"Anti-imperialists" doggedly promoting Putin's Imperialism against Georgia and Ukraine is all the sign you need that your "leftist" community has been co-opted. Wake up rube.
The fact that you think the invasion of Ukraine is imperialist is all the sign we need that your politics are entirely vibes based. Read theory, rube.
Invading another nation, to expand resource access is exactly what imperialism is.
Resources? Really? That's neither a definition of imperialism nor what's happening in Ukraine - you can't seriously be operating on a vibes based analysis 2 years into the war. Seriously, fighting over resources goes back to the dawn of history, and it wasn't imperialism every time one tribe took over another's land. Do you not have the good sense to realise that trying to use - even define - words you don't actually understand is just going to make you look profoundly ignorant?
Hahahahahaha lmao great bit! You really nailed the uneducated reddit-lib idiot farthuffer tone
Didn't Georgia start that war?
