These silly "russians are the actual good guys" memes are so sad and silly. They want land and power they dont care who the ukranians are.

Nothing Russia could possibly do would ever justify supporting nazis

[–] Wrufieotnak@feddit.org -4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Have you looked at the Russian side? Strangely you only condemn the Ukrainian side, but not the Nazis in the Russian Russian one

"Whatabout the other guy" my tax dollars aren't supporting the other guy, quit making excuses and quit supporting fucking nazis dumbass

[–] Wrufieotnak@feddit.org -5 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Perfectly fine opinion to have.

That's not what the tankies say though ;)

[–] Amnesigenic@lemmy.ml 5 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

I'm the tankies and I'm saying it so no

[–] Wrufieotnak@feddit.org -3 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago) (2 children)

Now I'm confused, so you do support Russia?

Not supporting Ukraine isn't the same as supporting Russia.

And supporting Russia in the context of the russian war in Ukraine is pretty much the litmus test regarding being at a tankie at the moment.

  1. What do you believe the Marxist take on the Russo-Ukrainian War is? Why?

  2. Do you believe the people of the Donbass region support Russia, or Kiev? Why?

  3. What do you believe Russia wants to get out of the war?

Let's start with those 3 questions.

Critical support for Russia in destabilizing the US, both are capitalist shitholes but the US is far more of a global problem. Current gov of Ukraine is a US puppet, no support whatsoever.

Still laughing about that article talking about the warhammer 40k novels no longer getting a Ukrainian localization where they were interviewing someone in the military with the callsign “Shekel”. Like holy shit.

Many downvotes, no rebuttals. They just cling to "But Russian invaded!" Okay then, do you condemn the Allied forces illegal invasion of Italy on June 6, 1944? Italy wasn't doing anything to America, the UK and Canada!

What the fuck is this post can someone explain

Russian propaganda justifying the invasion of Ukraine

[–] vinceman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 3 days ago (20 children)

This community has a real problem with defending Russia on the invasion of Ukraine. Think this is the last post I've seen from here.

[–] artiman@piefed.social 12 points 3 days ago
