I was in the U.S. minding my own business like any other person from any other country should. what about you? were you taking it to the streets? protesting annexation of Crimea? or are you just some keyboard tough guy communist sympathizer with no actual historical context for why Russia would invade the Ukraine?
so now they are ....not fighting to defend their invaded country, but they are fighting to weaken the country that is currently invading them? do you hear the logic as it spews out of your mouth like a brown ooze? it's shit. you're talking shit.
I AM from Ukraine, you liberal nimrod. And not from the Eastern part, not even close. I got news for you - Ukraine is a fascist state. It's now a concentration camp where people have been getting kidnapped off the streets for the last 18 months at least.
I'm living through this fucking hell. And I'm telling you, right here and now - you have no clue what you are talking about. Before 2022 most of you could not even point to Ukraine on a map, and now you're pretending to know more about this conflict than actual people living there, just like a typical lib with your typical brain rot.
And speaking of the actual people... I'm going to voice the opinion of the overwhelming majority in Ukraine, especially the youth: we do NOT want to fight. We want to capitulate and get this bullshit over with. We don't want your stupid "aid" (if you can call it that), your stupid taxpayer money, your stupid "advisers", we don't want your fucking weapons. We want your imperialist boot out of Ukraine.
Before picking a side to defend, maybe try learning actual history of what lead to what. I'm tired of seeing clueless wandering lame.ee libs defending this shit.
People probably have no idea how wonderful it is to see comrades from Ukraine here. I'm so glad to not feel alone, not only in the world, but in my own country as well.
God damn, Thank you for putting that boneheaded lib in this place.
Western libs are all confidence and no intelligence. We are the most propagandized people on the planet, and most people are so uncomfortable with the word "propaganda" that they refuse to even acknowledge its existence.
At the beginning of this conflict, I was a western ib all the same and though I didn't speak about it online, I supported Ukraine. It took a lot of keeping my mouth shut and listening, and learning history, and just not being so over confident, to finally come to the understanding that the West is causing this problem, not trying to solve it.
Lame.ee is the fucking worst.
Thank you for being willing to speak out and being the voice of reason.
Similar thing. Being apolitical played a bad joke on me. Though even then I did not have hatred towards the Russian people, despite being absolutely carpet-bombed with propaganda. But then I started to see inconsistencies and - surprise! - contradictions. And then the big one dropped - in mid-2022 I realized it was the West who sabotaged the peace talks. I started digging. All in all, these material conditions radicalized me into becoming a communist.
That's no coincidence and you know it. In more ways than one the empire depends on the bubble. Hate your enemies but respect them - the US is unmatched when it comes to lies, projection and propaganda - in general. It's great that you punched through all of it - it strengthens my revolutionary optimism even more. Keep your head up, comrade!
Thank you, comrade!
