Russia isn’t trying to vassalize Belarus, etc, and doesn’t want to “conquer Ukraine,” it just wants to annex the Donbass region that already seceded from Kiev after the Banderite coup. Russia tries to draw on soviet nostalgia to keep the capitalists in power and prevent the communists from taking power. Imperialism is a stage in capitalism, not a mere policy preference. As for the universal condemnation of force, this means you don’t support the Statesian north abolishing chattel slavery in the south, or any revolution in history. Reality is far more complex than that, which is why the good side lost the Cold War.

Well, seems we have a deeply different perception of reality. It’s hard for me to understand yours without assuming hardly brainwashing or lying, but I don’t see a reason to discuss this as we won’t agree on that. Russia is the part of the United Nations, as the official announced follower state of Soviet Union even a founding member and permanent part of the UN Security Council. And currently in Ukraine it’s violating many many rules of the UN Charta. Don’t come with ‚USA is Doing also!‘ because shit USA or anyone else is doing isn’t a reason to do the same or worse. Some people in Ukrainian oblast wanted Ukraine to be part of Russia. That’s not a reason to invade. Neither in Ukraine nor other countries. I think almost every countries has parts of the population that wants to belong to another country or independence. That isn’t a justification to send troops to this country and and harm UN Charta. And by the way: the international criminal court (ratified by 125 countries all over the world, also many from the global south) not just issued an arrest warrant because of war crimes against humanity and genocide for Putin but also for Netanjahu. I support both of them and think it should be common sense for anyone interested in human rights and peace. And downvoting me because of this tells a lot about yourself.
