            More like authoritarian. If you were a communist you’d care about the people in Russia, not the government. If you are a communist, you’re a pretty shit one.

                From? Yes. What does that have to do with anything? It’s about what you agree with, not where you’re from, right?

                Also, again, whataboutism. You can’t defend yourself, so you go on offense. Why don’t you care about the people? You’re a pretty poor communist if you can have comrades in oppressive places, and only defend authoritarian governments who abuse their citizens.

                  Am I supposed to believe your crocodile tears for the poor Russian people? LOL
                  The RuZZians orThe orcs as you dehumanising Russophobes call them constantly?

                  OK then, let’s have some facts.
                  Despite being political enemies they understand that the coup and NATO expansion with nukes in ukraine is unacceptable.
                  So they pragmatically support Putin in this case. And so do I.

                  But I guess NATO nukes threatening the Russian people and NATO bases all around them is OK with you, not hypocritical at all.
                  Just as nobody in the west cared about the ethnic Russians (35%+ of ex-ukraine) getting bombed by Azov nazis.
                  No, just as the zionists claim history starts from oct 7, the war only started when Russia intervened.
                  Totally nothing had happened before.

                  And also you would rather continue this lost war to the last poor ukrainian too, as Lindsey Graham wants.
                  As long as it hurts the Russians.
                  Who’s getting abused here?

                  And talking about communists:

                  The communist party, despite being opposition to Putin is not forbidden in Russia.
                  Free and democratic ukraine banned no less than 11 parties.
                  Put union leaders in jail, etc…

                  Many others followed, left and right-wing.

                  See, that’s how you argue, with facts, you on the contrary can’t defend yourself.
                  A cringe insinsere appeal to emotion doesn’t cut it.

                    No. You’re supposed to care. That’s the fucking point. You’re strawmaning, because you’re an asshole who doesn’t care about the people, which is explicitly not what a communist would do.

                    Despite being political enemies they understand that the coup and NATO expansion with nukes in ukraine is unacceptable.

                    Yeah… About that. Ukraine used to have nukes (from when they were a member of the USSR, you might recall). They gave them up to Russia for promises, which weren’t kept. It’s unacceptable for them to have them? Why? Why can Russia? Why did they give them up?

                    This argument is complete bullshit. They aren’t going to be given nukes, but even if this were the case, the argument that they shouldn’t have them is ridiculous, when they were given to Russia and Russia uses nukes to bully them and other nations. Either it’s not OK for Russia to have them either or it is OK for Ukraine to (or you have an opinion based in bias, not logic).

                    And also you would rather continue this lost war to the last poor ukrainian too, as Lindsey Graham wants.

                    No. I want Russia to return to its own territory. They should end it. It’s in their power, but the elites are using the people for political gain (like always). You’re class awareness is really fucking bad.

                    The communist party, despite being opposition to Putin is not forbidden in Russia.

                    Sure. There aren’t fair elections they could win though. Them being not explicitly banned doesn’t mean shit. They’re implicitly banned.

                    Free and democratic ukraine banned no less than 11 parties.
                    Put union leaders in jail, etc…

                    More whataboutism. Why are you discussing Ukraine here? This is about Russia. You can’t put up a legitimate communist argunent for what they’re doing, so you just say “what about Ukraine!”

            Fair point, it’s probably skewed more towards women once you consider how many of the men march off to the meat grinder for a failed dream that died 30 years ago.

            Are you ready to watch the soviet union split apart a second time?
