      Women, children, infants, the elderly, the sick, and even fellow comrades; all sent to march to their deaths and be sacrificed by a decadent and fascist government. There is no beauty in war.

      Beautiful up until I remember that there are people in those darkened and freezing buildings. And that a fair number of them won’t survive this conflict at all. And that scores more will be permanently scarred by it.

        Didn’t all of them like support the current government for years after participating in 2014 coup while doing nothing about and cheering on Donbas genocide and also destruction of Crimean bridge recently? More than 14 thousand people died for 8 years including little children and elderly, children spend their lives in basements and in fear of being blown up by the bombs of the nazis they supported and didn’t give a shit about.

          Scott Ritter. Is that you? Sir… You are correct and right. But right now, we are all in Lot mode and know that a scant few in that city dont deserve this and are either too young to understand or are actually righteous. Otherwise… Yeah. I get you, homie.

            Yes I know there are a few, but most of these people supported everything that happened to Donbas and to many people they hate and consider ‘‘subhuman’’ including people who speak Russian, Roma, Jews, communists, Middle Eastern migrants etc, wanted to I quote ‘‘nuke Russia, Iran, Syria and every country that supports Russia’’ which I saw multiple times in comments.

              I aint gonna front resistance to your anger. Im just as furious. You are correct. At best, those who disagreed kept their mouths shut and went into hiding. No amount of martyrs were gonna change the inertia of this god forsaken war. I would have stayed silent as well to live.

              Let us hope this war ends in the winter. 😔

      This is not something to be enjoyed. First of all, those who truly are responsible for the war, the government, and its crimes sit - very much alive - in comfortable armchairs in a warm palace in London or Washington, and even if they actually froze to death in Kiev, this is still not the way these criminals ought to die. On the contrary, if Nazis, capitalists, arms manufacturers and dealers, instigators, warlords, wanton murderers, if the scum of the entire world froze to death in this city, then this would make it impossible for anyone to put them on trial and hold them accountable for their crimes. Of course it would be convenient for us if they could do everyone a favour and die, but it is absurd to conceive of what happens to them during their exposure to the elements as a just punishment, let alone “beauty”, because such a death is merely accidental, instead of being mandated in the authority of the peoples of the world.

        If we’re to acknowledge that Ukraine is a fascist vassal state of imperialism then it should be acknowledged that the general civilian populace has very little to no active say in their government or the fascists who have enjoyed elevation and endorsement.

        Sure, a significant portion of the population likely supports it, else it wouldnt be the problem it is. But fascist regimes don’t need a majority of the population to take a country hostage. Historically, it needs around 20%-30% of the populations support (Germany in 32’ the Nazis only has about 30% popular support. Trumpism in the US consistently enjoys about 35%. Girlboss Mussolini was recently elected with only 26% support.)

        Communists shouln’t cheer for the suffering of the working-class. In Ukraine the working class is being punished from all angles.
