Opening the comments section of stories like this is always a real eye opener for the type of people lemmy has attracted kinda sad.
I gotta say, the tankie infestation of the fediverse is giving me serious second thoughts about this place. I get that it will get better over time as more people join and dilute the crazies, but I currently have a very hard time suggesting lemmy to people because of this.
I guess you’ve no problem with the open Nazis on here? Says a lot about you.
No, that doesn’t “say a lot about me” at all. I keep having to block tankies and similar shit bubbling up from lemmygrad. I’ve not seen an open nazi post here yet but if I see one be assured it gets the banhammer as well and “nazis” gets added to my growing list of “insane fringe groups prominent on lemmy which I never had to interact with on reddit”.
All I can say is Slavi Ukraine! Stay strong and I hope you persevere.
You sure you couldn’t say something that wasn’t a fascist slogan?
I hate war, but Ukraine hates dying. Beat Putin’s ass, and Slava Ukraini!
War sucks, and most veterans and their families know it. But when forced to fight Ukraine is standing, and I hope that Western support doesn’t waiver. I’m sure Putin is hoping to interfere in moar elections as an out.
Could you imagine if his lil orange minion was in power?
Shudders.
Ps, people make sure you are registered to vote.
The moment I realised that the USA was unavoidably moving towards fascism was when the so called political left collectively decided that the problem wasn’t anything internal, it was just that evil, perfidious foreigners had corrupted the innate goodness of America.
Now downvote away, fascists.
Ah yes. More dollars spent where we shouldn’t be spending it.
I wish we didn’t need to do this but honestly this is some of the best spent military funds I’ve ever seen in my life. It’s all hardware, manufactured by the US. So that’s jobs. None of it is death payouts to American families like we had to do in Desert Storm. Russia richly deserves the fight. We’re getting a lot of help from other countries.
I wish we didn’t need to do this but since we do, fine.
undefined> It’s all hardware, manufactured by the US. So that’s jobs.
Jesus Christ. Half a million dead for your stinking jobs. Shame on you.
The loss of Russian life in this shit show is a tragedy but their blood is on Putin’s hands, not the West’s.
? Half a million dead in Russia’s war of conquest is….the US’ fault?
What would Russia need to do in their war of conquest for the deaths to be on them, the invader actively pulling the trigger and killing people?
Of course it’s the US’s fault! WTF?
Nothing, this war is 100% America’s war.
glad to see this site isn’t entirely filled with braindead morons.
Wow you really are an elitist asshole
Is Russia not a sovereign country, do they not have the ability to make their own decisions? Or is Russia so weak they simply follow Uncle Sam wishes?
