The USSR would've simply directly funded and/or militarily supported Hamas, Hezbollah, etc. And they did do so with with the PFLP until the USSR was overthrown.
Though ig two superpowers militarily supporting opposide sides has the risk of just turning the place into a warzone like what happened with Afghanistan.
US-aligned shit "state" does US-aligned shit. Not surprising
Come on, join your Cuban comrades and do communist revolution already
But what about the poor billionaires 😢
Don't bother lol. These dogs of the empire will believe whatever bullshit their governments tell them to try justifying their imperialism, no evidence needed. Be it WMDs or whatever.
The idiot below actually believes the "mass rape" shit their government mouthpieces told them that their own media have debunked.
Also, "immediately" they say lmao when it took the combined strength of the US and UK 8 years to destabilize. And they only could because Libya gave up their nuclear deterrent.
Lmao this even claims that Iran is involved (doubt).
Still, that's US, Japan, Myanmar and Iran involved in this. What is this, a party?
Cuz words like that are usually used for countries, while "israel" is just a western colony in Palestine.
cannot be equated with terrorism
The only terrorists here are the "israeli" militants.
I'm not really justifying the invasion. Its aims of suppressing the far-right in western Ukraine seems to have kinda backfired from this after all, with the Ukraine gov using this as an excuse to suppress the left.
Point is, what else could've they done? They've already tried to join NATO multiple times from even before the USSR's dissolution and have been denied (since it exists to suppress socialism, and particularly Russia, just look up what their first secretary Ismay has said about NATO's purpose, globally, not give them a say) and they already had the Minsk agreements which the US sidelined through the coup. Not doing something about it would lead to the continued killing of ethnic Russians in eastern Ukraine, and NATO getting even closer to Russia since the post-2014 US puppet gov doesn't abide by the Minsk agreements.
you’re not the person my question was directed at
This post is open to everyone you know? OP can still respond to you if they feel like it. Wouldn't blame them for not doing so though cuz it can get pretty tiring to continuously debunk western propaganda with how prevalent it is in english-speaking spaces.
Ukraine... Russia isn't socialist anymore you know? Gorbachev ended that back in 1991 with the help of his western allies, against the wishes of the population, over 90% of which voted for the USSR to remain.
Still, this current war started in 2014 with the CIA-backed fascist coup and the subsequent killing of ethnic Russians in eastern Ukraine, like in Donbas and Crimea, for resisting the coup gov.
This was the results of the 2010 elections for example.
Eastern Ukrainians don't support the current gov, and even welcomed the Russian army as liberators in 2022.
And as for China, the US and its allies are the only ones accusing them of mishandling the ETIM in Xinjiang. Muslim countries and the Global South approve of China's policies.
35+ mostly muslim UN states have approved of how China handled this after sending delegates and diplomats to Xinjiang:
...separatism and religious extremism has caused enormous damage to people of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang, which has seriously infringed upon human rights, including right to life, health and development. Faced with the grave challenge of terrorism and extremism, China has undertaken a series of counter-terrorism and deradicalization measures in Xinjiang, including setting up vocational education and training centers. Now safety and security has returned to Xinjiang and the fundamental human rights of people of all ethnic groups there are safeguarded. The past three consecutive years has seen not a single terrorist attack in Xinjiang and people there enjoy a stronger sense of happiness, fulfillment and security. We note with appreciation that human rights are respected and protected in China in the process of counter-terrorism and deradicalization.
We appreciate China’s commitment to openness and transparency. China has invited a number of diplomats, international organizations officials and journalist to Xinjiang to witness the progress of the human rights cause and the outcomes of counter-terrorism and deradicalization there. What they saw and heard in Xinjiang completely contradicted what was reported in the media. We call on relevant countries to refrain from employing unfounded charges against China based on unconfirmed information before they visit Xinjiang.
The Organization of Islamic Cooperation approve of China's treatment of its Muslim population.
- Welcomes the outcomes of the visit conducted by the General Secretariat's delegation upon invitation from the People's Republic of China; commends the efforts of the People's Republic of China in providing care to its Muslim citizens; and looks forward to further cooperation between the OIC and the People's Republic of China.
Unlike other countries, China has mostly responded to ETIM's attacks by building vocational training centers and integrating the region better into the rest of China's economy, that is to say they are tackling the material reasons for why someone would have to resort to violence in the first place. And it has been successful, hence the Global South countries approving of it.
You can visit Xinjiang and see it for yourself btw since covid restrictions are gone now, and there's alot of yt videos doing just that.
"What would happen if capital succeeded in smashing the Republic of Soviets? There would set in an era of the blackest reaction in all the capitalist and colonial countries, the working class and the oppressed peoples would be seized by the throat, the positions of international communism would be lost."
The GDR called western govs' habit of pinkwashing their imperialism — only possible because non-imperial core countries are the victims of colonialism are thus less economically stable, which is generally correlated with LGBT rights — the "political misuse of homosexuals" and had started improving LGBT rights and protections in the 80s.
If the Soviet bloc wasn't overthrown afterwards, I'm sure the rest of the Soviet states would've followed suit. Probably part of why Cuba did so too.
