I agree that the most realistic scenario ending the war soon is the victory of Russia, and so for the sake of all the people on both sides who suffer from the war it's what I desire right now. A peace negotiation mediated by China would also be desirable but sadly it doesn't seem like Kiev is willing to do that.
Alright,but why not offer critical support to Russia then? As much as I should hate them,I find myself hating the nations that caused this instead. I don't like Putin,I don't like the Russian Orthodox church,I don't like the Russian Federation as it currently is,but they would be a great improvement over literal Nazi rule by Ukraine.
If I had to pick over reactionary capitalism that is somewhat opposed to Western capitalism and literal Nazi battalion backed NATO puppet regimes,I will always pick the first option, regardless of how much I disagree with them.
Offering critical support is one thing, saying that "volunteering to the Russian army is based" is quite a bit beyond that imo
Volunteering to support a nation resisting imperialism, and fighting to defend a nation from literal Nazis (not neo-Nazis even, OG Nazis) being armed and used by the greater worldwide imperialist system of NATO and the collective west so as to further their hegemony is "not based?"
Literally as based as you could possibly get from Steven Segal
