I don't know why we still have to point this out but:

You don't have to apologise for Putin, Maduro, or the Kim dynasty to oppose the USA,
You don't have to apologise for Israel to oppose anti-Semitism or Islamofascism,
You don't have to apologise for Iran or Turkey, to oppose Israel,
You don't have to apologise for Russian imperalism, Neo-Ottoman imperalism, or Chinese imperialism to oppose USA or EU imperalism,
You don't *have* to make apologia, in fact, for anyone or anything, and you can take a position like, "I am critical of the Ukrainian government but that doesn't give Russia the right of invasion". You can call out things that are wrong on all sides, and still point out which side of a war is legitimate; it's not hard. You don't have to pick an ethnic group or nation-State and bat for them unconditionally forever. You can in fact go outside and meet some actual people affected by whatever horrible thing is keeping you awake at night, and be there and give material support, and this is much more important and also more rewarding than being an unpaid keyboard warrior for their leaders.
