I strongly disagree with this article. The only rationale socialist approach to this conflict is NO WAR, BUT CLASS WAR.

Supporting the imperialist US it's a nonsense. Supporting Russia (imperialist or not) is opportunist, the fact that it's confronting the US in this proxy war it's not enough reason to support it, at least in my opinion. Also, the direct consequences of this war are:

  1. A huge increase of military expenditure of the US block (NATO) and a lot of that money will be transferred from the Imperial periphery (non US NATO countries) to the core, i.e.: to the US military industry.
  2. Increased racism, fascism, chauvinism, and militarism in European countries (also Russia).

The only positive is that the BRICs and non-alienated countries have not supported the Western imperialist narrative. But being able to know this is not worth a war.
