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.
