The problem is there are always comments like these: https://lemm.ee/comment/4359032
Adding context is obviously necessary.
It’s characters from a popular TV show as knitted figures.
Which works were sampled for this?
You mean like USA?
And look how well that’s going for them.
Address the point, coward.
USA is also responsible. Fucking obviously.
I live in Denmark. We’re sending absurd amounts of military aid. The commie party supports this on the basis that Ukrainians have an indisputable right to defend themselves. I agree with that, but there’s obviously room for discussing what exactly that implies in terms of support.
All billionaires should go jump off a bridge. Liberal politicians should take a trip to the Titanic, and I have a very nice wall I want to show the billionaire who bankrolled the Danish libertarian party.
I’d be more than happy to have a conversation about the conflict that isn’t just parroting neoliberal talking points, but as I said, this is a litmus test. If you can’t state unequivocally that Putin, a murderous billionaire, deserves to die, then you’re not any kind of socialist I can recognize, and I’ll have no further interest in talking with you.
It’s a litmus test for whether I want to engage with you at all.
Being able to state unequivocally that a murderous billionaire should drop dead is the absolute bare minimum for a socialist.
I have yet to get a straight answer from so-called socialists on Lemmy.
By deflecting blame from Russia.
Do you agree that Putin should drop dead?
Russia escalated. More people are dying now.
Except that OP is trying to frame the invasion as justified when the reality is that Putin thought he could bully his neighbors. NATO predictably went “fuck off” and that somehow means bombing Ukrainian children was unavoidable.
What he’s saying is that Putin doesn’t get to dictate which alliances sovereign nations can join.
I mean the Ukrainians being bombed by Russia. I assume you’re aware that thousands of Ukrainian civilians have been killed by Russia.
The problem you have with the Donbas genocide narrative is that, even if true, it doesn’t justify an invasion, killing even more people.
Why a supposed communist would even want to justify Russia’s actions in this conflict remains a complete fucking mystery.
I’m pretty sure Ukrainians being bombed have no interest in joining Russia.
Ukraine surrendering is evidently not happening either. Given that Russia is indisputably in the wrong, maybe that’s the side we should put pressure on. Just a thought.
It’s needlessly cruel
Why would I force a child to watch violence? You’re a very strange person.
I’ve been told many times that China controls Reddit and that’s a 5% stake, so …
