Shouldn't any communist party that works within a capitalist system be looked upon with a side-eye? Like I can't expect much from them tbh.

Yep. I was definitely ignorant. I thank you and everyone else who responded to me.
Thank you so much for this write-up, I'm learning way more about this conflict than I ever have before. I never truly recognized to what extent neo-nazi's have hijacked Ukraine.
There’s a video, if I can find it, floating around the Internet of Zelensky meeting with his troops at the frontline in 2019 or 2020 and telling them to stop attacking the Donbass and the soldier he’s talking to just doesn’t give a shit.
BTW: I found the video you mentioned https://thegrayzone.com/2022/03/04/nazis-ukrainian-war-russia/
Yeah, let's get rid of the jobs of creatives/people who work for themselves and get an even larger pool of laborers for our corporations... insidious
holy shit, fantastic response. I wrote mine before I saw this, but I think you delivered your point beautifully. Man, i'm new to this instance, but you guys are all pretty eloquent around here.
This was a pretty fantastic write-up, and I agree with it for the most part upon initial reading. I'm happy I found this because I was wondering why many here support Russia in this conflict.
That being said, I understand that Russia feels it was forced to be in this position, and I definitely realize the increasingly aggressive moves that NATO has been making over the decades, but at the end of the day Russia is the aggressor against Ukraine, isn't it? Like I don't want to see Ukranian and Russian citizens to go through the destruction and devastation that war brings. You feel me?
Is there a particular reason why many of y'all here seem to support Russia in this conflict? It seems to me that Russia are the aggressors, and I kind of understand why Russia invaded Ukraine (strategic location and reduce their border with NATO), but isn't it still the case that Ukrainian and Russian citizens shouldn't have to suffer and be annexed to Russia? I'm asking this question in good faith, I'm still a baby socialist.
State Property Fund of Ukraine was created in 1991 for the purpose of selling off state assets, so you're 100% correct.
