Downvoters, if you don’t explain your downvote, we’ll assume it’s because you know we’re right and you don’t want to admit it.

I wouldn’t call it a bad take on Russia and certainly nowhere near SRS or dunk tank worthy. Russia today is no USSR; accusing us of stanning Russia is something the libs do.

The word critical in critical support is there for a reason. We support the opposing US imperialism, but they’d be next on the chopping block if the US were to fall tomorrow, which is exactly the point he seems to be articulating (although he seems to have used a lot more words to say critical support than necessary)

Arguably, the more interesting part is his views on other AES countries like the DPRK here. The PRC absolutely has a great strategy, but I don’t think the roles of the others should be downplayed.

Would you mind explaining? I heard China uses “democratic centralism” which seems to give people far more of a say.

Lemmygrad is here! So glad you’re federated now!

If you’re accusing us of supporting “genocide and secret police,” you should provide sources to back up your claim.

If you’re doing a devil’s advocate of something you don’t support, you should critique it.

Otherwise it has “I’m not racist but insert racism” vibes
