More like authoritarian. If you were a communist you'd care about the people in Russia, not the government. If you are a communist, you're a pretty shit one.

and this is probably unironically said by someone from the land of the free.

From? Yes. What does that have to do with anything? It's about what you agree with, not where you're from, right?

Also, again, whataboutism. You can't defend yourself, so you go on offense. Why don't you care about the people? You're a pretty poor communist if you can have comrades in oppressive places, and only defend authoritarian governments who abuse their citizens.

Am I supposed to believe your crocodile tears for the poor Russian people? LOL
The RuZZians orThe orcs as you dehumanising Russophobes call them constantly?

OK then, let's have some facts.
Despite being political enemies they understand that the coup and NATO expansion with nukes in ukraine is unacceptable.
So they pragmatically support Putin in this case. And so do I.

But I guess NATO nukes threatening the Russian people and NATO bases all around them is OK with you, not hypocritical at all.
Just as nobody in the west cared about the ethnic Russians (35%+ of ex-ukraine) getting bombed by Azov nazis.
No, just as the zionists claim history starts from oct 7, the war only started when Russia intervened.
Totally nothing had happened before.

And also you would rather continue this lost war to the last poor ukrainian too, as Lindsey Graham wants.
As long as it hurts the Russians.
Who's getting abused here?

And talking about communists:

The communist party, despite being opposition to Putin is not forbidden in Russia.
Free and democratic ukraine banned no less than 11 parties.
Put union leaders in jail, etc..

Many others followed, left and right-wing.

See, that's how you argue, with facts, you on the contrary can't defend yourself.
A cringe insinsere appeal to emotion doesn't cut it.
