided with the basic definition and the clear fact that Ukraine is the primary entity receiving direct external support to fight a war against a larger power, you had no substantive counter.
So now, you abandon the entire factual premise of the discussion and swerve into a moralistic declaration about the invasion being wrong.
You attempted a “gotcha” on terminology, failed, and now pretend the original debate was always about the morality of invasion. No one argued that invading was good.
Your insistence on reducing everything to “Russia bad, therefore Ukraine good” is exactly the liberal masquerade alsaaas called out. You conflate opposing Russian imperialism with endorsing the Ukrainian state or NATO’s project. You cannot hold two thoughts at once: that Russia is an imperialist aggressor and that the Ukrainian government is a corrupt, conscripting capitalist regime fighting a proxy war for Western interests that do not align with those of its own or the international proletariat.
So invading other countries is fine as long as those countries have allies supporting them, on the grounds that it’s a “proxy” war?
That’s exactly what I said. Well done, have a gold star for achieving 7 year old reading comprehension.
Actually subtract that star because you’re too damn proud to admit you were mistaken, which is approximately 2 year old developmental level.

No, I returned to the point you never debunked and attempted to distract from:
You have no desire to oppose Russian imperialism because you’re an imperialist to your very core.
If its any consolation price, Naeva is more auth than anarchist on our instance. She butts heads often.
