What I have learned:
- Russia has already won the Ukraine war
- Which NATO started
- A lot of people in the West think that Ukraine should surrender
- Also Ukraine was the world’s main provider of CSAM
- Also Ukraine is exploited by the West but if they can unite with Russia then their economy and everything else will finally be alright
It’s literally like a bizarro world and everyone is over there agreeing with it. I’m genuinely confused by, who even are these people (what is the mixture of Russian bots / Russian-aligned ordinary people / confused Westerners / some other explanation.)
That is the power of an echo chamber. My favorite post by a hex was when he tried to convince me that the Tiananmen Square massare was fake. He had a comprehensive list of over 20 links prepared, with bangers like “Actually, the massacre wasn’t happening on Tiananmen Square, but next to it. Checkmate globalists”. I’d love to link it here, but shame on @goat for deleting that post and sending them to the Tankie corner, because now I can’t find it anymore, not even in the mod log.
Oh god yeah, all the freaking time. I feel my brain turn to Jello when someone goes all-in on the “massacre was fake” bullshit, often insisting that no pictures exist, pretending it’s just the Tank Guy pic. Someone references the notorious bike pic, they pretend you’re talking about a similar bike pic that’s a LITTLE less clear about tank treads crushing human bodies. You link them the actual bike pic, they either pretend they don’t see the slaughter (best I heard was “they’re not dead or run over, they’re just taking a nap”) or they start saying “well those were the violent people and China saved the peaceful protestors from them”
It makes me want to vomit
what post are you referring to? I haven’t been on the site for almost a year dude
