    Speaking for myself, I would consider a "pro-Russian" position to be right wing, if I felt like my position could be described that way (which I have had comrades suggest to me while I've been discussing the situation) I would consider it imperative to self-crit. GenZedong is full of memesters and is not a place I generally take seriously, I have no opinion on them.

    Whether they are actually correct is the same thing as we have to apply to any media criticism: take it with a grain of salt and review their track record, and the toughest part of all: what do they consistently avoid or leave our?

    Wholly agree comrade. To be frank, I don't think this entire situation has been approached with an adequate amount of criticism (self directed, and externally directed) by a significant portion of this site. Almost off topic from @ASBMilitary in particular, but I was hoping to see more question marks the last couple weeks than I've observed, especially since a majority of the site took a big L on the chances of an invasion happening in the first place.

      Fair enough! I don't have much of responses because I think you make great points and I don't have much to add.

        Sounds good comrade, happy we have a place to have this sort of discussion without it getting weird
