> Russia's trying to take over a country in imperial conquest, by their own words,
> They're, right now, trying to expand their own territory by taking over other countries.

Citation please. Neocon/neolib accusations dont count...original sources only. From what it looks like, Russia is protecting Russian speaking people from a group of Nazis which performed a coup against a democraticly elected government in 2014. This cohort which the US arms violently oppressed these Russian speaking people over the last decade. It's not like the Ukranian people are benefiting from the conflict either. There have been opportunities for a peace treaty but were rejected at the behest of western interests.

I would rather there be a peace treaty, but as this war drags on, the terms will become tougher & more wealth will flow from the US people to the billionaire managerial class...and more lives will be lost. Classic imperial indifference to the people...

> and you call America not the imperialist?

I was born & raised in Hawaii. The kingdom of Hawaii from was illegally stolen from the soverign Kingdom of Hawaii led by Queen Liliuokalani in a coup backed by US business interests & enforced by the US Marines. The US military has bases & have defiled sacred land with bombings & pollution. The native Americans, South American countries, African countries, Middle Eastern countries, European countries, & Asian countries have felt the wrath of US imperialism. Yes, the US has practiced imperialism for over a century.

> The "global south" is not trying to buddy up with Russia

Many in the global south see Russia as a liberator from the dominant & abusive hegemon that pax Americana has become. Theres no permanent alliances, only permanent interests. So if you want America & western nations to have more influence than Russia or China, start acting in ways that benefit these other countries & their people. Coercision will only get you so far. If there are better alternatives to coercision, the better alternatives will be taken. Your cohort can't even bring happiness to the people in America. The thing we dont need is looking abroad for monsters to slay.

> The people who state this after the stuff you stated, aren't actually who they say they are.

Ok buddy. You sound like you drank some funky imperial kool aid. My name is in my handle. You can look me up if you want. We can do much better than what is happening right now. You implying I'm not who I say I am is you denying the fact that people don't agree with the insanity that you peddle & will exercise their free speech to say so. I have heard the same tired imperialist, racist, divisive arguments that come from your camp & it just does not make any sense other than to support world domination for the billionaire managerial class. No thank you. Hard pass. The blood, sweat, tears, & innovations of our ancestors are squandered by the ruthlessness, arrogance, corruption, & incompetence of the self-serving "leadership" of the billionaire managerial class.

Your cohort would be better to focus on making the lives of the people in America & the world better through peaceful means...promoting the freedom, liberty, & prosperity of all. The propaganda & doubling down on lies is not working anymore. Censorship or tech will not change what has already been seen. The genie is already out of the bottle. Your cohort is better of repenting for multitude of sins because the mark has been missed.
