I’m not a Putista, I believe in America first which means the Ukraine doesn’t mean a 5hit to me and I have to burst the bubbles of the fans of Forever War.

Meanwhile Putinistas here post articles from the Communist Party USA and the Communist Party of Great Britain.

BS. Nobody’s posting Communist Party crap, except those parroting the mockingbird media. Let’s talk about how our great grandchildren are going to pay for Biden/Obama’s war, shall we?

Must feel great knowing you have Roger Waters, formerly of Pink Floyd, and Noam Chomsky on your side. Two notorious Jew-haters, who never found any cause too leftist or communist to not lend it their support. Both demanding that Ukraine roll over and accept enslavement by russia. Excellent fellow-travelers for you.

You might not know it, but “Morning Star” is a paper of British communist party and “Working Families Gazette” (or something) is a paper of CPUSA.

Both of these are being posted and the first even frequently. I suspect because the audience doesn’t know Morning Star is communist.

Here is the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) campaign page where they urge their supporters to contact their congresscritter and demand NO WEAPONS TO UKRAINE - https://international.dsausa.org/ukraine/

That’s who you’re siding with.

No, I side with America and OUR need to defeat communism HERE!

(Note: I also don’t agree with fomenting Revolutions, overthrowing democracies, and starting nuclear wars.)

The author Anne Applebaum is a pretty decent person.

Indeed...just last week Applebaum wrote a rousing defense of President Biden's Philadelphia speech. You should all read what else she has to say about Trump and the MAGA movement, not to mention Poland's Law and Justice Party

How does it feel to support Obama, Biden, George Soros, Klaus Schwab, and the NWO? Yes, I know…overthrowing democracies, passing LGBTQI LEGISLATION, and picking fights with nuclear powers is important, but can’t you at least own your allegiance to Obama?

I clicked on what you said was the Atlantic link and it took me to MSM instead.

I wish you guys would quit promoting MSM.

Which says The Atlantic at the top, meaning the story came from there.

The link should take us to the source, yahoo and MSM are getting every click we make, not to mention we don’t actually visit the actual publication that we were looking for.

Applebaum wrote some good books on communism and the Soviet Union. Unfortunately she is otherwise a western liberal, and has also viciously attacked Polish nationalists from the Law and Justice (PiS) coalition. She is pro-EU in its pushing of cultural and social controls (including being pro-immigration).

But on the matter of Russia she is entirely on the same page as the Polish conservatives. Its interesting that the last election map shows that the closer to Russia the constituency, the more conservative (PiS) the vote. The Russian threat is the great uniter in Poland.

I like Poland and I think both of the two big parties there are generally good. Only some smaller parties are scum or idiots there.

Many Jews have their roots in the old Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. They went there because it was the most tolerant place in Europe in its day. Yet, they are extremely hostile to Polish nationalism, including Catholicism.

However, I’m certain the 10,000 communists will patiently listen to your objections and allay your fears. /s

This was directed at me, or was it intended for someone else?

Many of them are more like computer operators, some with systems admin knowledge. They can operate drones, anti-tank weapons and a few other tasks.
