I’ve been interacting with them recently to see what they are all about and lmao I don’t think I’ve ever had a dumber discussion in my life. Truly they are uniquely stupid.
“Opposing military conscription is stupid” and other hot takes from westerners that have never had to fight a war at home.
How is it stupid to oppose Zelenskyy’s suicidal conscription polices? It makes Russia’s mobilisation/conscription look pacifist by comparison.
If you pop into that users history, you’ll see that the interacting they’re talking about is whining at me for a couple of days because I called them a racist.
Not really. You just use the word ‘racist’ as a general insult to people who disagree with you. I don’t really take it as an offense since it means nothing in that context, but using the word ‘racist’ ignoring its actual meaning is problematic.
How do you not understand how using a racial slur to insult someone is racist?
Because mongrel is not a racial slur. You made it a racial slur. I could argue that the word Bastard is a racial slur by the same logic. And given enough time and effort, you would believe it if all you see is race.
There is a history of mongrel being used as a racial slur, you chose to ignore the evidence of that I showed you so you could pretend to be a victim.
All you need to know is that it was not used with a racist intent. The word itself was not even used in a context where it could be interpreted as racist. I mean, can you even answer which group of people the word was racist against based on your interpretation?
What are you proposing should happen in Ukraine?
Negotiations? It’s clear after the attempt at a “counter offensive” that Ukraine do not have the ability to gain any significant territory, and they are just throwing lives and equipment into a void of mines and trenches. And Ukraine is not going to gain the ability to break though these fortifications anytime soon, I cannot see western nations giving Ukraine the weaponry required (an air force is the main missing component needed for NATO style combined arms tactics to function).
Unless Ukraine can find a way to convince western nations to give them the equipment required to make breakthroughs (very unlikely), they are stuck in an attrition war with Russia. And I don’t see any path to victory in an attrition war against Russia. The article we are commenting on is one of the major reasons why, they’re having to fire people just to get more conscripts. At that point, negotiation is the best possible outcome.
Surrender. War crimes tribunals. Re-education. The rebirth of the USSR. We aren’t asking for much.
Ooookay.
The same will happen one day in the USA, just like in China and Vietnam 😉
Yeah, why not let
HitlerPutler occupy us?I mean: how bad can it be?
/s
Comparing Hilter to Putin is tantamount to holocaust denial.
Putin is a bad man but they aren’t anywhere near to the same level.

The Holocaust.
Generalizing Russians and instead of Putin’s regime AND calling them stupid. Not racist at all.
So easy to beat someone when you leave out half the sentence:
I wrote “Tell me one thing Hitlers regime did that Putins regime hasn’t done on a smaller scale”.
And yes, Putin hasn’t done the holocaust, because they thankfully aren’t well enough organized to do that.
The rhetoric is there as I already mentioned. The smaller scale “disappearances” of civilians Nacht und Nebel style and experiments on larger scale exterminations like Olevnika are there.
Word plays won’t get you anywhere.
And if it it racist to point out that Putins regime is evil but thankfully dumb then so be it.
Someone would probably tried to arrest me for hate speak against the nazis too.
You didn’t say Putin’s regime, you said Russians. Look who’s leaving shit out now?
And idk how to tell you this but scale matters.
Intent matters more, just because ruzzians[1] are inept doesn’t make it less punishable.
[1]:happy now that I have narrowed it down to only those who actively support it instead of the vast majority who just passively support it?
Good to see the mods aren’t tolerating your Holocaust denial.
At no point have I denied Holocaust or Holodomor or any of the other ghastly things Russia and Nazi Germany did.
