Comment on Don't eat that
Stovetop@lemmy.world 6 months agoI get that. I suppose in this case I just don’t sympathize with the “enemy of my enemy” perspective because Putin and the neo-aristocratic oligarchs who surround him are still enemies of Marxist ideology.

If we just look at Lemmygrad’s Prolewiki, they outline their stance on the Russian Federation and the Russo-Ukranian War. You can examine that as much as you want, they acknowledge that Putin is a bourgeois dictator, but also go off of Lenin’s definition of Imperialism and find that the current RF doesn’t fit it, due to their production. That doesn’t mean they justify the RF’s invasion, they outright call it out, but also try to understand the reasons the invasion happened in the first place.
They outright state that they support revolution within Russia against the Capitalist dictatorship, and showcase how the people are unhappy with the current system.
I may not agree with their overall analysis, but this is absolutely not the viewpoint of a right winger, which means they can be swayed.
