Has Russia disbanded the Rusich Group?

I'm refusing to engage with "facts" that are false. Russia is currently engaging in a genocidal war of aggression. They are bad.

Also, it’s ridiculous to imply that just because I understand something, that means I support it.

That's what I'm saying. I'm not saying you're a tankie because you're parroting false Russian propaganda talking points, I'm just saying I understand why people are saying that you are one. You know, the exact same thing that you're doing where you're trying to mask your support of Russia by saying you don't support it, but you do understand it.

Also, it’s ridiculous to imply that just because I understand something, that means I support it.

I don't disagree with this. I disagree with your assertion that you understand the reasons for the war.

while using a slur

  1. Tankie is not a slur.
  2. I didn't call you a tankie.

I can see why people say you're a tanking considering how you're literally parroting Russian talking points and having a suspiciously large amount of understanding for the excuses of Russian imperialism while not sharing the understanding with other imperialist nations.

At least we both agree that the correct solution to the Cuban missile crisis was the invasion and genocide of Cuba, or something.

I am also not a supporter of Putin’s war of aggression, although I do understand why he thought the war was necessary, and agree that those reasons are real (not saying that the war was necessary, just saying that Putin is not a lunatic).

Since you understand the Russian POV that big countries have spheres of influence that they control and little countries do not have agency, then you obviously also agree that the Americas are within the US sphere of influence and understand why they did all the coups that they did (not saying they were necessary, just saying that the US is not any more imperialist than Russia)?
