incredible, you people have even twisted Russia attacking Ukraine into America's fault. like yes, America is awful, but Jesus christ you people sound like evangelical Christians talking about Satan. this shit has gotten downright religious.

It's the usual "everything is the west's fault" bullshit with these morons. Absolute cowards who are unable to accept ownership of their actions.

Yeltsin was in washington a couple of days before the perestroika. How dumb can you be?

It's not "america"'s fault, it's the fault of the capitalists who happen to be in power there. You realize war is their endgame, yes? What, you think they wanted to end the USSR because they cared about human rights and freedom?

They wanted to revert back to the ethnostates situation having endless wars. Case in point, that's what's happening.

if you're going to make the argument that America collapsed the USSR and want people to take you seriously you need to cut it out with your great man model of history and switch to using a Marxist model of history. when you look at states not through their leaders and instead through their economic bases, you find that in the mid 80s, Russia started switching from a public sector econony where who controlled manufacturing and business was the government to multinational corporations, the most notable of which was Yum! Brand Foods who opened a pizza hut in red square in 1985.

Even now, Yum! Brand Foods main partner, Pepsico is one of the most powerful oligarchs in the world, being listed both as an international sponsor of war in Ukraine and a beneficiary of Israel's genocide in Palestine as their manufacturing equipment is made on stolen land with slave labor.

if you want to undo the global system of capital you have to stop looking at China, Russia, and the United States as adversaries and instead as co-conspirators who create an illusion of opposition while they exploit the global south.
