Ah jeez saying nazis dying is based might be bad optics u guys.
There is ample documentation of the extent of fascism in 🇺🇦, you need to look harder.
Not gonna debate-brodown, I stand by what I said: nazis getting domed is good only one type of person thinks otherwise
The problem is you didn’t really say “nazis dying is based” you said “invading a country is based (because some are nazis)”. That comes off as uncritical support of invading a country.
For communists this is just a way to separate ourselves from any connection to the masses and that just makes things harder. It’s really important to maintain that distinction, nazis dying is very cool and good. But invading the country? Ehhhh.
A couple of questions, what option did Russia have? You seem to be on the same page that Ukraine was a threat due to involvement with NATO and the US military.
At what point of a country becoming full on out in the open Neo-Nazi do MLs support an invasion and re-structuring of said country? I personally trust what Putin says more than the West in regards to this conflict. There are no good guys in a war between capitalist countries, however taking decisive action Vs. Nazis is based and I stand by that.
You don’t see the distinction between that and “full on support of putin and Russian oligarchs” that you are trying to frame it as?
Russia had no other choice, they were driven down this road by nato and its leaders refusing to solve the problem diplomatically.
The doesn’t mean supporting the war though, it simply means recognising that Russia did in fact try to avoid it and nobody took it seriously or they (nato) wanted it to happen.
At what point of a country becoming full on out in the open Neo-Nazi do MLs support an invasion and re-structuring of said country?
Good question, I think the answer is never. Sovereignty should be held above all and if we don’t uphold it then we can’t undercut american/imperialist interventions, particularly against AES states.
A war of defence against such nazi countries after they demonstrably attempt to attack another sovereign state would be justifiable and remain consistent with this principle.
I will caveat this by saying I’m not too heavily committed to this position though and I’m taking my cues from Chinese marxists on the idea that we should be completely hands off when it comes to the internal matters of foreign states.
it is good when Nazis die
it is not good when for the nazis to die their entire country has to get flattened by an imperial power using the death of these nazis as a pretext for it’s imperialist chess move, all the while they are held hostage by said nazis. that is not good, actually
