Generally they already are a part of the Russian Federation if they want to be.

That doesn’t really hold water when the Venezuelan government has been reacting extremely unified and in opposition to imperialism, even Venezuelan opposition.

It’s an accurate descriptor of die-hard liberalism.

I’m not a mod.

Fastest way is for Kiev to cede the 4 oblasts that already want to be a part of the Russian Federation anyways, and NATO neutrality.

No? Trump is doing the most Statesian things possible, he isn’t a Russian plant.

The global south. NATO is the millitary alliance of the world’s imperialist powers, a destruction of millitary unity among imperialists would severely weaken imperialism. NATO is “defensive” in the same way the Iron Dome is, it gives imperialist countries free reign to treat the world like something to be looted and plundered without fear of genuine blowback.

Would be one of the most internationally positive outcomes of 2026 if NATO dissolves.

It was ambiguous enough that it looked like those were your expressed views, check the modlog.

Nothing substantial so far, it’s drenched in consent manufacturing.

Maduro is the democratically elected president of Venezuela. With 51% of the vote, compared to his opposition gaining 43%, the US Empire has tried to rely on manufacturing false evidence against Maduro so their compradors can gain power. Venezuelans didn’t believe it, though, so the empire was forced to engage by force, bombing hospitals and murdering dozens of civilians in the process.

These lies undermining Maduro are the same claiming there is no genocide in Palestine, that socialism is scary and evil, that Trump won 2020, that Saddam had WMD. These lies are undermining a country that nationalized their oil industry, requiring foreign capital to only have a minority stake. For this sin of keeping Venezuelan wealth for Venezuelans, the empire kidnapped him.

Venezuelans are not stupid, though, nor are they willing to be colonized. The millitary and working classes both are aligned with the Bolivarian revolution. When the empire tries to establish a comprador regime, they will fail.

Viva Venezuela! Viva Maduro!

Incorrect, Maduro was democratically elected and supported by the Venezuelan working classes due to continuing the legacy of Hugo Chavez.

This is bullshit, actually. Maduro got 51%, his opposition 43%. You’re falling for the same WMD story the empire used to bomb Iraq.

Yes, that’s correct, that’s what’s supposed to happen and is what Venezuelans want.

Or nukes. The US hasn’t touched the DPRK, Russia, or China directly because of that.

The US Empire is just running kangaroo courts.

How surprising /s

I use my smartphone for notes, and an eReader for text.

Liberals are those who subscribe to liberalism, an ideology generally supportive of the individual over the collective and the unrestricted freedom of capital. Liberalism does include MAGA, broadly. The Statesian “left,” ie the DNC, ultimately supports the very system that depends on this naked imperialism to keep going, despite whatever moral aversion they may have towards it.

They’re trying her for the same already bogus “crimes.”
