Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Have you read the comments on

It got so bad the mods banned using 'Orcs' as the term to refer to Russians with in the early days of the war. And many redditors cried about that.
We can argue the semantics of what exact type of dehumanizing language was used, but the overarching point remains.
Why in the world would I poison my eyes by going to that sub? Or even reddit at all.
Then what's your complaint here, exactly? People are shitposting and being somewhat hyperbolic, but a lot of liberals have considered Russians subhuman morons since at least the beginning of this war
Oh "it was a joke, bro" is used when being called out as ridiculous here? Ok then.
No one thinks anyone is subhuman, except you guys saying it about anyone you don't like.
What does Stormfront have to do with anything?
What are you on about?
People here are commenting that many liberals thought Russia was going to invade Europe, and that libs have considered Russians 'orcs' and generally stupid subhumans, that is where reddit comes in as it serves as a decent aggregate of liberal opinion.
Reddit literally banned the term 'Orc' in early 2022 because Ukraine used it to refer to Russians and Redditors eagerly adopted it; you can also see how they've tried to subvert it in there and who knows how many other threads. Like this one.
It got used so much it literally has a 'slang' page on wikipedia.
Russia invading Europe was literally the position of much of NATO at the start, and they continue to just toss out ideas about it.
A Reddit link was detected in your comment. Here are links to the same location on alternative frontends that protect your privacy.
Would you say Florence Gaub's statements suggest she sees Russians as less human?
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
I didn't realize that person was here on lemmy. And no I'm not going to watch a random YouTube video, thanks.
How do you type with your fingers in your ears?
Why would I do that? I'd have to remove them from your mums ass first.

Starting shit on an obscure communist web forum is peak chad.
It's not random, it's a news interview with the Director of the Research Division at the NATO Defense College.
"Oh fuck uhh lalalala I can't hear your evidence"
"brainpan" is a clear marker of making jokes about phrenology and race science ideology. Obviously no one is seriously explaining behavior in terms of brainpans in the modern day, but the argument goes that there is very little substantial difference between that and modern styles of "othering" used by modern definitely-not-fascists.
i think you're subhuman, here's why
Why would you need to go to reddit when you could just browse your own post history
Why would you show up here just to talk shit?
Because they know they can't get hit. These "Ban me! Ban me!" Libs are all the same. Pathetic losers who want to start fights, but too wimpy to finish them.
Because that's what all of your comments are.
There's people here actually trying to engage you with examples and arguments but you're still just bitching that they asked you to provide more specific objections.
Lol yes you guys are well known for being exceptional debaters lmao
I mean, feel free to try and own us in a debate if your so confident about our lack of skills
(insert random emoji here)
We do have a pretty dope emoji collection.
This is only an effective dismissal because you say nothing of substance
Eat shit, spew bile, get told your breath stinks and cry about it
