Tomorrow_Farewell [any, they/them]

Ah yes I see absolutely no difference between these two puppets. I have seen absolutely no difference between the leadership and policies of these two organizations. None whatsoever.

You are saying this as if there is a difference between them other than decorum.

Ah yes, the hyper capitalist, right wing, oligarchy of Russia is such a wonderful alternative to liberalism

Firstly, you quite literally support NATO (including Ukraine), which the description of ‘hyper capitalist, right wing, oligarchy’ fits even more (you can even just look at Ukraine - the epitome of what you decry in Russia).

They are both horrible garbage. Have fun being a campist.

You quite literally are a campist yourself, and you support an even worse USian vassal in Ukraine.

Generally, accusations of ‘campism’ are just revealing of a person’s white supremacist views, as the accusations are invariably flung only whenever somebody opposes colonialism.

Because their comment was in a whataboutism in defense of of propaganda

You don’t get to complain about propaganda while invoking ‘whataboutism’ (i.e. calling out your hypocrisy) - a very obvious sign of you being heavily propagandised.

If you accept state propaganda just because it is not “western” flavor

Weirdly enough, you don’t make such protestations against your empire’s propaganda.

Enjoy your hard right wing, capitalist, oligarchical slop

Quick question - do you support NATO (including Ukraine) in the war in Ukraine?

My whataboutismeter is overloading, stop.

People who genuinely believe that invoking the word ‘whataboutism’ is a serious argument, or that what they call ‘whataboutism’ (i.e. pointing out hypocrisy) is a fallacy are silly.

While you’re here, I’d like to ask you a couple of questions:

1. What do you propose a state do when the most prolific invader in the world tries to amass military personnel and weapons on its border, especially by doing a coup against a neighbouring state.

2. What criticism of Russia do you have that doesn’t apply to the polities that you support?

Weird how you never propose to ban NATO’s news platforms. Only the platforms of your empire’s designated enemies.

You are proving my point - you can’t actually say anything bad about him (without exposing your hipocrisy), and you can’t provide an alternative course of action for Russia. You only say that you can.

I invite you to prove me wrong.

Go talk to some people living in moscow if you feel so strongly

What should I ask them? And why specifically Moscow and not, say, Crimea, or the Far East?

It’s kind of silly how you people keep complaining about Putin while not being to say anything bad about him (other than what applies to the polities you support).

On that note, I do wonder what you think a state should do when the most prolific invader brings weapons to its borders to attack it, especially when accompanied by attempting coups against its neighbours.

I care less that he did those warcrimes, and more so that he atones for them and does positive things

He has done nothing to atone for them, however. What are you even talking about?

Contrary to what you are implying, one does not accidentally build a mortar, fire it at civilians, and then speak on forums about how awesome of an experience that was.
One also does not accidentally sign up multiple times to go torture and kill people in Iraq and Afghanistan.

You were trying to excuse a USSian invader going around orders in order to fire explosives at civilians in the comment I replied to:

They shouldn’t be there obviously but it’s a little different don’t you think?

He was a guard at Abu Ghraib, so he was already known for doing what you claim to be unforgivable when western liberals were saying how he should be rewarded with a high position in the most vile state in existence.

You’re aware the House of Trade fire happened over 10 years ago right

And?

And if there’s any stories about Ukraine deliberately targeting civilians, please share

I take it you have never looked into it, as, among other cases, they literally struck a student dormitory and a civilian bus very recently.
Also, apart from the Ukrainian state targeting civilians, they have also very famously perfidiously used civilians/pretended military personnel to be civilians to carry out a drone strike last year.

If afterwards he says he shouldn’t have been there and done that

He says it was an ‘excellent experience’. He considered the ‘experience’ to be good enough to sign up several more times, including as a mercenary, and to then brag about it.

is anti Israel

Well, he isn’t. He’s even friends with zionists.

and his opponents are pro Israel and in the case of Susan Collins literally voted to send his ass and all the other thousands of troops there

She didn’t force him to sign up even once, let alone several times.
He also isn’t any better in terms of policies - he wants to strengthen the military.

My reaction is he wasn’t killing civilians for his own kicks

He has literally said that he had fun doing it and bragged about it.

He said he was firing at enemy mortar positions. You know, people shooting at them

Him having such enemies is a direct and very expected consequence of him signing up to torture, kill, and otherwise subjugate the people of Iraq and Afghanistan multiple times.
The only way you can think he had any right to retaliate in general is if you think that repeatedly signing up to torture, kill, and otherwise subjugate the people of Iraq and Afghanistan multiple times is perfectly okay.

I see he was deployed at those times

Which means that he was a very direct participant in the process that involved things like killing (as well as torturing, including by SA) children in Iraq. He signed up to do that multiple times, because of how much he loved the ‘experience’ (according to him).

It’s not unreasonable to see a guy who comes away from the military saying “Hey this is bad and we shouldn’t do it”

He didn’t do that. He bragged about his atrocities as an ‘excellent experience’.
Why are you still trying to pretend that he showed any sort of remorse?

‘Everybody who disagrees with the genocidaires of Palestine and invaders of Iraq and Afghanistan is subhuman’, apparently

The statement is basically ‘we oppose Netanyahu, but we are fine with the Lebensraum genocide in general’.
