        There’s usually a big spike in “grassroots opposition” to anything supporting ukraine whenever ukraine gets support.

        Lemmy was originally created by “communists” who kept getting banned on Reddit). They get a bit riled up whenever something that goes against the interests of their favorite formerly sort of red country happens.

        They’re fanatics, zealots. they don’t even need to be paid to shill for these despotic regimes. They do it for free.

        They’re just like the far right in the US… useful idiots who huff propaganda

          The comparison of their style of rhetoric to right wingers in the US makes sense. On the surface it’s hard to tell which group is talking

          Mccarthy wants his Russian paranoia tropes back. Does your internalized homophobia come rising to the surface everytime you hear something you dont like?

              A cocksucking meme is homophobic. This is why shit libs can never be seen as allies, but obstacles to progress of the marginalized.

                  Yes, homophobic. Where did I defend Russia? Opposing one isn’t support of the opposite. That only exists in the minds of children.

                    Yes, homophobic.

                    You’re the one assuming cocksucking is derogatory.

                    Where did I defend Russia?

                    Anyone repeating kremlin talking points like zelensky “doing coke” is just another kremlin gremlin, whether they know it or not. But it’s hilarious to see vatniks pretend to care about homophobia lmao
