What do tankies think of all the millions of citizens Russia killed in the ussr existance?
Never happened, also it was just a few thousand, also they were kulaks and Ukrainians did it anyway. But also never happened, western propaganda. And what about NATO bombing Belgrade?!?!?!?!
The same you feel when I ask about the millions killed yearly due to imperialism & capitalist overreach.
Is Russia communist? Also is Russian annexation not Imperialist? Just seems hypocritical is all. We know imperial capitalism is fucked up and we protest it regularly.
Modern Russia is an imperialist shit hole. The question I was asked was about the Soviet.
Oh my bad. I thought you were talking about modern death tolls. I, wrongly, assume most of your .ml compatriots are uncritical Russian chauvinists. Sorry.
It’s not the same as all. I don’t support any killings. But you, you have just now with your comment, tried to excuse all the violence and terror and suffering and death caused by ussr, by saying: the other side does it too. Thats seriously messed up. What kind of a person thinks like that. Despicable.
I don’t support any killings.
Clearly you do. You support a world order that can only survive on exploitation of the global south and developing world. So yes. You do.
You can pretend all you want. But you benefit from those killings you don’t speak out against. That is tacit support.
We can and should do everything we can to minimize suffering. You want to bury your head in the sand about the killing and suffering needed to support your lifestyle.

EDIT: The post above this was just saying that I was trying to “No u” him, but he called me a bad name, so the mod tagged it, just for context. To be fair, I am saying that it happened and happens in many cases, so I can see the argument, I just think it’s inaccurate.
We both do. I just don’t hide from that fact and work to minimize the damage.

Don’t show this meme to .ml users.
According to them Russia could invade Ukraine in 2014 but Ukraine shouldn’t have fired back because “what about the kids?!”
1981 Nikaragua
Those evil Soviet imperialists, supporting a popular anti-colonial movement that brought literacy, healthcare, and land reform, against a corrupt dictator and capitalist death squads! Don’t they know that fighting colonialism and lifting people out of poverty is imperialism?
Marxist-Leninists support Soviet and Chinese imperialism for the same reason liberals support Western imperialism: they’re both ideologues who want their people and ideals at the top of the global hegemonic order. They’re in a war for global ideological (and possibly ethnic) supremacy, with the winner getting to rule the world.
Hate to break it to you bud but capitalism is already the world order. Now I need you to stay late tonight so we can get this shipment of bombs out to countries in Europe and the Middle East.
Of course, I should have said the Western liberals are defending their position atop the global hegemonic order, and the MLs are trying to unseat them.
Democrats, libs, and antifa, oh my!
