            You’re the one that said “Was that before or after they invaded Afghanistan” you fucking dipshit. So explain your thought process instead of going “nuh uh, you” like a performing circus seal arfing for treats

                They were there at the request of the legitimate government!

                Fuck, declassified documents revealed that they didn’t even want to assist the Afghani government. They were forced to respond to the US-backed terrorists that were destroying the country and threatening to establish a hostile government.

                Learn literally anything.

                You tell me since this entire chain of comments is dedicated to your expertise of “Was that before or after they invaded Afghanistan”

                Either start expounding on the subject or get expunged for knowing nothing on the subject but squawking pre-programed talking points like a tickle-me elmo doll

                  Lol, you’re really mad at me for pointing out the obvious contradiction between calling the USSR peaceful and their imperialist behavior.

                  Expunge me! Straight to the gulag!

                  (Edit) Hello from the gulag! I’d respond to the other comments, but you cowards banned me. For the record, the USSR openly murdered the DPRA’s head of state and then installed a puppet. Such peace.

                  (Edit 2) Tell me more about the self defense of colonized people! Reactionary ideologues simping for imperialist autocratic regimes is my favorite thing to shit on.

                    Were you under the impression your entire life that the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan to fight the Afghan government and that America was giving weapons to the Afghan government?

                    Soviets entered Afghanistan to assist the Afghan government, their ally, who correctly deduced that the terrorists in their country were being supported by the CIA.

                    Confused as ever, the stranded liberal is confronted with things that shatter its perceptions of reality. As a reflex, it employs its natural survival mechanism, the playground antics.

                    Great job reading the Wikipedia page right before your edit loser like the DRA’s head of state is a revelation instead of the butt of the joke everywhere from here to some communist alcoholic’s podcast with 13 listeners.

                    Still waiting for you to lecture us on history instead of flailing around holding onto your idea of peace like a little toddler

                    You’re right John Lennon, the urban Afghanis should hold out flowers and remind the Mujahideen what peace is all about.

                    So surprising that an Angloid views the self defense of colonized peoples with contempt and condescension and calls submitting to American armed death squads the “peaceful” option.

                    Great on you for playing the pacifist with the Indians, cowboy. You should play pacifist with the Holocaust in your next argument.

                    Yeah combating the overthrow of a native socialist government by western/pakistani armed, acid throwing religious zealots is “imperialism”

                    Like do even read the trash you just type out, or is it a case of throwing whatever intuition-brained nonsense at the wall and seeing what sticks

            Yeah I was waiting for you to say that dumbass, the the DRA state asked the Soviets to protect them and the rest of the DRA from a rural insurgency inciting a civil war manufactured by Americans.

            Just showing your whole ass, your historical illiteracy, for everyone to see.

            Just keep vibing out bro, liberals don’t need to know anything because liberals have no goals, no project, nothing to build toward or organize, can’t feed people, just consume and know nothing until you die. The perfect liberal subject.

      It’s pretty easy to find sources about Russia’s invasion of Afghanistan. Here is the article in Britannica.

      Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, invasion of Afghanistan in late December 1979 by troops from the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union intervened in support of the Afghan communist government in its conflict with anti-communist Muslim guerrillas during the Afghan War (1978–92) and remained in Afghanistan until mid-February 1989.

      Also in Britannica:

      The Brezhnev Doctrine severely limited reforms by Soviet-bloc countries in the ensuing decades. In addition, it was used to justify the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in 1979. The Soviets sought to prop up the country’s communist government in its battle with anticommunist Muslim guerrillas.

      Russia is certainly not the ONLY major power which has a doctrine justifying invasion. We Americans have the Monroe Doctrine, for one. But if you’d care to explain how Russia is still a leader for peace while using their Brezhnev Doctrine to justify a decades long invasion, I for one am all ears.
