#putin is evil

What Putin is doing in Ukraine is not just reckless, not just a war of choice, not just an invasion in a class of its own for overreach, mendacity, immorality and incompetence, all wrapped in a farrago of lies. What he is doing is evil. He has trumped up any number of shifting justifications — one day it was removing a Nazi regime in power in Kyiv, the next it was preventing NATO expansion, the next it was fending off a Western cultural invasion of Russia — for what ultimately was a personal flight of fancy that now requires his superpower army turning to North Korea for help. It’s like the biggest bank in town having to ask the local pawnshop for a loan. So much for Putin’s bare-chested virility.
[ ... ]
Putin lately has stopped even bothering to justify the war — maybe because even he is too embarrassed to utter aloud the nihilism that his actions scream: If I can’t have Ukraine, I’ll make sure Ukrainians can’t have it, either.
[ … ]
This is as obvious a case of right versus wrong, good versus evil, as you find in international relations since World War II.
[ … ]
Ukraine needs to inflict as much damage on Putin’s army as fast as possible. That means we need to massively and rapidly deliver the weaponry Ukraine needs to break Putin’s lines in the country’s southeast. I’m talking the kitchen sink: F-16s; mine-clearing equipment; more Patriot antimissile systems; MGM-140 Army Tactical Missile Systems, which could strike deep behind Russian lines — whatever the Ukrainians can use effectively and fast.
— New York Times columnist Thomas L. Friedman, just back from a visit to Kyiv. (archived)
If you're in the US, contact your representative in the House and urge him/her to support the proposed $24 billion in aid to Ukraine.
Representatives | house.gov
If you have the misfortune to be represented by a dumb-ass MAGA zombie like Matt Gaetz and they say no, write back and ask: "Why do you hate freedom?"
Wars don't end just because people in third countries get bored with them.

Trump and the white nationalist Republican Party rather would burn America to the ground, rather than live in a country where they have to share even 1% of the country’s wealth, or live in a state where straight Christofascist white men aren’t the absolute masters

“The unarmed and captive Ukrainian soldier who defiantly declared "Glory to Ukraine" before being gunned down in cold blood is fast becoming a symbol of Ukrainian resistance to Russia's unprovoked, genocidal invasion.”
The invaders shoot the captive with the words: “So you bitch. Die, bitch.”
A horrifying video of the execution of a Ukrainian soldier who was captured by the Russian occupiers appeared on the Internet. In the published footage, you can clearly see that the defender of Ukraine is unarmed.
President Zelensky's speech this evening: "Today, a video has emerged of the occupiers brutally killing a warrior who bravely said to their faces: 'Glory to Ukraine!'.
In the recording, the fighter stands quite calmly and smokes, a voice behind the frame says: “Take him down.” In the last moments of his life, a Ukrainian prisoner utters “Glory to Ukraine!”. After that, an automatic burst sounds, the bloodied defender falls.
The Office of the President has already reacted to the video of the shooting of the defender of Ukraine by the invaders and wrote:
“War crimes are cultivated in Russia. And whitewashed by their propaganda and myths about ‘Nazis’. The killing of a person who was captured is another example of this.”

hm for the record i am still very much a communist and still very much support countries like the old USSR and the DPRK and i am 100% against NATO in 100% of the cases because NATO is nothing but a tool of imperialism that is always working for its own self interest no exceptions, no matter what that might mean for innocent civilians caught up in the crossfire. but like you CAN be against something while also being against what theyre against yk. idk where this idea that im a russia supporter comes from lol ive never said anything of the sorts. being willingly provoked into retaliation by NATO doesnt make russia a good guy it just makes NATO a bad guy who was working out of self interest
#neon.txt#i dont bother to make posts about my political views because its impossible to discuss with people who refuse to debate out of good faith#like no matter what i say the moment they hear 'the USSR was not evil actually' all liberals will understand is#'communism is flawless and i love putin and stalin did nothing wrong ever and there were no mistakes in the old USSR'#its just 🤷‍♂️ pointless. ive gotten facts wrong in the past thats for sure but like everytime i end up correcting myself in the end#but people never wanna bring up those cases 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️#im saying this because grape asked me to explain myself and i think its a fair request 🫶#TLDR modern russia very bad NATO bad as well#USSR was not flawless obviously but half of what you know of it is propaganda or things extremely lacking in context#i am always willing to debate these things but i ignore and block anybody who wants to debate out of bad faith#i am a communist. and i look up to real communist experiences for guidance and inspiration. both for their flaws AND their hits.#because there is absolutely no point to being a communist or being against capitalism if you arent willing to actually Do something about it#and Doing Something means there will be mistakes eventually. as is discussing politics. as much as i wish that was the case i cant#get my facts right 100% of the time lol sorry about that but like i am ALWAYS willing to listen to people who arent being bitches about it
