    The hate to Russia is somewhat misplaced, Putinism is more or less a by product of America. It will be less a problem once Americans stop hate themselves.

      So it’s America’s fault Putin wants to reclaim old Soviet land. What kind of weak feeble minded child is Putin if that is her motivation.

        So it’s America’s fault

        Quite literally yes. The US is the country behind the privatisation of all national assets in Russia that ended up in the hands of oligarchs, it was literally carried out under the guidance of MIT economists.

        It’s America’s fault that America is turning fascist. You don’t just get to run a 200 year political experiment built on genocide under the guidance of white landowners, and then start scapegoating Russians once that project inevitably and predictably goes fascists. This is American exceptionalism.

            “The wholesale American genocide of Native Americans is Ruzzian propaganda!”

                Like… what is your point though? “Abolish all states”? While that would be based, I’m afraid that’s not what you meant.

                What point? That in order for any country to form, it must carry out a genocide so effective that it inspires Hitler? And I am the apologist?

                Your comment is honestly psychopathic in the way you use “blood” as a euphemism for a genocide that killed some 10 million Native Americans.

      Nonetheless, burning a house down doesn’t rebuild any houses, even if it is the arsonist’s house going up in flames.
