    Not buying the Western “Ukraine doesn’t have Nazis, this not a US-led proxy war, Maidan was a peaceful color-revolution” narrative doesn’t make you pro-Russian. I’m neither a friend of Putin nor the Russian or Chinese empire. I just want to see US imperialist hegemony come to an end.

      Absolutely rabid here mate.

      The things you do is Russia / China tactics 101. Try to cast shade into what exactly you support while very clearly being against one side. I have said plenty of bad things about my own country here and in other places. And likewise about China, Russia and many others. Criticism is thankfully a freedom we still have here. How about you, wanna tell us a few things about China and Russia motherland?

        I’m from Europe and I have no allegiance to China or Russia. I’m anti-imperialist and the only political label I can associate with that of anarchism. But yeah, sure, go on making me out to be some imperialist communist tankie fascist or whatever people throw around nowadays to discredit people they don’t agree with without even knowing the political affiliations/leanings of someone.

        Please explain “Russia / China tactics 101” and I’ll take the time to counter what you consider to be (I’m paraphrasing) “imperialist aligned tactics” and that I have good reasons to have arrived at my conclusions (which you don’t know about, even you read of all of my comments, because I haven’t stated them anywhere in full detail, but please, give it a try, if you don’t have anything better to do). I’m also open to being wrong and I tend to change my mind when presented with good data/evidence.

        Since your posts in this thread are so utterly bereft of nuance (“Russia is evil!!11”, “Censor what contradict’s Western doctrine”, “You have a dissenting opinion so I’ll assume you’re a fascist”), I’m really not sure why I even bother responding to you, but I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt, hoping that you might be willing to engage in a meaningful debate.
