I hate how “anti-war” has been hijacked by these people to mean, let imperialist countries invade whoever they want with no consequences. (in the case of tankies, any imperialist country that isn’t in NATO).

You're very naive to think the US war machine is "helping a people in need". Even Boris Johnson admitted this is a proxy war. They're sending ukrainians to die just to mess with Russia. They have no chance of winning anything.
Do you think we have no free will here in Ukraine or something? It's so easy for you to dehumanize us as some puppets who have no agency and are "sent", "made", blah blah blah. Fuck off.
I think our free will is being manipulated by the media, manufacturing consent. This goes for people in Ukraine, Europe, the US, Russia, everywhere.
There are some good Youtube videos on the subject if you're interested.
I think you would find that bombs being dropped at night on your city, country, your friends and loved ones, schools, theatres ans hospitals, by a "brotherly nation", whose leader speaks a lot about your country being fake, over the pretence of fighting some "nazis" apparently, would do much more to directly influence your free will than Youtube.
