The Left Party says “there shouldn’t be any billionaires.” With Germany gearing up for an election, the far-left force has launched a new tax plan — though it will most likely never get a chance to implement it.

    Ukraine wants to align with the West. Of course Western companies will want to do business there.

    Sure bud, you hate both Russia and West but say Russia is the boogeyman even though they are the ones who invaded another country unprovoked.

      ‘unprovoked’ is just false on its face. Iraq was invaded without provocation, Libya, around 70 other countries in the last 40 years.

        And so you believe that Ukraine deserves to be invaded by Russia since the West did the same?

          No I think helping them is racist and hypocritical, given the long history of the West doing far, far worse than Russia.

          All of you are capitalist liberal democracies that constantly invade and plunder whoever you like. You’re only mad at Russia because most Ukrainians are white. You’re not supposed to invade the white ones.

            People have called out the invasion of Iraq and Libya. The protest against the former has been in the Guiness World Record as the biggest demonstration across the world. You must be living under the rock for the past twenty years if you think Westerners did not care.

            Fwiw, the election of right populist politicians in recent years in the West has been a reaction to hypocritical Western foreign policies and mismanaged globalisation. These politicians run on being nativist. But if history has taught us anything, the right wing nativists that claim to be anti-globalist and wants withdraw from international stage, are the same ones who believe that “might makes right”, and will bully smaller countries or fabricate reasons to go to war. The difference, however, is that opposition tend to be arrested unlike in liberal countries.

              Call out and provide several times the GDP of a nation in arms and soldiers are two different things. The countries in the West did not care, they did it. Some people in the West agreed with the entire rest of the world the West is fucked up and the single greatest threat to global peace, but that changes nothing since you people don’t have real democracy, just liberal democracy.

                Except supporting Ukraine is the right one out of many. The faux concern you are expressing on Ukrainians is evident of usual Kremlin narrative.

                Well, people are electing right wing populists as a reaction to neoliberal policies, so that is still democracy. Judging from your username, you must be living in a country where you only get to vote for only one party. And not following the party line will get you intimidated, arrested, or killed even. You may not be living under the rock in the past year, but you are certainly being fed with propaganda.

                  You can just say you have no idea how the Chinese government works instead of making yourself look stupid. As far as the rest of your nonsense the only difference is Ukraine is white.

                  That’s the only one.

                    You can believe whatever CCP says. No one is stopping you since your life is on the line if you disagree. At least I don’t have to worry about potential G-men knocking on the door in the middle of the night for saying the wrong thing.
