President signed the legislation championed by late senator Lindsey Graham last month but has waived the restrictions as they were due to come into effect

Maybe “the West” no longer exists. There’s just the US and then there’s Europe, and each of them is doing their own thing.

    Is it a “tankie” position to demand the democratic right of self determination?

    Ukrainians are neofeudal corporate serfs under a fascist junta owned by Blackrock. All opposition parties are banned. All opposition media has been seized by the state. Men can’t even leave to escape this Banderite death cult.

    Just an impossible victory or an inevitable death?

      As opposed to the based countries of Russia, China, etc, which have no feudal characteristics, political opposition is healthy and plentiful, have zero control of the media, and you can just say “no thanks” when you are called to fight

        Russia does not have compulsory conscription. Did you think that was true just based on your spoon fed propaganda? Is this an emotional truth for you?

        Russia and China are liberators and peacemakers, respectfully.

        Just in the Sahel, Russia is helping bring to a close centuries of unending colonialism by Europe and America.

        The unipolar world order is over, and I personally think it couldn’t have come soon enough.

          Do you think the 600.000 soldiers and 13.000 civilians that have died so far in the war would agree with this sentiment? How is China a peacemaker while threatening their neighbors with war?

            There’s actually far more soldier deaths, as the Discord Leaks showed. The Ukraine War is nothing but lies.

            But yes, so little civilian deaths is unheard of, and almost all from Ukraine’s retribution on their own supposed people.

            China brokered peace between Saudi Arabia and Yemen before America and Israel arbitrarily attacked Iran, triggering Saudi attacks on Yemen. China has consistently pushed for mediation and diplomacy at the UN.

            America is out of control and needs to be stopped, and this didn’t start with Trump.

            We currently arms over 80% of all dictatorships.

            America is the biggest threat to global democracy, security, and peace globally.

              Right, China is completely peaceful towards its neighbors, Japan, India, Taiwan and the Philippines have nothing but positive things to say. The aggressor Russia is doing nothing wrong, and all evidence to the contrary is fake → there is no point talking to you.

                Japan occupied China and committed genocide.

                Japan occupied the Philippines and committed genocide.

                Don’t forget Korea, same thing.

                Taiwan is China, only occupied by a warlord after the war. China has patiently and peacefully waited for reunification.

                You seem to think China simply existing after all this is a threat.

                And same with Russia, every war with Russia has always come from Europe attacking it. Now is no different. And the reason is obvious, same reason we always attack someone.👇

      I think you meant “Russians”. Russians are neofeudal corporate serfs under a fascist junta owned by Putin. Which is why they’re invading other countries and stealing their land and children and bringing them under authoritarian rule. Because nazis do what nazis do.

      You sound like you’re neck deep in propaganda, my friend. You need deprogramming, but I don’t have the skills for it.

        You’re talking a sparsely populated nation with the same GDP as South Korea.

        Yeah, they’re the problem. Sure. It couldn’t be anything else. Right? Right? Right?

          Sitting on $75T of resources but they’re too incompetent to do anything with it. Not surprising because it’s a country of useless fascists who have dumbass cheer leaders like you.

          The world would be such a better place if they kept to themselves and their $75T treasure.

      Men can’t leave because they were invaded by Russia.

      I love the democratic right of self determination, that’s why I support the EU, the last democracy on earth.

        Being tied to the land is serfdom. Slavery.

        No choice to sue for peace, just an impossible victory or inevitable death. Democracy is derived from the individual and nothing else, not religion, not race, not land, not arbitrary borders, not even nations.

        People have a right to exist, not nations.

        Fuck Ukraine. Fuck Israel. Fuck the U.S.
