Someone from the US banana republic with its pathetic uniparty system with a fascist and slightly less fascist (already ridiculed by Marx in 1891) side has no idea what communism is.
You people just throw words around with the understanding of a geopolitics and history of a toddler.
And you would know even less about what Russian people think.
OC that doesn't stop a pretentious american from speaking for them.
You haven't read word of theory.
Some edgy 'anarchist' teen with a Che t-shirt isn't a communist.
Communists are never on the side of US imperialism.
Certainly not their fascist proxies.
They are also not 'the people'.
The Soviets dealth with them in WW2 while the US/UK saved most of them and rehabilitated their friends.
They welcomed fascist regimes in NATO from Greece, Spain, Portugal supported plenty more around the world.
That mask has long fallen for anyone who isn't politically illiterate. And now their age of bullying and power is over they desperately try to get Europe in a war again to harm their enemy.
Their usual cowarldy way of letting others do the fighting.
They will fail again and Russia (even if not communist) will deal with them again.
You can cry and pretend you're for 'the people' or non-existent 'western democratic values' all you want.
You are supporting fascism.

Cool comment. None of it matters.

They will fail again and Russia (even if not communist) will deal with them again.

Well, at least you agree with that. Damn. A bunch of "what about", strawmaning, and no true scotsman in there just for you to finally agree anyway.

I have never said I support the US by the way. You're just trying to tie me to that so you don't have to defend yourself, because you still haven't. You're not a fucking communist. You're a russophile authoritarian. Anything Russia does you approve of. It doesn't matter how much the bourgeoisie use and abuse the proletariat. It's fine as long as it's Russia.

I sure hope you're not a Scotsman.
Definitely not a 'true' one, they wouldn't lick the boot of their UK imperialist masters. Who in turn lick the boot of their US masters.

I don't know if you're playing dumb or actually dumb, but no true scotsman is a logical fallacy, where you say someone isn't a true [thing] because they don't meet ever precise definitions you make up.

Also, you do realize Scotland is part of the UK, right?

Anyway, this is all just you trying to distract from the fact that you can't defend the actions of Russia, or your starting position. You have to constantly shift things and hope people forget. You aren't a communist if you support the bourgeoisie using the proletariat for stupid self-centered goals. It doesn't matter where we're from. The proletariat everywhere is being used and abused by the elite. A communist would know this. It doesn't matter if you're in Russia or the US. They're using us for their own gain, and they don't care about us.
