Prof Ivan Katchanovski: Political Scientist at UofOttawa and a Ukrainian.
Statements by US Vice President also corroborate my prediction that US could remove Zelensky because of his refusal of peace deal.

No it isn’t. They may think they have good reasons for not wanting peace talks (they don’t), but definitely every big newspaper, almost all influential Western politicians and your average redditor were against peace talks this whole time. They relentlessly shouted down everyone who even tried to bring it up.
Of course the warmongers say they’re for peace. Peace through superior firepower. Peace through victory. But that is disingenuous. That’s called war.
And I’m no pacifist. I’m for having a war (a class war), but I’m not going around saying war is peace. That’s fucked up.
You should check out the work being done by the anti capitalist Solidarity Collective.
If there is one thing that is clear, it’s that the Ukraine war is a late stage capitalist war. Units are sponsored. Ukraine has not resorted to widespread nationalisations or labour conscription. Unlike the total war of the 20th century, Ukraine’s war effort heavily relies on market mechanisms and civilian donations.
Ukrainians are left in darkness and many without heating. Yet, shopping arcades are lit in garish lights, with lavish displays of luxury fashion brands.
And yet this has created an opportunity for grassroots movements like solidarity collectives who supply anarchists, human rights defenders, trade unionists, eco-anarchists, anarcho-feminists, punk-rockers, and political refugees from Belarus and russia as military units with everything they need laying the foundations and build the knowledge needed to topple the authoritarian ruling class, independent of the state.
