I like him. Am I not supposed to?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (29 children)

No, actually.

  1. He is holding political prisoners (Kononovyč brothers)
  2. He has banned multiple opposition parties
  3. He is continuing the Majdanite ban on the KPU and communist symbols.
  4. He suspended elections "until the war is over" and also stated "the war won't be over until he takes Krym" Krym is rather deep in Russia's territory by now and Zelenśkyj has trouble with Donbass let alone Krym. This boils down to "Zelenśkyj suspended elections indefinitely." The Majdan regime is a literal fascist regime, attacking Russians and communists. (I'm not saying to support Russia either, although a lot of people on LG would say to support Russia)

Why does he have so much support from NATO countries considering these points?

Look who’s just figuring out that nato is just rebranded imperialism

I'm not arguing, I'm just honestly asking questions. Why is NATO imperialistic? From my perspective, they are trying to help an independent country defend itself from people who are trying to take it from them by force.

No investigation, no right to speak

Oh, and I'm not pro-Russia - fuck Putin - but the Donbass etc voted to secede to Russia and the Ukraine bombed the shit out of them...so yeah. The US and, by extension, NATO, are supporting the war to keep it going because it's a proxy war because Communism scary.

NATO actively pushed the Ukrainians into this war, because what is happening here is a proxy war. NATO, US and EU officials openly admit this, and even brag about it.

This war didn't start in 2022. It started in 2012 with the Maidan coup.

Furthermore, if you think NATO is not an imperialist organization, then I don't think you've been following what has been going on in the world since its inception.

I'm still a bit confused. It was Ukraine that was attacked by Russia and needed to defend itself. How did NATO push them into war?
