Things dont have immediate results. Do I think it is better for a nation or a people to be freed from being ruled by a dictator? Yes. Can it take generations before another stable government, more suitable to serve the needs of the people, can be constructed and ascend to power? Yes. It varies from place to place, culture to culture, and people to people. Yes I think their future peoples will be better off.
Do I think it is better for a nation or a people to be freed from being ruled by a dictator
Except the US has no interest in freeing the people, hence why we give most dictators the weapons they use to keep their people down. We have interest in their resources and labor being cheap, which dictates our foreign policy.
The US doesn’t want a Ukraine that serves the needs of the people, we want a Ukraine with low wages, no social programs, whose assets and resources are owned by western billionaires, and whose people can be sacrificed to further imperialist goals.
You can look at any other country we’ve “freed” in the last 50 years for comparison.
We gave Ukraine 200 billion dollars in weapons, money, and military training. That isnt a gift. That is how that works and always has throughout history. Now I’m not saying they owe us everything but there is a debt there that should be repaid.
Yes, when they’re actually fighting for their own future instead of which bourgeoisie faction will exploit them. Revolutionary and anti-colonial wars tend to be extremely popular with the populace.

Do you think average Ukrainians wanted to be drafted to fight America’s war?
Do you think the average citizen of any country wants to fight any war?
Yes, when they’re actually fighting for their own future instead of which bourgeoisie faction will exploit them. Revolutionary and anti-colonial wars tend to be extremely popular with the populace.
The war is popular and well supported by the Ukrainians, as far as I am aware.
