    The primary contradiction globally today is the U.S. (and her coalition’s) repression of any movement around the world that might be liberatory or allow alternative development outside of the U.S. dominated global capitalist financial order.

    Russia is itself a capitalist state since the USSR was illegally dissolved at the hands of U.S. puppets like Yeltsin, you’re right about that. But the U.S’s own intransigence in refusing to let Russia into the club and continuing to antagonize and try to cannibalize Russia, they’re forced into a position of opposing the U.S. empire directly.

    So it’s not Russia in itself with all of its flaws and repression that we are voicing support for, it’s the role that Russia can and is playing in opposing US global imperialism. If they deal a strategic defeat to the empire, it’s a win for oppressed people around the world.
