Also why are there two republics and not one? And was/is there really genocide in Donbas? I know about the 2014 fascist led coup by NATO aligned neo nazis and all that, but I dont really understand about the situatoin in east Ukraine, except that they are mostly russian speaking and have pro russian sentiments (which the west ukrainians dont like).

Edit: Also what exactly is Minsk II, why do people say its dead and who broke it and why?

      I think it’s more regional imperialism than the usual suspects and their global colonial imperialism - I think it’s also a lot more complex because the USSR existed - would it be imperialism if Xi died, and his successor dismantled China in 2023, and then in 2046 there was a coup in Tibet which installed a fascist government, while Chinese people near Tibet also rebelled against the government, and the Chinese successor state rolled into those disputed territories?

      Not a perfect analogy, but indicates some of the complexity. I think the bottom line is to look at development and harm to residents and then assess actions based on that, if you want to try to somehow rank things on a moral worthiness scale.
