Nova Kahkovka Dam has been blown up
A major dam and hydro-electric power plant in Russian-occupied southern Ukraine suffered a collapse early Tuesday, prompting mass evacuations and fears for large-scale devastation as Ukraine accused Moscow’s forces of committing an act of “ecocide.”

Is there a particular reason why many of y'all here seem to support Russia in this conflict? It seems to me that Russia are the aggressors, and I kind of understand why Russia invaded Ukraine (strategic location and reduce their border with NATO), but isn't it still the case that Ukrainian and Russian citizens shouldn't have to suffer and be annexed to Russia? I'm asking this question in good faith, I'm still a baby socialist.

It's less that many of us are espousing support for Russia, but rather opposition to the propaganda and for-profit warmongering by the West that has been born from the conflict. There was an excellent post earlier today that provided a great take on how to view the war through a historical lens - I have my own disagreements with some of OP's points in that thread, but luckily the comments there cover those disagreements pretty well from a good leftist perspective as well.
EDIT: wait lol I see you already commented there, nevermind
