    What do you think a civil war is?

    Edit: what I said was definitely oversimplified, but many people seem to think this situation just started in 2022.

      A civil war instigated by a global power is the thing we rightfully call USA evil for doing.

      Why is there a segment of online commies who are being so fucking weird about this?

      Do you acknowledge that the Russian state sucks ass and that Putin should jump off a building?

        Why are you coming to us and trying to tell us what to think? Your worldview is no different than the US state department, yet you’re smug about it.

        The vast majority of the global south shares our position. You’re not as informed as you think you are. In a few months you’ll be cheerleading an intervention in West Africa to ‘stop autocracy’.

        Be gone, lib.

          Ah yes, my world view that USA is the greatest threat to every man, woman, and child on planet is exactly the same as the US state department. You’ve got me pegged, my dude.

          You’re obviously not interested in an honest conversation, so have fun with whatever culty rabbit hole you’ve fallen into.

            Communists who share the same world view based on a 200 year long intellectual body of knowledge agreeing on situation in Ukraine = culty rabbit hole

            You, who’s opinion lines up with the US State Department = the one true leftist

              Are you saying all True Communists agree with lemmygrad’s take on this?

              Repeat “US State Department” three more times and I legally have to admit that I’m CIA.

                I don’t really care about “True Communists.” I care about actually existing communists.

                I wouldn’t be suprised if your ideas on AES line up with the state department too, and not because i or anyone thinks you’re in the CIA

                  I don’t want to be mean, but that’s very unintentionally funny (presumedly. You don’t seem like the joking type).

            You’ve added nothing to this conversation, despite what you think.

            You’re obviously not interested in an honest conversation, so have fun with whatever culty rabbit hole you’ve fallen into.

            You’re the clown ass who keeps saying ‘source’ to things that have been sourced here numerous times. You’ve provided no sources to counter our claims.

            Is this what you think a productive conversation is? Smugly talking down to those you disagree with while providing no evidence, then accuse them of not wanting to have a conversation?

            We tried to engage with you and this is what you responded with. This is the behavior of every lib who has come on here recently.

              Are you a mind reader?

              You’re the clown ass who keeps saying ‘source’ to things that have been sourced here numerous times. You’ve provided no sources to counter our claims.

              So when people make wild claims that contradict every news source available to me should I just accept it uncritically or I’m a lib?

              Sourced where? Am I supposed to just magically know?

              Is this what you think a productive conversation is? Smugly talking down to those you disagree with while providing no evidence, then accuse them of not wanting to have a conversation?

              You essentially called me a US puppet and worse a lib, so maybe get off your pedestal.

              I was fine with your Wikipedia source, but apparently you decided that was bad or something.

              We tried to engage with you and this is what you responded with. This is the behavior of every lib who has come on here recently.

              I tried to engage with you and was called a lib, lib.

                  So why did you immediately decide that I believe everything put out by the US State Department, just because I expressed the mildest exasperation at the lemmygrad discourse?

                  Besides, I’ve been very clear on USA bad, so you know that much.

                    I apologize for being harsh, but we have been brigaded by many people who do come and argue in bad faith.

                    However, simply replying ‘source’ to things that are sourced within this post is going to make me think you’re arguing in bad faith.

                    What is your understanding and position on this conflict? I am asking in earnest.
