    Why would Communists provoke Ukrainian communities? Russia isn’t Communist. Russia and China are authoritarian allies of necessity. Not ideology.

        Oh I know that. And I can even tell you why. Even though I don’t agree with their reasons I can understand them.

        It’s not about ideology. Leninism is a toxic irredeemable ideology. But not something they share anymore. It’s more an enemy of my enemy thing. The United States has been a toxic destabilizing force throughout the world. Possibly worse than leninist regimes. Overthrowing or assassinating leadership that opposes US oligarch fascist hemoginy. Regardless of ideology. Russia and the US have far more in common ideologically. Which is part of why they’re our enemy still. But now an ally of convenience to leninists.

        Though I would like to point out that lennonism is a toxic ideology in and of itself. The United States is not and we could and should overthrow the wealthy fascist oligarchs that have been setting our policy for the last hundred years.

      In general, to the not so educated or layman, commie=tankie=Russian. I know it is not accurate, but that how it is.
