Tankie here, basically most of us are pro russia not because we like russia, but because a multi-polar world with many different types of influence is better than a singular polar world because wedon't want one bloc or alliace to have too much influence over the world, brics alliance makes one pole, and the nato/allies make another.

That makes as much sense as supporting Hitler's invasion of Poland in order to stick it to British imperialism.

Another thing is I personally believe even if Ukraine won the war, they a culturally, economically, and politcally fucked because of the war, not to mention the azov battalion.

And who is responsible for the war? Here's a hint, not the country that is being currently invaded.

I am fairly new to the community so i probably don't speak for all of them but we acknowledge some of the bad things that was done, for example Stalin's role in zionism and the creation of isnotreal

Next time you cretins seethe about being called red fascists I will quote this lovely bit of antisemitic bilge.

Just about every argument you brought up is either nonsense or genocide apologia. Please, remain in lemmygrad.

Because you are against one side the violence of the other side becomes excusable? The pain and missery of minoritys in bric country's is ok because you like other the other side less?

I get the anti-western sentiment, but it isn't an excuse to do bad things

As an anarchist I don't get the bootlicking of authoritarians, tankies and nazis are the same people, just with different flags, you can criticise the west and the bric states at the same time, one misdeed does never excuse another misdeed from the other side

You say you are new to the community, so I hope one day you maybe realise that you don't have to be a tankie to be a communist and that the priority should be human and human rights.
