I feel a ton of sympathy for the besieged Ukrainians. But it does feel good to see the Russians give it to the US war machine after 17 months of the US funding, arming and enabling the most gruesome Israeli crimes against the occupied Pal's.

Don't normalize imperialistic ambitions as a way to appeal to fascists. Ukraine should be supported, but not because of the need to maintain the hegemony.

If you think the disinformation was directed at "them", think again

Indeed and the fucking MAGAts are sucking down the Kremlin stirred Orange Kool-Aid.

"No country in history" is a pretty bold claim. Surely Britain ceding India for example would be a counterexample, just off the top of my head.

But honestly, uh, good? I don't want the US acting as global hegemon. The power and influence wielded by the nation-state only goes to benefitting the rich and powerful. It doesn't benefit ordinary people in any way, whether domestically or abroad.

I don't know why it's assumed that heading a global empire is supposed to be a good thing, it certainly doesn't align with my values as a leftist.
