Love that you're pro-genocide for Ukraine, but anti-genocide in Palestine. I guess Hamas is just more well-read on theory and more deserving of your support.
Except Ukraine, it would seem.
I wish this was at all surprising, but you're the perfect caricature of the kind of 'leftist' I was talking about. You just needed a little time to drop the mask, it would seem.
Russia can get fucked, but they aren't a ethno-nationalist settler-colonial project predicated on anti-arab racism dead-set on purging Palestine completely. Only a coward would hide behind Russia in order to avoid condemning the utter depravity of the US and Israel.
FUCK Russia, but FUCK the west too. No states, no masters.
At least you're not larping as a leftist anymore.
Literally did condemn Israel's genocide and the US for supporting it, but I guess that's not important when you have Ukrainian genocide to ignore.
"Opposing genocide in Ukraine means you aren't a leftist"
Yikes.
Lmao, you can oppose a genocide without advocating for US involvement, genius
Ya know, the thing I'm taking away from this entire disagreement is that the one common party in both conflicts is the US.
This is a huge leap of logic, but maybe WE are the problem.
Ah, the "Might makes right" interpretation of world politics, "If they can't survive without outside help against a much larger enemy, let them die; anything is better than the dreaded Shitlibs(tm) doing something terrible like offering aid"
I'm sure you would've been an opponent of lend-lease in WW2 as well.
I see no problems with comparing Russia to Nazi Germany.
