International Russia formally declares the US as 'enemy'

[KOPPE]

Russian President Vladimir Putin's press secretary Dmitry Peskov has called the United States an enemy state.
His remarks came in response to a claim made by a former American intelligence officer, who was barred from travelling to Russia allegedly on instructions of the US State Department.
Russian media has reported that neither Putin nor Kremlin has ever referred to the US as an enemy of Russia. Meanwhile, Vladimir Putin has warned Western nations that he could arm other countries with weapons to attack them. This comes days after US President Joe Biden allowed Ukraine to strike inside Russia with American weapons.

meanwhile the right-wingnuts:

Oh noes! Some people wore a goofy shirt! Meanwhile, leftist wingnuts will actually move to Russia, become Russian citizens, and get the "Z" tattoo on their neck while women and children are being raped and murdered by Putin's forces.....

Oh, noes!!!!

The American left proudly stands with Russia against the US's regime that has fought socialism across the globe.

 

[Ichibanner]

At least the U.S. has a totally competent leader in Biden that believes "Putin is losing the war in Iraq".

Russia is now a capitalist oligarchy with right wing Putin at the helm.

Yes but they are siding with the CCP to establish multipolarity and to end the current neoliberal order. They are also supporting our comrades in Donbass after years of being attacked by Ukraines fascist government.

Russia isn't perfect this party was installed by the US to stop communism. No one has forgotton that. But that was a long time ago.

leftist wingnuts will actually move to Russia

Many right wing yokels believe that Trump, Putin and Xi Jinping are heroes working together to overthrow the deep state. They support the invasion of Ukraine and appear to want China to invade Taiwan.
I mean your cult leader called Putin 'genius' and 'savvy' for Ukraine invasion for fks sake.

I disagree. China's ventures in Africa and the South China Sea seem positively imperialist. Which we all know is the highest stage of capitalism.
The ccp is diametrically opposed to us power in the world and is a suppressive dictatorship, it is the worst manifestation of authoritarianism and ruthless capitalism.

Wake me up when Russia formally declares war, or has an economy larger than the state of Texas despite 5x the population and over 24x the land mass.

Jesus @KOPPE, as a neutral party you are unhinged man. Took only two posts to take a thread about Russia calling us an enemy and flip to "republicans bad". You lefties are just as mentally unwell as the far rights just on a different spectrum.

Yes they are positively imperalist. Belts and roads is perhaps the most positive imperial venture ever done.

Africa at the end of the day is looking for an alternative. China didn't turn the rest of the world against the US, the US did with neoliberalism and their gaslighting bullshit about austerity and insincere crying about human rights. The number one rule of hegemony is making people want to keep you in charge. Not lecturing people about the importance of having values they don't want. This will ultimatly be the US's undoing. They see no need to appease or appeal. They see their way of doing things which the world is sick of as superior and if people elect a govt that doesn't want that they'll coup them. China is developing countries and building them things with no strings attached. What do you expect Africa to do to tell the Chinese to go fuck themselves? Why would they do that?

The CCP right now seems to have a mentality of becoming number 1 no matter the cost. And following the fall of the USSR there was only one way to accomplish this. This will be Chinas century and they are the worlds only hope. Maybe they will let us all down but I would rather gamble on that then have the current status quo where we know what we're getting and it's awful and history will condemm us.

Everything devolves into domestic partisan shit-slinging.

This is literally just every time a spineless centrist/3rdpartisit chimes in on an issue.
You “both sides bad” people are the most spineless and idiotic people to exist. You add nothing, you stand for nothing.
I do not tolerate "Both sides bad" cucks. If your response to me calling out the hateful racists to say I'm somehow "just as bad" and that I "should try harder to meet them in the middle" you get blocked. You are not "the voice of reason", you're a spineless twit.

Sure it is. China today is where the US was in 1924. The future is theirs. Theres a certain sort that are in denial about this but frankly the entire political spectrum knows China being a superpower is inevitable.

Why the U.S. Economy Is Surging, as China's Stumbles

Gone are the days when it was an established fact that China would one day surpass the U.S., economically and geopolitically.

time.com

The view that China was the emerging geopolitical power, with developing nations tucked under its wings, is looking similarly shaky. It is now unclear whether China’s GDP will ever surpass the U.S. and nations around the world are rethinking their ties to Beijing and the debt trap that is the Belt and Road Initiative.

Meanwhile, China’s population growth is done. Chinese entrepreneurs are leaving the country. Optimism is dimming among Chinese youth. The Chinese stock market is tanking. Foreign direct investment is in freefall, as global business seeks alternatives to the “world’s factory” that don’t come with the same geopolitical risk, and Big State political meddling.

The economic indicators are so bad that Beijing is pulling many of them from public view. As for the United States, it is chugging along as the world’s fastest-growing and most dynamic economy. Inflation is down while jobs, real wages, and productivity are going up.
