    It’s the entire concept of “critical support,” an enemy acting against a bigger enemy can be relied on with respect to their stance against said mutual enemy.

    Does that not require a more indepth investigation into the motive of the country you are critically supporting, and isn’t that investigation reliant on perspective?

    In one perspective you could critically support Russia for inciting destructive competition between the great powers. While criticizing their motive, and means.

    On the other you could critically support Ukraine for defending themselves from colonial extraction from great power. While criticizing reactionary forces within their government.

    you can ask Marxists directly in their comms for more info, this is a comm for Anarchism and I don’t wish to infringe on that.

    Fair enough, just thought I should take the opportunity while I could. I have tried to breach this subject a couple different times in their comm, but tend to just get called a Nazi or other slurs.

    Thanks for the dialogue, I appreciate it.
