Personally, I don’t support either Ukraine or Russia, I see Ukraine as harboring nazis and they should answer for their crimes in the Donbas. However, when Russia invaded Ukraine I saw it as an imperialist invasion for Putin to conquer Ukraine. After He annexed the Donetsk, Kherson, Luhansk, and Zaporizhzhia oblasts, this became a very blatant imperialist invasion. Secondly, I found this post, which talks about the Russian capture of Bakhmut. I was suprised about the number of people who supported Russia. Am I wrong here for not supporting Russia? I would love to hear you opinions on this matter.
I’m only saddened I arrived late to this post…
If you believe Russia launched an imperialist war, begin to follow geopolitics not only when your attention is peaked by current events and read Lenin’s Imperialism, the Highest Stage. Everything explained to you here by others was taught to them by many works but chiefly by Lenin’s Imperialism as it is the standard for studying imperialism.
Firstly, it’s Artyomovsk, not Bakhmut. Artyomovsk was named after a comrade in the Soviet Union, we say Artyomovsk.
Secondly, Ukraine is a nazi regime, it does not simply house and protect nazis.
Everything else I would have said has already been covered.
