What I have learned:
- Russia has already won the Ukraine war
- Which NATO started
- A lot of people in the West think that Ukraine should surrender
- Also Ukraine was the world’s main provider of CSAM
- Also Ukraine is exploited by the West but if they can unite with Russia then their economy and everything else will finally be alright
It’s literally like a bizarro world and everyone is over there agreeing with it. I’m genuinely confused by, who even are these people (what is the mixture of Russian bots / Russian-aligned ordinary people / confused Westerners / some other explanation.)
Oh god yeah, all the freaking time. I feel my brain turn to Jello when someone goes all-in on the “massacre was fake” bullshit, often insisting that no pictures exist, pretending it’s just the Tank Guy pic. Someone references the notorious bike pic, they pretend you’re talking about a similar bike pic that’s a LITTLE less clear about tank treads crushing human bodies. You link them the actual bike pic, they either pretend they don’t see the slaughter (best I heard was “they’re not dead or run over, they’re just taking a nap”) or they start saying “well those were the violent people and China saved the peaceful protestors from them”
It makes me want to vomit
