      Alternatively, you could blockade the tanker about to offload 300,000 tons of Russian diesel in Wilmington NC

        I’m praying USA picks a fight with Ukraine…it will lose so badly actually, that it will finally collapse.

        EDIT: USA will lose, not Ukraine.

      Real. I joined it cuz it said it was FOSS focused and run by the creators of Lemmy which I thought was neat. Did not realize it was a tankie cesspool. I’m now banned from a good portion of it for “Nazi apologia” because I said calling Ukraine Nazis was Russian propaganda

      At least we have elections. Ukrainians don’t. All opposition parties have been banned. All opposition media has been seized by the government. Men have to dress as old ladies in public so they don’t get kidnapped and pressganged ICE style.

      Victory or death.

      And why?

      As an American, I assure you there was no foreign interference needed in making my neighbors awful people.

      I hardly think that’s different for Europeans.

      You seriously think it’s Russia “wreaking havoc” across the world? We may live in the same country, but a different planet.

      Even most Americans admit that’s not true .

          He’s not wrong but is purposely missing all the instances of Russia and China selling vast amounts of weaponary as well for their proxy conflicts. So he’s misleading entirely with this ommission and and denial of it.

          Do you think the troll farms had a larger impact than Facebook’s own algorithm, which was intentionally designed to fuel outrage and bigotry because that increased user time on the platform?

            I think they were in cohorts with each other. The social media sites could have shut all that down overnight, but didn’t. They’re all part of the Epstein class.

                All the wealthy are engaged in some form of rape and likely child rape. Just because they didn’t go through Epstein doesn’t mean they’re innocent. If it were just Epstein then all human of trafficking would have stopped.

                  And you think Russia is the center of the world’s wealth? They’ve got the same GDP as South Korea.

                  This must all be very confusing for you. I understand.

      They’re not, they just don’t think we should be giving weapons to another fascist state to prolong the billionaire’s war.

      The libs don’t actually want to contend with conflicting view points so they just tell people what their opposition thinks.

        Who do you think started the war, presumably you think Ukraine started the war which is odd because I don’t know how you would categorize them as billionaires.

          Who do you think started the war

          In order of responsibilty: Russia’s government when they invaded thinking they could just parade into Kiev and be welcomed as liberators, America’s government, when we supported a coup in Ukraine and didn’t leverage Ukraine to purge the military of nazis or just enforce minsk II, Ukraine’s government, when they refused to negotiate peace, apparently holding dominion over the Russian-speaking lands is more important than the millions displaced, wounded, or killed in the last 4 years.

          Both Putin and Zelenskyy are billionaires. Both Russia and Ukraine are bourgeois “democracies”. This is a war over whether Russian or western and Ukrainian billionaires will own everything in Ukraine and Russia. No workers freedom is going to be won here.

          All of Ukraine’s state assets were already sold off to the west for pennies and Russia seized whatever it wanted in the territory it holds.

          We are not sending weapons to help the Ukrainian people.

            Ukraine is prepared to negotiate with Russia they’ve said so many times, but Russia always violates the temporary ceasefire.

          I’m convinced tankie has just become some sort of pickme tribalism for recently de-conservatived. The lemmy updoot seeking.

          Decades of pro-capitalist and US exceptionalism propaganda is fighting a hard battle in the face of reality.

          It’s sort of annoying, but seems kind of harmless. It’s like whataboutism knee-jerking because US political discourse is pretty juvenile.

      Depends on what you call bots. Yandex is a Russian search service, so it needs to constantly crawl the web, just like Google or god forbid - DuckDuckGo. This traffic is 43% down, and not what Lemmy calls bots.
