He’s also propped up by Russia
I’m from Canada. We have foreign interference scare propaganda constantly. The scare is China, Russia, and India sometimes. Never the overt US/Israel first election funding/interference, and we are under current annexation threats from one of these. Deflecting from native traitors with direct CIA/mossad support is SOP for US empire colonies.
Absolutely true, but it’s getting much more blatant and easier to see now than it has been over the last decades
that’s right comrade, it is the jews we must fear, not the person shown to be behind every fucking psyop campaign that used to be the head of the fucking KGB, no, it’s the country that can’t even fucking take over a strip without having the entire world shit on them. /s
while 70%+ in all US colonies disapprove of genocidal supremacist fanatics, the rulership/media in all of them is highly supportive of Israel. The theory that Russia is behind making the west deeply hateful as a path to control them into supporting oligarchist militarism including hatred towards Russia, makes little sense, when if they had mind control powers, getting people to demand more services/prosperity through peace would be far more beneficial to Russia. Where rulers/politicians make deals with Russia that you are desperate to hate, it rarely translates into overt geopolitical sympathy towards Russia from that ruler/elite. Geopolitical submission to US/Israel is absolute. Funding is explicit/generous with observable quid pro quo results. Results that directly diminish the people in the colonies. Peace with Russia would not diminish anyone subservient to US empire. But that possibility is a made up political third rail to ensure subservience to usual foreign domination.
Your story would make sense if you assume Russia wants peace.
Russia wants war.
absurd. since 2014, Russia pursued peace through Minsk accords. Even though nazi US empire signed it hypocritically as a delay tactic for instigating the war, the signing was an explicit admission that Ukraine had a nazi ethnic cleansing problem towards the Donbas. Russia has offered peace condition throughout special military operation. As Blinken admitted, for a war the US totally didn’t force upon Russia, “it is a strategic imperative for the US to diminish Russia through continuation of this war”.
The cognitive deficit level of those who support the war on Russia is extremely troubling.
Sure. Give back Crimea.
While Russia is a capitalist power and as such has its own contradictions and reasons to resist support, Ukraine also has US backed Fascists in charge of it’s military and government. So much so that the first thing they did after their coup was pass a ban on Russian language. Something that has expanded to destruction and banning of Russian literature, music, Holidays, property names, historical figures, and more. After the coup there were right wing extremists attacking ethnic Russians including the protests in eastern Ukraine. They were then recruited into the military to “de-radicalize” them. Of course this just made the violence sanctioned by the state. Shortly after the Donetsk, Luhansk sought federalization to protect themselves from Russiaphobia. Instead of respecting independent elections Ukraine bombed the hell out of them.
While yes I’m sure that Russia seeks to use Crimea and the other regions to its personal benefit. You have to realize the danger in returning Crimea, a predominantly ethnic Russian area, to a state that has weaponized and supported its fascists to ethnically cleanse Ukraine. The people support Joining Russia because it was Ukraine that said they were not Ukrainian. Not the other way around. If you look prior to the Euro-maiden you’ll find many ethnically Russian areas agreed that they believed themselves to be Ukrainian. It changed because Ukraine was taken over.
It is dangerous for Russians in Ukraine, not because of Russia but because of the US and western powers funding Right wing extremists. As such, areas that are mostly ethnically Russian do not want to be ruled by the Ukrainian government anymore.
Edit: I mispoke and said that Donetsk, Luhansk declared independence when actually they still wanted to be part of Ukraine but have it federalized. Which would let them choose their own rules such as preventing the language ban and keeping Russian as a government language in the region.
