    They get so mad over there when you remind them that Russians would stop dying if Putin would pull his army out of Ukraine’s territory, including Crimea.

    A 3-day “operation” getting stretched out into a 4-year-war is clearly a winning strategy you guyse

    Yogthos is such a stupid person I literally can’t believe how anyone takes them seriously. He’s been saying this for genuinely YEARS

    He’s like those trump supporters waiting for “the kraken” with that whole Sydney Powell shit. I remember a guy who had fuck Joe Biden on his roof in Christmas lights and then had a sign in his yard that said “RELEASE THE KRAKEN”

    6 years later the kraken sign is down and you can still see the outline of fuck Joe Biden on his roof from where the sun and rain wore on the more exposed parts.

    Fucking loser that guy is.

    Oh thanks. I’d blocked a lot of communities from .ml manually, but didn’t ever notice that instance block option down there.

    If only the other groups of rabid culty nuts on Lemmy were so centrally located. :/

    I was banned from lemmy.ml outright for asking if someone that was responding to me with obvious Russian propaganda was a Russian, because he was spouting obvious russian propaganda, I thought maybe he was and was being fed that propaganda.

    I was banned for being racist by asking if someone was a Russian. Which is a nationality not a race.

    And yes, I was also pointing to facts that where contradicting their made up stories about Nato etc.

    It seems to me that lemmy.ml is a Russian misinformation outlet.

    Eh, I’m kind of willing to give them this one. The “Your orcishness is showing” line is pretty close to bigotry.

        '> complains about being banned for bigotry

        '> claims that an entire nationality is worse than a fantasy shorthand for inherently and irredeemably evil species

        I think the mods got it right dude.

          Maybe that entire nationality shouldn’t exhibit exclusively traits of an inherently and irredeemably evil species.

          MLs are banning everyone who disagrees with their narrative regardless of rules, and you know it.

            Don’t collectively condemn Russians just because their government and most of their boomers suck.

            Like there are a lot of Russians who hate the current situation. But Russia is at a point that speaking out means prison.

              My life is literally at risk just by me living and working in Ukraine. Forgive me if I don’t have much sympathy for russians living their lives safely and funding the terrorism with their taxes.

                You think many Russians voluntarily joined the military? A lot of them were forced to join the military and there are many political prisoners who protested Putin who were sent to their deaths because they were forced into the military.

                Holy crap dude.

                  Way to move the goalposts. I’m talking about the majority of the population that doesn’t give a shit about Ukraine or anything outside of their cozy little lives. The ones that only say something when it personally inconveniences them. The ones that watch their husbands, brothers and sons get killed in a senseless war and move on with their lives, content with the scraps putin throws them.

            Maybe, maybe not, but in this case you are pretty clearly breaking their rules about no bigotry, and then doubling down on it repeatedly.

            So once again, they definitely got it right this time.

            I’d also point out that this type of rhetoric is an excellent way to make Russian propaganda against the west seem accurate.

              Me? That’s not even my post, my guy. Though I agree with OP. Anyone who directly or indirectly supports the terrorist nation (including by inaction) more than deserves to be called an orc and worse.

                Directly and indirectly, including through inaction, huh? So pretty much every baby in the world is a literal manifestation of evil or worse.

                I rarely take claims of russophobia seriously. You sir are a russophobe.

                  You sir must be a really good farmer with how quickly you build strawmen.

                  You instantly zero in on anything you can stretch into “bigotry” that is directed against russia but ignore blatant systemic bigotry in support of them. If pointing that out makes me a russophobe, then I’m clearly not trying hard enough.

    Don’t even bother they’re brainwashed and determined to stay that way. I’m sure there are legitimate Russian propagandists among them, but most of them are poor deluded souls.
