you would believe how bad these guys are at understanding basic shit
[let’s see how long for this post to turn into a shooting gallery]
This shitshow brought all the tankies to the yard in lobste.rs too:

I especially like the dude relitigating the Continuation War from the orthodox Russian historiographical position that the Second World War started on 22 Jun 1941:

Edit I wondered about the curious term “genocide-siege” and lo and behold, reading the Wiki page on the Siege I found this nugget
On 18 March 2024, the Russian foreign ministry issued a statement via TASS to the German foreign ministry saying that the siege of Leningrad was a genocide.
The tankies are giving each other high-fives and are labelling me as a “Eurocentric Swede” which isn’t exactly the insult they think it is.
As a leftist, I don’t think I’ve drunk enough red kool aid to come around on Russia. I just don’t get it.
Have you tried looking in the mirror and repeating the phrase “I am the imperialist and it’s not ok”
[Comment removed by moderator pushcx: Don’t pour gas on the fire by adding even more geopolitics.]
What does it take to cross the line of incendiary geopolitics in this thread?
I actually recently made a little script to preserve the nuggets of wisdomshit produced by the esteemed commentariat and then either deleted by them in shame or purged in righteous mod fury.
The deleted comment is this:
There are a lot russians who don’t support Russian aggression. Discrimination based on a trait people are born with, be it skin color or nationality, is racism. Linus is racist.
Can they also ban Israeli settlers from contributing to Linux or is that inconvenient for mossad agents to back door linux?
Mod pushcx woke up and applied the deletehammer, enjoy this archive of deleted comments
