Liberals always try to force leftists to 'pledge allegiance' to hyperfocused truisms that they take in isolation and try to make determinative of the entire subject. parenti

I'll bite. Yes. Russia invaded. No. Russia did not start a war with Ukraine. They joined an existing war with Ukraine in progress.

This is what no historical materialism does to a mfer.

Crimea also voted on a referendum.

If you somehow uphold US/imperialist approved votes over any other countries' idk what to tell you.
