  • blame Russia for engadging in activities that warrants sanctioning

    But why though? Russia had just observed 20 years of invasion of Afghanistan by the USA, with absolutely no divestment and no sanction as a result. So the logical conclusion should be that invasion doesn’t warrant sanctioning. Why would Russia be a special case? If everyone can invade everyone, it would make sense that Russia understands that it also applies to them.

















  • I don’t have communist friends in the Philippines, so I don’t have the insights that you got, most of what I know about them is from the documentaries “Inside the New People’s Army” and “Revolution Selfie”, which might present a idealised view of their revolution. But I know that their split with PKP was rather dirty, and the bombing Plaza Miranda was a terrible accelerationist move.

    Other than their support to the rural population, I appreciate their effort to try to preserve the environment from companies known to disregard it by sabotaging their operations, and also their support for LGBT rights.

    I’m open to hearing more about the criticism Filipino communists have towards them.
