    I find it so funny how a couch political actor thinks he understands politics better than a man who took a broken russia and made it capable of fighting all of nato alone

      love how military aid by the west means “all of NATO” but military aid by Iran and North Korea means “alone”.

      Are you talking about me?

      “Fighting all of NATO” - as a German, I did not know that I was at war with Russia right now. Am I?

      I get your anger towards the US. And probably towards the EU. Towards NATO as a whole. Our history is stained with imperialism, and we should all be working against that. Dont falsely assume that I am on the side of the empire.

      But this does not necessarily make Russia (or China) some sort of safe haven. Some days ago, I had to argue with US nazis that the US and Russia are the only working democracies left in this world, and Europe is a “autocratic dictatoraship” - which is obviously BS. Our system is FAR from perfect, and we experience propaganda - as does nearly every other state. But Russia, China, and the US are definitly broken systems, and ALL of them are imperialistic. So are you telling me that you are against evil NATO empire, therefore you are rooting for the evil Russian empire?

        Please define imperialism, explain how your definition has any analytical value, and how it applies to Russia, China, and the US but not the European bloc.

        Ah, you’re not on the side of the usa empire. You see that it’s falling and instead make the new euro empire! With the same colonialist values, but without military power! What could go wrong?!

        God people doesn’t hate Europeans enough.

        But Russia, China, and the US are definitly broken systems, and ALL of them are imperialistic.

        And the glorious Europeans countries are not imperialistic???

        I can see the argument for Russia to an extent, but how is China imperialistic? From what I understand they’ve helped lift up nations in the global south (and not in a “do this or else we will overthrow your government” kind of way). I don’t think they’ve invaded another country for quite some time either.
