This generation in Western Europe is totally against Russia. It is necessary to uproot them in their entirety.
Why do you think this happened? This guy has no idea.
Putler has a nostalgia problem wanting to return the soviet union (a nazi shithole)
When they admit their war crimes we should believe them.
this is great, posts like these draw out all the tankies who I can then add to my block list
misguided people who simp for dictators and war criminals just because they oppose the west
People who’ve gone so far left they’ve come full circle and gone fascist and admire authoritarian communist regimes like China and the USSR. Like flat earthers I thought they were a made up joke until I started seeing a while bunch of unironic “Stalin did nothing wrong” type commentary.
I think a better question is “where are these tankies?” because I keep seeing people talk about them on these kinds of posts and have yet to actually see a tankie. Who here is defending the killing of POWs? You’d think they exist based on some of the posts here calling out this strawman.
Their communities have been defederated from .world which is why you don’t see them.
Creators of Lemmy are tankies. Lemmy.world defederated from their lemmygrad instance but lemmy.ml is still there unfortunately.
No different then when some SS officers admitted to what they did to the “undesirables” and that they deserved it, and would do it again.
Russia is a diseased country that’s trying to spread its rot. Why they aren’t dealt with more sternly is curious to me
because invading another country usually involves mass civilian deaths and should be avoided as a rule
Nobody wants to invade Russia. Whats absurd is that we sit around and let them invade other countries. I understand the desire to avoid escalation but if all other avenues fail there should be a willingness among free nations to boot them out swiftly and efficiently and make it clear that their dreams of empire building are done and it’s time to get their house in order instead of distracting themselves with destroying others.
there is currently an extensive international effort to not let them invade other countries
They maybe have nukes
They literally can’t fuel their own tanks so whether or not their nukes are more than just expensive paperweights is very much up for discussion
And foreign policies
Basically, there’s no direct laws to prosecute other countries. There’s only sanctions. And since we can’t pull them in front of the Hague, we are using sanctions. And with “we” I mean all of the world except for a few rogue nations like Saudi Arabia, North Korea, China, India, and a few more iirc.
