Whether you view Russia’s decision a year ago to intervene in Ukraine as correct from an anti-imperialist perspective depends on which metric you’re using in your strategic calculus. When one is only looking at the events from inside the imperialist benefactor countries, and the eastern European countries where Nazi nostalgia has created support for Ukrainian fascism, Operation Z’s impacts appear to be overall positive for the forces of reaction. When you look at the wider context, and account for the events from the wider globe, it’s obvious that Z’s impacts have been overall positive for the revolutionary forces. And that Z therefore is historically progressive in character.

Ok. What have you done to weaken US hegemony, then? If we don’t need Russia surely there is a much better marxist alternative already militarily weakening the US, right? Because if so I’m happy to drop all support for Putin.
I would absolutely love it if the communist party of russia (putin’s only relevant opposition) managed to pull off a coup, but until that happens we work with what we got.
