@skykiss oh nice, can we talk about the Western Bloc invading African nations for the last 400 years now?

@Whippet Which exactly of the countries in that list of Russian victims were invading African nations for 400 years?

@Jarek I have no clue what that means, so I’m not going to engage with you.

@Whippet I don't know if you consider any of the mentioned countries a “western block” but none of them had anything to do with the exploitation of Africa. The tragedy of the African nations doesn't make the tragedy of the Russian/Soviet imperialism any lesser. They both deserve attention, as victims of different forms of imperialism.
