I had a discussion with @Cowbee@lemmy.ml recently where they insisted that Anarchists on Hexbear accept Lenin's analysis of Imperialism and therefore all support "Actual Existing Socialist" states such as Cuba, USSR and I guess North Korea as well.
In fact, they argued it's the reason most anarchists of Hexbear don't like to discuss anarchism away from hexbear, explicitly because outside anarchists do not support "AES".
So I'm curious to see what your thoughts are on this. If you're an anarchist who supports "AES" how do you square this support with the conflict these states have with anarchist theory on hierarchy?
Hexbear doesn't care about the answer to that question. They support modern-day Russia which doesn't have any pretense of socialism. Their stance is first and foremost anti-American. Anything else is window dressing.
Using anything about America to justify Russia's war of aggression in Ukraine is an obvious attempt to rationalise their support for something indefensible. The only involvement America has in this particular war is helping the victim of an invasion defend themselves.
