        Yeah, it’s something else reading on a Lemmy instance, under a hammer and sickle how the worst thing Putin does is “transphobia”. And how the west is doing lying propaganda because Kinzhal could never be intercepted by the inferior Patriot.

          I despise them saying “oH bUt wHat aBoUt zElensky” whenever there are any posts about the Ukrainian-Russian war. Whataboutism at it’s finest.

        left wing and right wing are the wrong qualifiers here. even the two-dimensional political compass is oversimplified but the auth/lib axis is a hell of a lot more accurate in this case than the left/right axis. (and i’m not here to defend right wingers, but tankies specifically have this stick in their ass.)

        but yes, tankie bullshit is the same as alt-right bullshit, just under a different flag, and a somewhat different plan on what to do with the world once they install their dictators and wipe the undesirables.

        All commies are either authoritarians or are living in a fantasy world

        Not everything bad is right wing. Take your unsavory elements, stop acting like they belong with others.
