              Hold on. Wait a sec. What do you mean? Do you think Ukraine isn’t crawling with Nazis or what? You can’t possibly be still on last spring’s yank war propaganda?

                Lmfao if you think this is a war about denazification I have a bridge in the Donbas to sell you. You’re the one quoting the propaganda.

                  I don’t. Nobody does. That’s just more American propaganda.

                  Denazification was only one small point amongst many reasons given for the invasion, the principle one being NATO aggression and legitimate security concerns.

                  You failed to answer the question.

              I don’t know why you think opposing America’s forever wars equals claiming that their targets are perfect utopias. The US literally has over 20% of the world’s prison population working as slaves for private profit. Why do you libs always try to use the gays to push your far right agendas? A few comments ago you were calling people homophobic slurs. smh

                Lmfao the projection is insane. Where did I ever imply I support America? Fuck America. Fuck the prison industrial complex. But fuck you for playing apologetics for an obvious war of aggression, filled with war crimes, started at the behest of an authoritarian anti-lgbt dictator that happily kills his own people to maintain his tenuous grasp on power. This isn’t hard.

                  You’re repeating transparently false American propaganda. It’s America’s proxy war, they’ve openly admitted this on countless occasions. Do you honestly contend that the US is pouring billions into this because they’re humanitarians? Is it? Answer this.

                  Russia tried for almost a decade to pursue peace in the face of US/NATO aggression. We later learned from Hollande and Merkel that the US had no intention of allowing for peace. This is recorded historical fact.

                    What’s historical fact is Putin openly talking about wanting to annex Ukraine since before he came to power, and the documented war crimes and atrocities he’s committed in power before, up to and during this war of aggression that - for SoMe ReAsON - you orcs support. Get. Fucked. Tankie. Fuck. 🤡😂

                  This is about as believable as you being a Marxist. You were caught being a homophobe plain and simple. Please stop with the homophobia.

                  war crime apologist.

                  Show me anywhere I was a war crime apologist Karen. Maybe you should take a few deep breaths before replying. You’re losing it.

                    I don’t give a fuck what you believe, tankie fuck. Your concern trolling while simping for a country and dictator that literally imprisons people like me will never not be obvious, meaningless hypocritical trolling. You christofascist Putinists all give actual communists a bad name. Marx would be ashamed.

      If you are a proud anti-imperialist Marxist, I am Karl Marx and strip you of your Marxist label right now. You are a weasel and a grifter, and a useful idiot of genocidal Anglo empire.

      In a few days you weasels will experience horror, if you think this is too much. And your brain will either be dewormed or you get contained in some obscure Lemmy instance, or go back to Reddit, the CIA hometown.

        LMFAO sure, sure sure. Totally coherent. You fucking clown. You think this is bad, just wait until the API is depreciated, till Apollo shuts down, till the NSFW subs are driven out. It brings me nothing but joy to see you losers drowned out and chased out of your cesspool as the next Eternal September sets in.
