    Defence is when you defend your country against an invader.

      Correct, and I strongly support our Ukrainian comrades in the DPR and LPR in their resistance against the fascist coup government.

        I was more thinking when Russia invaded and tried to encircle Kyiv and whatnot. But yeah, when you fight against an attacker, it’s defence. It’s a general term rather than a value position.

        Yeah, the famous fascists that are actively working hard to join the EU, which we’ve seen so clearly the past decade just loves having fascist states in its ranks. You know, the fascist government that had an actual election as late as 2019 where southern and eastern regions largely voted for the person that won.

        Notice how there was actually a change of power in that election - a known hallmark of fascist states.

          They outlawed starting a conversation in Russian. It was criminal for a business not first say something in Ukrainian. Like, imagine if Arizona tried to pass a law that criminalized conducting business in Spanish.

          It’s too bad that actor who used to play president on TV and had zero actual political experience got steamrolled by the fascists once he got in office.

            When did he get steamrolled? When he ensured that corrupt people were sentenced by a court before being jailed, or when he applied to join the famously pro-fascist EU?
