Yes. Far more likely that Trump and Putin are the good guys… /s
But hey, as long as Americans get what they deserve, who cares, right?
Vice fucking versa. It takes two to tango. The RF under Putin is not some innocent victim here. He has very much brought back an oppressive one party state that squashes any dissent brutally, has worked to ethnically cleanse the country, turned back the clock on the rights of women and the LGBQT+ community, and married all that with the worst aspects of soviet imperialism, seeking to destabilize the middle east and central europe for his own benefit. He’s very much trying to rebuild the footprint of the soviet empire to boot, but without even any of the trappings of communism - just straight, naked power.
If you’re unable to recognize what I bad actor Putin is in your rush to condemn America, then you clearly are biased here. Both things can and are true - that American is an empire that regularly intervenes in global affairs when they should not, and that the RF does the exact same thing. If you REALLY believe that justifies overthrowing the US government and fucking all americans over, no matter what happens to us, then that’s on you.
Stop pretending like if the US stopped being an empire (which is NOT excusable and did not remotely diminish under Trump the way some believed) that the RF would stop being a brutal imperial state of its own. This is still competing empires all the way down, even if its not longer about competing economic systems.
Yes. So for that WE deserve to be under a fucking fascist dictatorship… I’m sure that destroying MY life, and the life of millions of Americans will compensate those who died.
You DO realize that this led directly to Putin being in power, as he was Yeltsin’s handpicked successor, right?
Unless it’s a war on those of who happen to live in America and opposed authoritarianism in our own country, right? Because that’s what’s going to happen. Again, do you REALLY want an unstable authoriarian in the two most armed nuclear powers on earth? Does that REALLY serve world peace and ensuring our children’s future? Please explain how a fascist American serves the goal of world peace?
