Would you say that you’re wearing imperialist clothes then for the tactical benefit, like a soldier on a secret mission disguised as the enemy?
Everyone understands Russia is correct to invade because NATO can’t be a neighbor, and that NATO is correct to “take” Ukraine because it’s possible and useful in keeping Russia in check. The problem is that this is imperialist logic. The common sense that runs the world of zero sum capitalists. The “think of the shareholders” of geopolitics.
What action do you suggest for a state when the most prolific invader in the world subjugates nearby countries and starts amassing military personnel and equipment on its border or otherwise in position to attack it?
Imperialism isn’t just “when a country invades another country” it is an actual mode of capitalism wherein capital, in the need to extract as much wealth as possible, is driven to subjugate other nations. That’s not why Russia invaded and you’re not seeing those processes occur now - Or at least not on the russian side. Do you know who has signed extortionate deals with Ukraine to extract its natural resources for pennies on the dollar? That’s right, the west!
