Of course! "tankie" has come to mean anyone who is anti imperialist, or basically anyone who isn't credulous enough to believe the US state dept and military.

Do you support Ukraine? If your answer is no, believe it or not, tankie

I support the workers. I do not distinguish between borders. As long as they are not reactionary I support them. What is happening is a tragedy and the pragmatic approach is that the "harm reduction" stance is hastening the seemingly inevitable Russian victory. I just want to see it end and I would rather the side that intervened on behalf of people undergoing pogroms from groups like Azov and other fascists supported by the CIA prevail over the alternative.

Like I said: Principled. I don't care if Putin or the RF have altruistic motives, but I know why this all is happening and how best it can be resolved with minimal bloodshed going forward.

Have you considered that Putin is like Voldemort and Zelenskyy is like Harry Potter? smuglord
