Russia and Ukraine

[The Architect Of Fate]

I think this is supposed to be an insult to me, though I'm not sure.

It's not an insult.It's a fact. If you are insulted by it that's your problem 

 As I mentioned before, anyone who doesn't believe that America is pure and good is accused of being some kind of apologist for some other evil thing.

And this is a strawman. I do not believe nor have ever believed America is pure and its goodness is only in contrast to greater evils like Putin's  Russia so no. And you are an apologist but not because you don't think America is pure and good but because you think Putin's Russia is in any way good or worst you engage in whataboutism and bothsidism that would make Lenin blush. So no that is why you are an apologist for evil.

It has no relevance to anything I've said. I have never said anything in praise of Marxism-Leninism or countries which operate on those principles. (I have praised China, but this has a kind of hybrid state capitalist system, nothing like Leninism.) The fact that I oppose the authoritarian tendencies of the US must be misconstrued as something else.

Most tankies don't talk about Marxism anymore. They engage in apologetics for any two-bit despot who has an issue with America and both create and amplify those regimes talking points to run cover for their atrocities. And you don't stand against authoritarianism you simply use it as a talking point to lie for actual authoritarians ....
