Tucker Carlson interviews Vladimir Putin in Moscow, Russia. February 6th, 2024. Read the transcript here.

I wanted to give this it's own thread. USA clearly engaging in history revisionism. Putin is clearly no Communist, but anyone claiming he invaded Ukraine for no reason and wants to invade his neighbors have drunk the CIA propaganda Flavoraid. These claims are easily certifiable with minimum search efforts.

Of course I support Cuba. Long before I supported Russia. Back when I thought liberals stood for democracy. Prove anything wrong, rather than throwing what you consider insults. Show aggression done by Russia post Reagan.

Btw, it was Jimmy Carter who affirmed the One China Policy, Japan attacked USA, China and it was RUSSIA who brought them under control. USA dropped nukes for no reason. The only state, so far, to use nukes.

Thank you for proving my point. You don't care about anti-imperialism or some realpolitik right of preemptive aggression to block an adversary, just team "whoever is against the US".

The people of Cuba deserves sovereignty, so do the people of Gaza, the people of Taiwan, and the people of Ukraine. Fuck the imperialists and fuck their apologists. That's actual progressive politics you poser.

You haven't shown Russian aggression post Reagan, other than Nazi Ukraine, which is righteous and good.

Everything else was a separate topic. I answered honestly anyway.
