Why does Lemmy.ml, which apparently thinks of itself as leftist, support Russia's imperialist invasion of Ukraine?
I've seen comments across Lemmy from people registered to Lemmy.ml, who defend Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

That's horseshoe theory, you filthy heretic!

Looks like a way to paint your beliefs as the good ones, and if you have to enforce them on everyone else for their own good, so be it.
