The outcry spread quickly across the Western world: Donald Trump dared say Ukraine started the war.
There is no simple blame to be laid on an entire country. It makes no sense to blame “ukraine” or “russia”. But it’s obvious that certain people are largely responsible. It’s quite clear that Putin and his pals ordered an invasion for colonial reasons. Now they got alt-imperialists writing pages and pages trying to flip the script. Pathetic. It’s not some geo-political mystery. It’s quite obvious whom to blame.
fwiw: Fuck USAian politicians too. Empire is trash regardless of the nationalist branding.
