I hate how “anti-war” has been hijacked by these people to mean, let imperialist countries invade whoever they want with no consequences. (in the case of tankies, any imperialist country that isn’t in NATO).

I'm really curious how or why it works. Do they hate US so much that anyone against the US seems a hero to them, despite being off the same kind but pretending to be a communist/socialist?
I am curious about this as well. At least in some cases, it seems to be due to “alternate facts”, e.g., https://lemmy.ca/comment/13198294
Are they saying that the U.S. was preparing Ukraine for war in 2014... Which Russia had started moving their forces in 2013 and started the invasion in February of 2014. It's like how people try to say "well Russia wouldn't have invaded Ukraine if Trump had still been president"... When Russia mobilized their troops and equipment and marched them there for the invasion while Trump was still President.
Damn, that's alternate as fuck 🤢
That was an… interesting read 😅
