Classic .ml shittake on Ukraine

Wut? Was he talking about the previous Ukrainian government, sponsored by Russia™? I can't make sense of what he is saying, actually.

Yogthos is the kind of piece of shit that "critically supports" bombing Ukrainian kindergartens and maternity wards as long as, somewhere in the world, at least one Western tear is shed over it. Blocking them makes the fediverse far less unpleasant.

I dont get how tankies can support a "communist" nation like China that has an investor class and whose system requires the mistreatment of the proletariat.

Huh. And here I thought Yogthos was a Chinese plant. Turns out they like the taste of Russian leather just the same.

Average Yogthos verbal vomit.

Ah yes, the famously communist Russian Federation. The RF is nakedly an imperial fascist regime that doesn't even have communist window dressing, it boggles the mind that self-proclaimed communists and anti-imperialists support them.

It almost feels like posting yogthos is cheating

Yogthos drank the vatnik koolaid.

For those who like me can't read the original meme text:

"Leftists" whose political opinions on China, DPR Korea, Cuba, Israel, and Ukraine mirror the U.S. State Department's position

And then the face the person is seeing in the mirror is a clown.

I wouldn't have even tried to engage on the China / N Korea / Ukraine side of the analogy. The other one is a lot more absurd. I don't think there is any non-trivial number of "leftists" on Lemmy who think that Israel "has a right to defend herself" and deserves tons of weapons, or that Cuba is a terrorist state.

Lmaooo these dingos think Kim jong un will holler at them if they suck his e-weiner enough

I saw this and it was the trigger I needed to finally block that community. I'm still trying to figure out how to block .ml entirely.

Lmao, I blocked him so long ago I forgot about his existence. Now look what you brought there, a forgottenone!

Least idiotic .ml user

My favorite theory is Putin interfered to have Zelenskyy elected as a sort of lame-dog. Only for him to become the badass we know and love.

Im still learning Lemmy, but for once it finally sent me to a place thats cool.

hello fellow vatnik tankie red-nazi z-gonk dunkers.

Lol, overthrows the government to be run by the exact same government.

The mental gymnastics are ridiculous.

dude talks about not having free and fair elections, supports best korea.

Marx would have liked and shared nafo memes guys

At least they low key admits China&DPRK are under dictatorship, a quality hard to find from .ml user

Unfortunately it does seem increasingly like the Ukraine government has used the war as an excuse to tighten its grip on power and tamp down on democracy. I hope these changes can be reversed but I’m not overly optimistic.

That doesn’t mean a Russian puppet government would be any better though.

This war has nothing to do with any people's right to self determination. It is a clash between two imperialist powers. Russia's actions are criminal and cruel and it needs to be stopped. The same goes for China and even more so the DPRK. But the fastest way to do so is to end the war asap. Just because one imperialism is less atrocious doesn't mean it should be a permissible leftist policy to support imperialism. That's what the socdems did in Europe in 1914, and it cost the working class a golden opportunity to revolt. In an imperialist war, the left should always want their own bourgeois state to lose, because it weakens it and makes it easier to topple. On neither side is it the ruling class that is suffering and dying - it's working class people with their views clouded by nationalism, propaganda, and the promise of money or freedom from prison.

What Karl Liebknecht said over 100 years ago has lost nothing of its truth - The main enemy is at home.

Heh, he is pretty accurate in this =)

You're both right.
