Uh, yes? I don’t support the blatant invasion and warcrimes by Russia but I can recognize Ukraine has a fascist problem too.

Wait, do you support Donbas self rule or not? Are they not allowed to invite their ally (Russia) to support them militarily in a war of aggression by their neighbor, Ukraine?

I very clearly am saying I support Donbas but Russia has taken it too far and has become the larger aggressor.

How should Russia have defended their allies, the DPR and LPR without attacking their aggressor’s supply lines?

Can you think of any wars in which both participants didn’t attack least try to attack military supply chains?

You do support Donbas independence though?

Read the first two words of my comment tankie 🤣🤣

I did, but then I also read the rest of your comment, which muddied things a lot.

You’re getting pretty damn hostile and evasive about this.

Muddied? There’s this thing called “nuance.” I support Donbas independence, I simply don’t think it gives Russia the right to invade anywhere outside of Donbas, is that that complicated to understand?

So if you invade another country and as part of their defense of their country, their military enters your country, they’re now the aggressors?

Do you apply that principal to all conflicts, or only against enemies of the West?

Huh? When did Ukraine invade Russia?

When 99.9% of people who unironically use the word tankie, and think that ‘fascist’ means ‘anything I don’t like’, also fiercely oppose Donbas independence, and when the one I’m talking to is also refusing to just give a clear answer, I’m not about to say I’m in the wrong for asking some clarifying questions.

Also, why doesn’t it give Russia the right to invade? Was it wrong for the allies to invade Germany proper during WW2?

when the one I’m talking to is also refusing to just give a clear answer

I very clearly said I supported their independence, but okay.

Also, why doesn’t it give Russia the right to invade?

So let me get this straight, you support civilians being massacred and innocent lives being lost? You really think Ukraine is on the same level of Nazi fucking Germany? Honestly I wouldn’t even much of a problem if they just invaded Donbas but they’re invading the whole fucking country and causing so much death and destruction. How is that justified? How can you call yourself anti-war and anti-imperialism and justify a brutal invasion? Some true colors being shown…
