    God forbid somebody can be against US imperialism and against Russian imperialism simultaneously, that’s much too nuanced.

    I think the most common position I’ve seen on these “tankie” spaces is:

    I mean the current state of Russia is the consequence of the illegal dissolution of the Soviet Union against the will of the people after all.

      I think that liberals see this as the term that the other guy used: “Butwutaboutdawest”
