    Our side is the international workers of the world.

    That’s another reason we critically support Russia in this conflict: they have been pitted against NATO, and the weakening of NATO is a net gain for the entire global south no matter who does it.

      Russia is motivated not simply by dismantling the imperial core, but by becoming hegemonic. The imperial periphery would gain nothing by trading one overseas hegemon for another.

        A) You’re assuming their motivations based on the motivations of the empire you and I live in. Maybe they do, maybe they don’t

        B) It seems like the many periphery countries that have allied themselves with the Russian Federation think otherwise, and they’re in a better position to know what they would benefit from than you or I

        C) I know you didn’t mention this but I just wanna say that the downvote isn’t mine
