    I honestly can’t tell if these .ml guys in these discussions are trolling or just spouting retarded nonsense and calling everyone a Nazi for the sake of it

    Oh that guy. He spends all day on Lenny pushing pro-Russia and pro-Chinese propaganda. It’s probably his job. I’ve asked him to hook me up with extra work, but no leads yet.

    Ah yes, the famously communist Russian Federation. The RF is nakedly an imperial fascist regime that doesn’t even have communist window dressing, it boggles the mind that self-proclaimed communists and anti-imperialists support them.

    Yogthos is either a fully paid professional propagandist or a highly skilled amateur. Probably the latter.

    I’d call him(?) the single worst person of lemmy for the reason that every time he speaks of things that have nothing to do with politics, he seems like an absolutely cool dude. I remember even that in the first weeks of Russia’s aggression on Ukraine, he was being kinda somber and realistic about it. But then The Message somehow reached him and he started spouting Russia’s propaganda at full blast. He’s clearly intelligent and literate while doing this, which is just doubly sad.

    In him, Communism has completely ruined a perfectly good person, and it’s a tragedy every time it happens.

    Yogthos is always here to provide the shittiest of takes and the most phallical of fallacies.

    This war has nothing to do with any people’s right to self determination. It is a clash between two imperialist powers. Russia’s actions are criminal and cruel and it needs to be stopped. The same goes for China and even more so the DPRK. But the fastest way to do so is to end the war asap. Just because one imperialism is less atrocious doesn’t mean it should be a permissible leftist policy to support imperialism. That’s what the socdems did in Europe in 1914, and it cost the working class a golden opportunity to revolt. In an imperialist war, the left should always want their own bourgeois state to lose, because it weakens it and makes it easier to topple. On neither side is it the ruling class that is suffering and dying - it’s working class people with their views clouded by nationalism, propaganda, and the promise of money or freedom from prison.

    What Karl Liebknecht said over 100 years ago has lost nothing of its truth - The main enemy is at home.

      Ah, so Poland should have craved defeat when invaded by Nazi Germany?

      That’s the true proletarian view, right?

      So you support full scale mobilisation of NATO to match on Moscow right? That’d end the war right quick.

        I know you’re trying to be sarcastic, but you’re actually just showing that you didn’t read my comment. I d o n o t s u p p o r t e i t h e r e m p i r e. Besides, when has a European force marching on Moscow ever ended in a quick victory for the European power?

          I d o n o t s u p p o r t e i t h e r e m p i r e.

          Yet apparently, you only support resolutions which result in the Russian empire being allowed to continue its genocide unabated, I guess because Ukrainian lives are devalued by being part of the Western Empire or the Imperial Core™ or whatever the buzzword of the day is.
