This doesn’t make any sense to me. I know they aren’t Marxists, but the goals of communism are people-centric. We’re trying to achieve a better society for all people, so why exclude certain groups from that?

NATO has murdered millions of civilians since their inception as an anti-communist bloc, and Russia even under Putin has been there at every turn to prevent that (Syria, South America, Iran just in recent years). The US admitted shortly after the beginning of the war that Ukraine was never going to be in NATO, and Merkel admitted late last year that Minsk I and II were only made to gain time and prepare Ukraine against Russia (i.e. giving them equipment and weapons so they can keep the grinder going to the last Ukrainian).
If the “international rules-based order” thinks they can ignore those rules and interfere in foreign affairs as if they’re the world police, what do you think is going to happen at some point? Strong words clearly brought Russia nowhere, who participated in the peace talks of Minsk I and II and who received an agreement that NATO would not expand east of their 1991 member countries.
Yes yes everything you don’t like is fascism 😴
I take it you are completely fine with the current state of Russia’s leadership, or how would you describe it?
It’s not about what we like or don’t like. It’s about the situation we have. We live in the material world, not in our escapist fantasies. But liberals don’t understand that, you would rather keep fantasizing that you lived in a perfect world rather than do anything to actually make that world a reality.
No matter how much you wish the war didn’t happen, it did and that’s not gonna change. The question now is how to move forward from this situation we are dealt. Keep sending Ukrainians into the meat grinder until there are no more Ukrainians left?
You assume a lot of things from the people you speak to.
