"Whatabout the US??? Critical support for Putin's Ukrainian genocide!"
I don’t think there is anything critical about their support.
"Don't call it genocide! He just wants Russian #landback"
Turns out tankies are actually just as pro-genocide of indigenous people as the far-right are, so long as it's Russia or China doing it.
Which is, of course, doubly insane considering that Russia isn't even run by the Russian Communist Party anymore.
It's worse than that. They're totally amoral. They can't see beyond their stupid idea of the way they think the world should be. They're pro-genocide when it benefits their ideology. I haven't heard much cheering on of Israel from Tankies right now, but if Putin or Xi suddenly allied with them? They'd be begging the Israelis to bulldoze more Palestinian homes with people inside of them.
Enemy of my enemy logic, basically. There are people who have such a disdain for the west that they will lionize any political figures who also hate the west, no matter how contradictory their stated ideals are.
Funny thing is they still live in the west. At least stand by your opinion and move to fucking Russia. I think they're especially welcoming of males in their 20s (only if you're born a male and live as a male, sorry, their "tolerance" doesn't run that far).
You know thats a nonsense thing to say. Moving countries is so fucking expensive, its not something you can just do.
Dont make your quips sound as out of touch as the people youre quipping
Actually, Russia has put a great deal of effort into making moving and acquiring citizenship very easy, as of late, and very affordable.
So long as you join up in the Russian military.
So you get a free trip to Ukraine too?
