Yeah but this cuts to the core of the lib “anarchist” principle of right to self determination. Crimea and Donetsk both did not want to be a part of “Ukraine” so I ask them if they actually believe in the right of self determination. Of course they will say they were coerced into joining the Russian Federation but then that leads to easy followups about the limits of anarchism. You are forced to chose which state you want to live under, same goes for talk of the Kurdish resistance, look how that turned out for them.
another one i like is “NATO getting what it wants sure seems like it’s going great for the people who live there”
