    These threads are full of useful idiots and propagandists shitting on Americans.

    I’m so bored by this nonsense. At least get more clever if you’re going to try to divide all of us.

    The way I see it, we’re all in this together. Even the Russian people are my ally if they oppose fascism and corruption. These are my people… All people who want a better world.

    But sure, enjoy your indulgences if this thread is your thing. May your lives be as short as Trump’s should be.

            I’m surprised everyday by what my fellow US Americans want. I imagine it’s not much different than what propaganda the average russian citizen believes.

            There are people in both countries that know what empathy is, and understand they’re being lied to though.

              Yes, USA and Russia is similar. Trump won 2 times in USA same as Putin won couple of fair elections before they stopped being fair. Both USA and Russia are full of bloodthirsty, racist people that believe they live in the greatest country in the world. It’s not an accident that brutal dictators raised to power there. It’s a direct expression of the desires of their citizens. Only when the oppression starts to affect them personally they begin to see the light.

          No I wouldn’t say the Russian people are the enemy either. But their autocratic government invading Ukraine aren’t exactly high on my list of potential allies.

          It’s not the Russian people that were fighting, but we should be fighting autocracy wherever it happens to be, and it happens to be in Russia. Being allies isn’t like being sister cities. Our autocratic govt is in bed with their autocratic govt.

          • that were fighting,

            Sorry, what trench in Ukraine are you posting from?

            but we should be fighting autocracy wherever it happens to be, and it happens to be in Russia

            Are you American? Because your country is currently engaged in war crimes, and you can fight it plenty well from there.

      Is the opposite is the goal? reunite US against the empire?
