In the end it is good that these interests align, I am just saying it is a mistake to think that Russia is motivated by ethnic cleansing itself.

I agree. But it is a fact that the underlying strategic interests do align with the humanitarian imperative in this case.

This is important because the humanitarian argument is a better and more persuasive argument to make to liberals than the geostrategic argument.

So we defend it against liberal chauvinist bullshiy and attempts to take blame away from the imperialists, but also amongst ourselves must understand the extent to which it directly opposes our projects, interests, and comrades.

Of course. Hence critical support.
