Yeah, so it’s the west that’s been bombing, shooting and raping civilians in Ukraine? How could I have not noticed that before?

And you are not my friend.

A peace deal proposed by arms suppliers to one of the parties in the conflict just might be a bit one-sided, don’t you think?

Russia only exists in its present form because the Russians subjugated 190 other nationalities in a centuries-long imperialist expansion.

Sovereign countries can’t choose their allies? Really? When long-time neutral countries have decided that not even being neutral will protect them anymore from invasion, your answer is that they should be invaded?

Russia has the world’s largest land mass of any country, and the longest border. And they think they’re entitled buffer states all along that border? How is that in the interest of the people in those neighboring states? Most of them have already experienced the joys of having a Russian boot on their neck, and have voted with their feet to control their own destinies instead.

All I want to know is whether you’re getting paid for this or it’s just a hobby for you.

Oh, also what it’ll take for you to go away and never come back.

Without western support, Zelensky won’t be able to terrorize Ukrainians anymore.

Yeah, right. Zelensky won’t be able to “terrorize” Ukrainians by resisting an imperialist invasion, and Putin will turn the entire country into a concentration camp run by a Russian stooge, while systematically destroying Ukrainian identity (which is cultural genocide) and strip-mining Ukraine of anything worth stealing.

And when such trustworthy nations as China and Iran, both of whom have been providing weapons to Russia, offer a peace plan, anyone who’s not an idiot will know that the plan rewards the aggressor and demands the capitulation of the victim. Just like China’s “peaceful” intentions towards Taiwan, and their “peaceful” seizure of territory in the Philippines. And we all know what a force for global peace the mad mullahs in Iran have been, when they’re not busy murderously suppressing anti-government demonstrations by their own people.

Then Putin will go on to similarly “liberate” the Latvians, Lithuanians, Estonians, Moldovans, Georgians, and if Trump sufficiently undermines NATO, Poland too.

So what is China trying to extract from Zambia and Tanzania?

You can if you’re building out technology to wean yourself from that critical resource at the same time.

That was all entirely altruistic? Then it must be coincidental that it sounds exactly like the infrastructure the Brits built in India (minus the 5G), whose sole purpose was wealth extraction.

They don’t ask, but they want to extract all the resources they can. and never mind the people living there.

The US is not the only imperialist power.
