Yes, when they’re actually fighting for their own future instead of which bourgeoisie faction will exploit them. Revolutionary and anti-colonial wars tend to be extremely popular with the populace.

Do you think average Ukrainians wanted to be drafted to fight America’s war?
Do I think it is better for a nation or a people to be freed from being ruled by a dictator
Except the US has no interest in freeing the people, hence why we give most dictators the weapons they use to keep their people down. We have interest in their resources and labor being cheap, which dictates our foreign policy.
The US doesn’t want a Ukraine that serves the needs of the people, we want a Ukraine with low wages, no social programs, whose assets and resources are owned by western billionaires, and whose people can be sacrificed to further imperialist goals.
You can look at any other country we’ve “freed” in the last 50 years for comparison.
The prisoner appears to be hooked up to mains power in the high res version of that photo.
Lets examine the evidence of history:
Do you think the people of Palestine are better off because of the US’s actions? Do you think the people of Syria are better off because of the US’s actions? Do you think the people of Libya are better off because of the US’s actions? Do you think the people of Yemen are better off because of the US’s actions? Do you think the people of Somalia are better off because of the US’s actions? Do you think the people of Afghanistan are better off because of the US’s actions? Do you think the people of Iraq are better off because of the US’s actions?
And that’s just in the last decade, and I know I missed a few. Do you really think Lucy is going to let Charlie Brown kick the football this time?
America is not acting to help the people of Ukraine, we supported the right-wing throughout the coup so we could have a hostile state on Russia’s border so the vultures can eat their fill as both countries are bled dry. Hence why Ukraine was required to sell off state assets to foreigners for pennies on the dollar, accept massive loans, give up mineral rights, lower the draft age, etc. Russia aren’t the good guys, but the US’s actions have resulted in a scenario infinitely worse for the Ukrainian people.
So is there any particular military history in the last 50 years you want to talk about? The invasion of Panama? Granada? Bombing Yugoslavia? Targeting Iraq’s infrastructure during the gulf war, then imposing sanctions estimated to have caused a million excess deaths, mostly of children? Bombing a pharmaceutical plant in Sudan? Iraq II? Arming the groups that would become ISIS and Al Nusra?
The kicker? They’re German.
The US is not NATO
It kinda is tho. It was set up by the US to counter the Warsaw pact and prey upon neutral countries, as Blinken put it “If you’re not at the table, you’re on the menu”. This is evidenced by every single NATO action being in the US’s interest.
Especially now with Trump in daddy Putins pocket.
As funny as it would be for Trump to dismantle NATO, his only issue with it is that it doesn’t do enough imperialism.
In OP are images of what NATO, an organization that has never fought a defensive war in its entire existence, calls defense.
The first picture is an apartment block getting leveled.
The third is a child who managed to tear her clothes off after the US dropped napalm on them as they fled their village, but was burnt badly enough she had to spend 14 months in the hospital. She was one of the lucky ones.
The fourth is the second atomic bomb the US dropped on a civilian population.
From what perspective is murdering hundreds (hundreds of thousands in the case of Nagasaki) of civilians just trying to live their lives on the other side of the planet acts of self-defense?
Defense, in the same way the pictures in OP were defense.
saw people in the area speaking Arabic.
So obviously this means we need to invade Iran. And Canada, that Jagmeet Singh looks pretty Muslim.
Do you understand that you are cheering for the total destruction of an island with millions of people?
I’d explain the history and actual politics, and why it’s hilarious to refer to the PRC as fascist in comparison to the RoC, but none of that shit matters next to how gross it is to call for the deaths of foreigners from half way around the world.
The DPP is fighting for their constituents (to be used as cannon fodder by America)
The KMT isn’t great, but status quo is infinitely better than having America turn your country into another Ukraine or Afghanistan.
Lets test that: 🧀

Let us know if you end up doing something like this, I’m sure I’m not the only one who would be interested in how it turns out.
Do you remember the title of that video? Even if it’s got concrete floors and walls you’re not allowed to cut, I’m surprised if you can’t improve it enough to sell for more than 4K.
They saw “Look at all the cool technology capitalism is going to bring us!” instead of “Holy shit capitalism will use this amazing technology to make everything worse”.
Back in like 2016, a huge part of the grift was that Tesla was a tech company and their system would get smarter forever as it got more data.
Using an expensive sensor that can just detect objects instead of relying on computer vision and machine learning is kinda like an admission of failure.
The reason you aren’t aware of dissent is that Zelenskyy banned rival parties, took control of media outlets, and passed a law that makes opposing the war or supporting any territorial concessions imprisonable offense, which has been used against political activists.
To be clear, Russia does the same things. The point isn’t to support the Russian or Ukrainian government, only that the US’s actions are opposed to the interests of the Ukrainian people.
