The reactionary left without irony call Ukrainians nazis while standing in support of Russia.

They support Gaza against Israel but completely shut down any comparisons of Gaza and Ukraine.

Reactionaries are typically authoritarians and just another shade of right wing hierarchy government. Left wing reactionaries have no idea what they want because they don't have an honest understanding of history.

A bonus from a recent Very Serious Leftist:

This is what no-theory does to a motherfucker. There are no ‘good guys’ in the Ukrainian war except the people of Ukraine themselves, only giant and bloated imperial states fighting over imaginary territorial lines with the unwilling sacrifice of working class blood. Tankies might object to that war because they prefer Russia to the west, but I oppose that war because the working class is forced to battle over geopolitical supremacy, and in the end will live as indentured servants to the west. The working class have everything to lose and the least to gain from that war. I have zero problem condemning that whole conflict.

No war but class war, bootlicker.

If i could give out three nobel peace prizes, the first would be to the south african delegation, the second to the doctors in gaza, and the third to the houthis. We might disagree on a lot, but i’ll join hands with anyone to fight for the right to self-determination of any people against any genocide.

Turns out anti-imperialism only counts when the group fighting against imperialism is unimpugnable - like the Houthis, and unlike Ukraine.
