Be very of these false narratives which seek to bend the framework of reality towards a position in accord with the US Empire.

This is not “a conflict between two bourgeois countries”. This is an abstract, undialectical analysis.

It is adapting the framework of Western Imperialists.

This is a complex conflict decades in the making, at it’s core, it is a war between Russia and the Blood Empire.

The Ukrainian people are being used as a weapon by their bloodthirsty American masters.

I hope people here see how deceptive and devious this “both sides bad capitalists” narrative is.

It is poisonous to us communist communities, and it shows that western propaganda is very much able to spread on GenZedong.

Do not allow them to infiltrate our minds.

Godspeed comrades. o7

    I never understood how people can call Russia “imperialist.” Russia doesn’t coup other nations’ democratically elected governments, doesn’t invade countries half way across the planet to maintain hegemony, etc. Russia is a capitalist oligarchy but it isn’t imperialist. The USA is the greatest imperialist power and the priority should be weakening it. The world will be free if the US is defeated, if Russia is defeated it will only make the US more powerful.

    Well, it IS a conflict between two bourgeois countries. But that doesn’t mean that one (Russia) isn’t the obvious actor that should be supported.

      Well then you cannot boil the conflict down to an abstract declaration of “conflict between two bourgeois countries”

        You’re right. Though I’ve talked to “communists” who actually believe Russia is on some path to reestablishing the USSR just because its a challenge to Western hegemony. So with every declaration that Russia is not imperialist, I think it’s still worth reminding that they’re not aspiring to be socialist either.

          They are not aspiring to be ideologically socialism but their aspirations directly benefit the development of real, material socialism

          So there is a material significance here, that is imperative in any analysis

            Yep, Russia serves as a temporary ally to all AES countries. Denying/disapproving this only serves to benefit the west.
