Not every war can be compared to WW2.

Russia isn’t Nazi Germany, the situation is far more akin to the WW1.

There is nothing funny about the situation.

Ukraine is enacting mass conscription now, is including their medical staff, is trying to make students leave their studies to join up, has expanded conscription to 16 year olds and grandads, and is actively trying to draw in EU/NATO countries in the frey risking all out war (Romania is the latest one).

Shit’s absolutely fucked. We are talking hundreds of thousands of casualties, an entire generation of Ukrainian either maimed, dead, or gone from Ukraine out right,mass sweeping liberalization reforms in an already poor as fuck country destroying the few labour rights that existed before the war. Members of pacifist organizations are being put on trial. And that’s the state that you libs are defending?

The war is not going well.

And to be clear, neither is it for Russia. Principled communists and anti-war people are being arrested too, and the initial partial mobilization brought people to th front who would rather have not. There is similar repression, and economic hardship to the common people. There also was mass emigration (particularly to Georgia, Turkey, Bulgaria, and others).

What is it you want really?

Have more common people die for nothing? Escalate things to “deal with Russia” which means inherently an overt NATO/Russia war (which it seems barring the Baltic members, no one wants) inevitably leading to all out nuclear war?

Are you mad?? This isn’t a sport’s game. Be serious. You are deeply propagandized and itts leading you to deeply irrational positions.

Libya today is a haven for islamic terrorism and slaver markets. Regardless of the “legality” of the NATO (mostly french and US led) intervention, it threw the entire region in outright chaos, and was enormously damaging to the working class of Lybia, but also of the entire fucking Sahel.

No the real answer is these people somehow think their constant egging on escalation instead of some sort of diplomatic resolution, won’t eventually lead inevitably to the war escaping its proxy status and evolve into a REAL inter-imperialist direct confrontation with all of what it implies (it implies nukes)

Someone has read Lenin hihi

(Lenin exactly refers to the Belgium question in WW1 in “Socialism and the War”)

Exactly this.

Revolutionary defeatism is the name of the word. Those who should be concerned with Russian imperialism must be russian working class people.

We in the west have to fight against our own imperalists. It’s very simple and in the end very logical.

The famed counter offensive that western media has now described as incapable because of “ukrainians are too soviet brained” (the racism really did jump out lately), due to it absolutely failing to acheive its stated objectives, and leading to a situation far more reminsicent to WW1 murderous slog, and probably would have been even worse had Ukraine actually applied to a T the nonsense the US and more broadly NATO was telling them to do?

Brother it’s been months and we are talking few kms of wins, it’s longer than the already absolutely ridiculous Russian assault on Bakhmut, for far less.

It’s time to end this shit. A diplomatic resolution is crucial, and in terms of the POV of working class people in the west, we must stop the endless billions sent to maintain a steady flow of ukraiian and russian soldiers to the meat grinder, particularly given our own issues.

You debatebroed the debate bro with actual fact and logics, holy hell

(notice how they haven’t responded after lol)

From the reports its the entire high command that got merked on that plane sooooo…maybe nobody and Wagner get fully absored in the Russian armed forces, who is to say

That’s actually not very accurate.

The original Ukrainian-Canadian population (and their organizations) were by and large ardent socialist supporters, and played a huge role in the strengthening of organized labour and various socialist and communist organisations (such as the communist party of canada!). They supported the USSR and saw it as an inspiration. Most of them had left before 1917. The Association of United Ukrainian Canadians is an inheritence from this time and still controls a bunch of Ukrainian labour temples. They ARE quite small compared to the other ones, particularly the fascist / banderist UCC.

It gets much darker post WW2, when Canada brought in thousands of nazi collaborators (one of the qualifications for getting in was showing your nazi tattoo…). They then went in a frontal attack on progressive and socialist Ukrainian community orgs, with the Canadian government actively helping the then nascent UCC gain hegemony. Huge ties with the OUN fascists abound, and many nazi collaboration statues can be found across the country.

So basically; your comment is accurate in its depiction of post WW2 Ukrainian immigrants, but not accurate prior to that, and kind of erases the awesome and good folks of the AUUC trying their hardest to counteract the UCC today. Especially right now in their attempts to organize recent Ukrainian immigrants, many of which are not politicized and generally not particularly fascist or anything. The UCC leadership actually has huge contempt for them (after all they ran away from the “good fight”!), but are doing a lot of efforts to radicalize them on arrival.

Mandatory fuck Freeland she is a nazi.
