Russia Should be Held to Account for War Crimes Committed During Ukraine War and Conflict: Editorial
Russia Should be Held to Account for War Crimes Committed During Ukraine War and Conflict: Editorial
During a period that saw the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and its constituent parts flourish, this being the period where Austria, and it’s ruling Hapsburg Dynasty, had outgrown, and more fully perpetuated their original Germanic roots. A most unusual trade spat, erupted, that would eventually lead to the dissolution of one party, and the war time measures that led to World War II, for the other. It…

We Should Say It. Russia Is Fascist.
“It’s not the first time Ukraine has been the object of fascist war. The conquest of the country was Hitler’s main war aim in 1941. Hitler thought that the Soviet Union, which then ruled Ukraine, was a Jewish state: He planned to replace Soviet rule with his own and claim Ukraine’s fertile agricultural soil. The Soviet Union would be starved, and Germany would become an empire. He imagined that this would be easy because the Soviet Union, to his mind, was an artificial creation and the Ukrainians a colonial people.
The similarities to Mr. Putin’s war are striking. The Kremlin defines Ukraine as an artificial state, whose Jewish president proves it cannot be real. After the elimination of a small elite, the thinking goes, the inchoate masses would happily accept Russian dominion. Today it is Russia that is denying Ukrainian food to the world, threatening famine in the global south.”
“… In 1939, the Soviet Union joined Nazi Germany as a de facto ally, and the two powers invaded Poland together. Nazi speeches were reprinted in the Soviet press and Nazi officers admired Soviet efficiency in mass deportations.
But Russians today do not speak of this fact, since memory laws make it a crime to do so. World War II is an element of Mr. Putin’s ahistorical myth of Russian innocence and lost greatness — Russia must enjoy a monopoly on victimhood and on victory. The basic fact that Stalin enabled World War II by allying with Hitler must be unsayable and unthinkable.”

The United States be like “we must stop antisemitism!” and then: arm and glorify famously Neo-Nazi Ukraine whilst doing literally nothing about Neo-Nazi rallys in the states.
Here’s an article on Neo-Nazism in Ukraine, dated 2019:

You can connect the dots yourself on why America only care about antisemitism off US soil!

Turkish revolutionary musical group Grup Yorum reports from Donbass:
"After Donetsk and Lugansk declared independence, rocket fire by imperialist-backed neo-Nazi gangs and the Ukrainian army directed directly at the residents of these regions has never ceased.
"From 2014 to 2022, about 14,000 ordinary people were killed.
"We support the people of Donbass, who are resisting the imperialism of the US and EU and its accomplice, the fascist Ukrainian state."

East Slavic (as opposed to West or South Slavic) culture had its roots in what is now Ukraine.
In the 11th century Kyiv was thriving at a time when what is now the Kremlin was just a place where traders on their way to Novgorod would stop to pee.
Russia even sort of stole the name of the country from Kyivan Rus'.
How Moscow hijacked the history of Ukraine-Rus’
At best, Russia is a former colonial power seeking to re-impose itself on its lost colonies.
Imagine the outrage if Britain tried to take back Nigeria or Kenya. It is hypocritical to be anti-colonialism in Africa and not be anti-colonialism in Europe.
Russia needs to go home and stay home. The only thing to negotiate is how many days it would take Russia to leave Ukraine.

Neocolonialism can be described as the subtle propagation of socio-economic and political activity by former colonial rulers aimed at reinforcing capitalism, neo-liberal globalization, and cultural subjugation of their former colonies. In a neocolonial state, the former colonial masters ensure that the newly independent colonies remain dependent on them for economic and political direction. The dependency and exploitation of the socio-economic and political lives of the now independent colonies are carried out for the economic, political, ideological, cultural, and military benefits of the colonial masters’ home states. This is usually carried out through indirect control of the economic and political practices of the newly independent states instead of through direct military control as was the case in the colonial era.
— Oseni Taiwo Afisi, "Neocolonialism" in the Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy (IEP).

I swear to god, I understand now why various political ideologies get sick and tired of "leftist" now.
If I see one more person call neo liberalism "leftist" I'm going to scream.
I beg of some of you to please do some research, especially on intersectionality!
I'm happy that a lot of you want better policies but "minimum wage should increase and healthcare should be free" is some pretty milquetoast shit tbh. Yall are going to keep getting taken advantage of, including people "on the left" if you don't figure some shit out, kill the cop/oppressor in your head, and disentangle yourself from empires.
Let these events radicalize you, but don't let yourself become ignorant.
Just please at least look into intersectionality and kyriarchy.

By Susann Witt-Stahl
In January, U.S. tech giant Meta, which owns Instagram, Facebook and other social media outlets, removed Azov from its list of dangerous organizations. Since then, Azov as a movement – ​​which, in addition to the combat units, also includes militias for terrorizing opposition members and minorities inside Ukraine, a political party, its own fashion and music labels and a merchandise network – has been able to operate worldwide without restrictions. With its ever-expanding propaganda machine, Azov not only produces fascist warmongering, ideologies of a master race and heroic myths, but also targeted disinformation: above all, the lie that Azov has broken away from Nazism, which is the lie that politicians and the media in the European Union and the United States put forward, being disseminated on a large scale.

« Like Nazi Germany, the Russian Federation will fail to re-imperialize. Its military is demonstrably mediocre, its economy is about as big as that of Italy or Texas, and its governance has become increasingly ineffective and unstable as elites begin to jockey for power in what they view as the rapidly approaching post-Putin era. The immediate future could be even worse, especially if the regime remains guided by the whims of a single autocrat and continues to discourage technological innovation and economic growth.
In a word, Russia’s imperial aspirations are dead, even if the Kremlin thinks otherwise. And the man who presided over their destruction is Putin. »
— Political Science Prof. Alexander J. Motyl at Rutgers University. Writing at the journal Foreign Policy. (archived)
Prof. Motyl has an implied warning at the end of the article...
In the absence of defeat, a militarily and economically weak and misgoverned Russia will remain in thrall to the ideology and attempt, yet again, to re-imperialize—all but certainly with the same results: failure, death, and destruction.
If Russia is not pushed out of Ukraine it will have learned nothing and may pursue the same course elsewhere – even as it continues to decline. Putin's Russia is a persistent problem which will not go away if we ignore it.
Ukraine is not slacking, it is doing the actual fighting in this war. According to Putin's plan, Ukraine was supposed to be in Russian hands by the end of February of 2022. It has held off the world's second biggest (if greatly overrated) military over 20 months. It just needs help with supplies and up to date weaponry.
We just got news of a Russian missile launching ship being taken out by Ukraine. 🇺🇦 😃
Ukraine Says It Blasted Modern Russian Missile Carrier In Kerch Shipyard

The aid the US gives to Ukraine in the long run will increase long term prospects for peace and stability in Eurasia.
