Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

It’s lemmygrad, we’re the spectre. I’d bet at least half of the other instances out there block us, there’s only like 300 dedicated users on this instance, and they still can’t stop complaining about lemmygrad/tankies

Aight I googled it because learning is fun

a policy of extending a country's power and influence through colonization, use of military force, or other means*

Sounds like it fits mate

Lmao, you probably think the soviets pushing into Nazi Germany on the eastern front is Russian "imperialism" too, since a military entered a foreign country. Read a book.

Not at all dude. Russia defended its land in an existential war against a fascism in way not dissimilar to what Ukraine is doing right now. I suppose the question is why does Russia 41-45 have the right to defend their sovereignty while Ukraine 2014-present does not? Don’t forget that the Soviets benefitted massively from US and British arms and equipment much like Ukraine today.

Do yourself a favor and see what happened in 2014.

I'll give you a hint. It was a coup.
