    Pro eu dogmatism is foolishness, construction of 2 sides is foolish.

    Critique of the dear brussels leader is not support of the kremlin.

    People should be better than siloing the responsibility for their mind away to some temporary heartless representative.

    Ignore the disconnect between people affected by these ham fisted measures and the people that should be punished, strongly including those in the kremlin, and you are abandoning your responsibility to mankind.

      The substance of your critique is what stands out as opposed to the critique itself. It is a common pro Russian talking point to dismiss the effectiveness of the sanctions on limiting Russia’s ability to wage war. The reality is that sanctions have only started to work now that the Russian state has started to run out of the 300 billion or so dollars of liquid funds to support the war. Russia’s current months long at this stage collapse is the result of sanctions starting to bite.

      The majority of the Russian people support this war, fuck them, they deserve what they get. Why do you expect me to show more responsibility to mankind than the Russian people? That is your expectation, I genuinely do not give a shit about those warmongering pricks.

        No I do not expect you to show more than they do, but they are not one person, whilst a description of the world might contain a structure of social relations, the notion of nations is a prescription.

        You are betraying all of the people who are against the war or are avoiding making themselves into nationalist cogs, your efforts should not be support of sanctions but maintenance of communication with anarchists and growth of horizontal governance both where you are and elsewhere.

      Oh but we can go and pretend that all people are like the soldiers too. There are some beautiful people that have the misfortune of being born into the russian polity

        Please instead of this, work to maintain worker councils and establish communication between them, in all regions of the world, especially a place like the russian region
