I don’t need to tell you how closely the above points align with Russian and Chinese state propaganda and what complete fabrications they are.
They aren’t really ‘anti-war’ or pro human rights, just anti-West. The fact that they have appropriated such a platform is a stunning feat of propaganda. These are the tankies of the 21st century.
Bunch of west hating, radical left toss pots. It’s all NATO, the West are evil,oh go forth and multiply
Finally, a post that acknowledges that the invasion is a reaction to NATO expansion.
NATO isn’t expanding
Countries are joining nato to protect themselves against Russia
Russia is the aggressor here
And this just shows the true coloured of the hard left movement, they are anti-west, that’s all they are
Have they managed to figure out where the Russian embassy in London is yet?
They know the area at least, it’s the other end of the street from the Israeli embassy.
I’m neither in favour of Russian imperialism or NATO continuing to expand eastwards.
Russian aggression = NATO expansion = Russian aggression = NATO expansion = Russian aggression = NATO expansion.
During the Cold War there was the non-aligned movement. We need more of that, or at least something in the same vein as Ireland, Sweden, Finland, and Austria.

>Stand up to the new McCarthyism.
>There is an attempt to silence the Western left from speaking up against the war-mongering and aggression of the US and NATO.
>30 years of NATO expansionism and the US-backed coup in Ukraine in 2014 are the real causes of today’s crisis.

Cheeky designer, [sneaking Jesus](https://imgur.com/cpt7do9) into the crowd. Until a [Thomas fingers a rib cage,](https://www.english.op.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/jesusthomasdoubt-300×223-1.jpg) no one can claim him.
No to nato expansion is pro-Russia propaganda.
