  • It’s mostly just liberals and fascists and their natural hatred for socialists.

    I will say that the anti-Ukraine thing is kind of real. Nobody here thinks Russia is secretly communist or anything, but Ukraine was overthrown in 2014 by a neo-nazi aligned, US backed coup. They then spent the better part of a decade persecuting ethnic minorities in Eastern Ukraine, which overwhelmingly supported the overthrown government. The stuff they were doing would have gotten a non-US aligned government branded as cultural genocidaire, but they kept escalating and eventually were firing artillery at civilian centers regularly and sending neo-nazi death squads into the East to harass and murder civilians.

    Nobody here wants the war there to keep going and causing all this suffering, but the idea that this is a black and white conflict and Russia invaded for no reason at all, or because he just wants to expand Russia, is not common here.













  • It’s the province. It’s like a state. This is like if you thought the US was genociding Hoosiers but didn’t know what “Indiana” meant and then when called out on it you said

    I looked it up, it’s a city in The Hoosier Autonomous Region. Please give me some links on how that’s relevant. I don’t like search engines for this stuff.

    It almost doesn’t matter what else you say going forward, you’ve been speaking from ignorance this whole time, which makes all your words seem like they’re in bad faith. We all know what Sartre says about antisemites fascists liberals leftists and words.
