Ukraine after 90 days of war
The Western narrative that Russia is facing defeat at the hands of the Ukrainian military is falling apart.

The Depravity of the Armchair Communists
The inter-imperialist camp, as it has been called, has dedicated itself to painting the Ukraine conflict strictly in terms of inter-imperialist struggle. In their dedication to this interpretation, they have committed to a series of surprisingly extravagant claims, some of which I intend to gather here and hold up to the light. However, it is this camp’s total… Continue reading
