Putin Stasi card from his time as an apparent Stasi-KGB liaison officer in East Germany.

If Ukraine were a proxy war with the Ukrainian government representing NATO or the USA, then, by definition, it supposes that NATO/the US is fighting a war with a power that lies behind Russia. Who would that be? China? SCO (Shanghai Cooperation Organisation)? Putin’s friend Klaus Schwab and the World Economic Forum (WEF)?

If it’s simply Russia then, by definition, it’s not a proxy war. Russia’s fighting directly, and Russia’s not a small country.

Calling Ukrainian self-defense a “proxy war” is a horrible insult to a people fighting so valiantly for their freedom.

The Kremlin and the expected culprits (aka its propaganda proxies in the media) are pushing this absurd “proxy war” party line.

“proxy war noun [ C ]
US /ˈprɑːk.si ˌwɔːr/ UK /ˈprɒk.si ˌwɔːr/
a war fought between groups or smaller countries that each represent the interests of other larger powers, and may have help and support from these:
The new nuclear superpowers fought their first proxy war for global supremacy in the Asian heartland of Korea.”https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/proxy-war

https://www.thefreedictionary.com/proxies

And, for that matter, is it really a war? Russia is invading Ukraine and Ukraine is acting in self-defense. While it’s not a “special operation”, it’s an invasion by Russia and self-defense by Ukraine. Is that a war?

We’ve established that unless there is someone hiding behind Russia, it’s not a proxy war, because that takes two proxies. But is it even a war? https://www.britannica.com/topic/war

If it doesn’t have two proxies and isn’t a war, then it’s NOT a proxy war, no matter what idiocy the Kremlin and its many proxies may spout.

As we’ve already noted elsewhere, France supported the American Revolution, at least in part, to get vengeance against the UK for the Seven Years War. It was in the aftermath of this war that the French were deported from Acadia- some of whom ended up in what is now the state of Louisiana.

Of course, those complaining about the west supporting Ukraine, object to the existence of the USA. Many are apparently too lazy to learn Russian. It’s easy to immigrate to Russia if people aren’t too lazy to learn Russian. It’s too bad that the west is stuck with so many Russophiles who are too lazy to learn Russian and move to their beloved Russia. If they knew the language would they be so madly in love with Russia? Language and culture are intertwined. Is authoritarianism embedded in the Russian language?

Putin-Russia blame the collapse of their flop of a centralized state “communist” system on the west. It’s too painful for all of the old KGB-Siloviki to admit that they wasted so much of their lives on the wrong thing, and, so, they’ve wasted even more of their lives seeking vengeance.

Russia went from oppressive Tsars with poor serfs to oppressive “communism” to rich oligarchs fighting it out, while the average person was impoverished, to Putin’s violent and increasingly despotic state. Russia’s always been a despotic state.

“silovik (plural siloviks or siloviki)
1. (politics) A Russian politician from the old security or military services, often the KGB, FSB, and military officers or other security services who came into power during the 1990s or 2000s. siloviki (plural) the security services which make up one wing of the Russian government.
siloviki (plural) security-service personnel of any country or nationality.” https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/silovik
