Ukraine has launched a “large-scale” drone attack against Russian military bombers in Siberia, striking more than 40 warplanes thousands of kilometres from its own territory, a security official said.
The claims could not be independently verified. But if confirmed, the attacks would mark Ukraine’s most damaging drone strike of the war to date, amid an escalation in cross-border incursions before planned peace talks in Istanbul on Monday.
“Ukrainian security services are carrying out a large-scale special operation aimed at destroying enemy bombers far from the front, in Russia,” the official was quoted by Agence France-Presse as saying, adding a fire had broken out at the targeted Belaya airbase.
Putin’s Russia is not fascist in what sense?
It’s not fascist in any sense. Perhaps try defining what it is you think fascism actually is.
The inequality in Russia is absurd. After the fall of the Soviet Union, it the country has clearly become the textbook capitalist country in the world. Tell me, what are the great left wing achievements it has made? Putin on a horse?
Textbook capitalist does not make it fascist. We wouldn’t need “fascist” if that was the case.
So you are saying that there is a fine line between fascism and capitalism, yes? What would that line be? And why would we chose capitalism over fascism?
Westoids and their obsession with calling everyone and their mother a fascist will never not be funny.
99% of the planet is capitalist, so 99% of the world is fascist?
Why don’t you ever call European countries fascist?
To be fair, 99% is a huge overestimation when the largest economy by PPP, the PRC, is Socialist.
China is working towards socialism; they’re still capitalist as of now
China is working towards higher stages of Socialism, they have been Socialist since 1949. The large firms and key industries in China are firmly in the public sector, and as the medium firms grow the CPC exerts more control and gradually folds them into the public sector. They aren’t Communist yet, but by Marxist understanding they have been Socialist for a long time.
There is no line between fascism and capitalism: all fascisms are capitalist, but not all capitalisms are fascist.
Sure, but capitalism with a Fuehrer that has a lifelong seat at the head of government and portrays himself in Riefenstahl like images surely qualifies as fascism, no?
