        You’re the only liberal here for kissing a capitalist nation’s ass.

          Hey, coward, explain how you can simultaneously believe that the Donbas is independent and that when Russian troops entered their territory at their request that constituted an invasion.

          Explain or admit that you don’t consistently believe in self determination.

            When did I say I’m against Russian troops entering Donbas territory? I made it very clear I’m against Russian troops entering anywhere BUT Donbas. Love how you guys claim to be anti-war until the millisecond a non-western nation is the one committing war crime atrocities and mass murdering civilians.

              Honestly I wouldn’t even much of a problem if they just invaded Donbas

              How could they possibly invade the Donbas at all when they were invited?

                Semantics. I didn’t mean “invade,” that was just the word that came in my head. You know damn well what I meant.

                  It came into your head for a reason, liar. I guess going forward, nobody should assume that you mean what you say.

                Right, and the sky is green too.

                Adding the word “socialist” in front of “market economy” doesn’t make it any less capitalist. I’m done with this.

                  nuh uh because it means that the CPC has final say over shit with regards to the economy and governance instead of just leaving things up to the market like a true capitalist country
