"Two Chinese Citizens Captured in #Ukraine While Fighting for #Russia, #Zelensky Says." But there's no evidence at all.

"Mr. Zelensky said that the two Chinese citizens had been captured while fighting in the #Donetsk region of eastern Ukraine. He added that #Kyiv had information that “there are many more such Chinese citizens in the enemy’s units,” without providing evidence"

Farther on the claim is Chinese mercs are there, again w/o evidence

How many Americans (US born and raised) volunteers fought in Spain against Franco/Fascism in the 1930s? And while the US was "broke" plenty of assistance was provided by the US to Franco. There are even pictures and articles of protests in the US against the support of fascism by family and solidarity networks to those volunteers.

So? People can act freely according to consciousness, not all people are puppets of state politics.

During the US war against #Korea many merchant mariners who were very active union members, decided to skip their work in nearby ports and join the anti-imperialist front as volunteers. Greeks in particular, (about 50% of the merchant marine workforce at the time) discovered that at the same time as a NATO member troops from home were sent to assist the imperialist. Relatives and even brothers in some occasions found themselves fighting against each other.

Little known fact. Australia was involved in the ground war on vietnam early on. After a while the Longshoremen started refusing to load the ships with military material, eventually forcing Australia to withdraw. The SF/Oakland Longshore workers also resisted, and as seen at OccupyOakland where they were teargassed and beaten, still have an Antiwar committee.

Vince, who volunteered with the Lincoln brigade was part of Abbie Hoffman's inner circle, as was Stew Albert, who looked like a Trotskyist... wore a suit and looked like a professor, but he was intrinsic to what abbie was doing https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stew_Albert I remember them, and Abbie, and you know; I was a 15 year old runaway from brooklyn. A kid. But they NEVER talked down to me. They saw I was motivated, and spoke in a language I could understand. Ask me what I think of gen bashing memes.
