I still think that the underlying problem is purely a collapsing economic system. This has always been the case in the capitalist system when, due to some crisis, the speculative bubble burst, always in the quest for infinite growth. This situation always ended with a war, for which any pretext was used, to make a reset, especially by imperialist countries whose largest investments are in the military and weapons field. Destroyed countries with a reduced population are always a huge deal with reconstruction, to start this cycle of infinite growth again. It’s that simple. All of the current neo-liberal governments should be hanged by the balls to do justice to the people who, as always, pay for these excesses with misery and suffering.
The fact that Ukraine was falling apart all on its own was why I didn’t see the logic in Russia actually invading. They could’ve just sat there and waited for more regions to separate.

Perhaps Putin knows something the rest of us don’t.
Like, I dunno… that more regions didn’t want to separate, and any pretense to the contrary was purely through his own meddling?
Russia was not going to wait for the Ukronazi offensive, but decided to attack first. Now its time to demilitarize and denazify Ukraine. No clear confirmation of a Russian ground invasion, the attack was carried out with artillery and air strikes on military targets (and very effectively).
Is this just the Cliffnotes of a Putin speech?
And here I was being told that Russia was just dropping by a couple of separatist regions by invitation and wasn’t going to invade. I’m getting ready for those goalposts to move like lightning. Oh no, that’s not imperialist bullying, merely a light shelling.
Nothing says “protecting civilians” like a little shelling
There has been no shelling of civilian targets.
On what basis do you make that claim?
