Wait wait, I’m getting it. The US Secretary of Defense Pete “the Alcoholic” has crusader neo-fascist Nazi tattoos, and the US is rounding up minorities in concentration camps. Maybe Russia should invade us next. It would be doing us a favor. You know for Freedom. We have a lot of Nazis here too.

Would unironically be an improvement if for no other reason than that the breaking of US military power would be removing a boot from the neck of the entire world. You like democracy and self-determination for all peoples, right? You and I have lived fat and haughtily off the backs of others long enough, it's time we took one for the team.

Seriously, you would tho, with the US as well. Two for one bargain, don't threaten me with a good time.

Russia conquering the US would unironically be an improvement. The US is 10 times worse for the world in every regard.

Can't help but notice that both of your comments here are smug and sarcastic while making no attempt to acknowledge that several people have given substantive replies to both of them. Same deal as most people who wade into this instance to do apologia for the US/NATO side in this proxy war. Well, it's the same playbook that we've seen in Yugoslavia, Syria, and all the other places that the US has used proxy forces and hybrid warfare to break up the enemies and victims of its imperialist project.

People here tend to take the position of critical support of Russia in this conflict and revolutionary defeatism with respect to US imperialism, broadly speaking. Don't you think you might stand to learn something if you actually engage with people on this, or are you afraid to do so? Are you sure you've understood the positions that you're mocking? Your glib replies here suggest you have not.

Also there's only one side in this conflict that has consistently tried to negotiate in good faith, de-escalate, and reach peace agreements that respect the actual political desires of people in the donbas and crimea, and it's not the NATO side.

That would be amazing if Russia actually did that. You think we don't want American destroyed?
