It’s not vulgar materialism. At this stage in history Russia has no other option than alliance with the developing world, led by China. With China comes industrialization and socialization of labor which will necessarily invoke class struggle in the countries it develops with. Any nation that seeks to develop its productive forces is faced with Finance Imperialism which seeks to permanently freeze the development of all countries. Can development opposed to Finance Imperialism develop itself into monopoly Imperialism? This is what I doubt, and which obviously has not occurred yet.
The Russian bourgeoisie, the Oligarchs, are opposed to the war. The United Russia party was pushed towards intervention from the bottom up.
Further, you said you do not deny that the US is trying to colonize Russia, but then you say Russia’s actions aren’t anti-Colonial. How does this make sense? Serious question, looking at the Russian intervention in Syria, do you think that was not anti-Colonial? Do you think Syria isn’t under threat of colonization by the US? Is fighting against that attempt not anti-Colonialism?
