“I just wanted to pay for college!!”

And I guess what they really meant was:

“Yeah I’ll kill brown people for money!”

I’d argue that your view is the simplistic one.

Nobody is responsible except Putin. He’s like Santa Claus, delivering every bullet on the frontline himself in a single night.

This is completely false though.

Out of the three of us, the Russian rando is the only one that can realistically influence the Russian state unless you and I are willing to put our boots on and plan an invasion. He is part of the Russian polity.

Now Putin may rule through fear, but he still only rules with the consent of the average Russian rando. If enough of them decide that they’re no longer “non-political”, Putin will no longer rule and the war can end. Frankly, that’s the only way this war is going to end. So this is entirely their responsibility.

With that in mind, the question I raised above still stands, how many Ukrainians need to die to avoid hurting or inconveniencing the average Russian rando? Can you answer that?

To continue on your train of thought, how many Ukrainian children should die to save the life of a Russian child?

Russian parents can decide to end the war today. Ukrainian parents cannot.

You see them throw a knife to the side when they’re handcuffing his body.

I never actually saw the mail before. I read the GOG apology and assumed they used runes that looked a bit too similar, but looking at the screenshot they full on used the Siegrune at least.

Rereading the apology, they might not be Nazi’s but they’re definitely not sorry enough to give a proper apology for using Nazi imagery. That’s not a good look either.

Are Japanese men just … problematic

The President of the United States raped children, everyone knew it, and he was still elected with the consent of the majority of Americans.

I don’t think it’s specifically Japanese.

And they don’t do regional pricing. Buying a game on GOG is nearly twice as expensive in my currency compared to someone in the US or EU.

Legally.

Tell that to the monks at Lindisfarne.

There’s a good chance your ancestors came to the UK by boat.

I don’t know where you’re getting your ball gowns

critical support

You think that if people understand you perfectly they have to agree with you. The truth is your argument just doesn’t hold water.

You could argue that China is a potential balancing power to American hegemony. Putin’s regime is just a boil on the ass of the world. It starts imperialist wars and uses its military to forcefully extract wealth from countries like Syria and the CAR (like the Wagner operated slave gold and diamond mines).

Supporting Russia (even “critically”) does nothing to further the struggle of the working class, in fact it does the opposite by giving Russia leeway to start wars that kill working class people and entrenches the power of Putin and his fascist oligarchs.

Furthermore, Russian “resistance” (i.e belligerence) only provides justification for the expansion of NATO. Their warmongering causes Finland to join. I’d also argue that the lives of people living under Putin are worse than those living under US hegemony. So what is your goal? Replace bad with worse?

Finally, Russia has no capability for defending third world nations, with civil activists on boats providing more aid to Cuba and Palestine than Russia has in a decade.

Then you started to deny there is fascism in Ukraine

Where did I deny there is fascism in Ukraine? Every country has dickheads that dress up like Nazis. Do the existence of ultras in Poland or skin heads in Latvia justify an invasion of those countries to you? As I mentioned, the Russian state literally operates a neo-Nazi paramilitary group but you don’t seem to have a problem with it.

My point was the hypocrisy and straight up lies you use to justify imperialist wars. A point that is clear to you but you can’t address because it crumbles your worldview.

I’m simping Putin because I’m pointing out basic facts of the situation

You’re literally repeating Russian state propaganda verbatim with no critical thinking.

Graphene doesn’t support Pixels older than the 6.

If they didn’t vote they were happy enough for him to become president.

CalyxOS is back too and also supports older hardware than Graphene.

We can already feed everyone. We just choose not to. Space travel has nothing to do with it, but we should do it anyway.

Right I can see you have no defense. Keep simping for Putin, you’re just as bad as Americans defending their and Israel’s wars.

Just like kids in the 2000s wore Nirvana shirts. Retro. Vintage.

Excellent rebuttal.

Supporting the Russian state as an anti-imperialist force is not just wrong but hypocritical.

America can be bad without Russia having to be good.

Just like there’s no Nazi’s in Russia eh buddy. They literally deployed a state funded neo-Nazi mercenary group in their imperialist war (Wagner).

Maybe Russia needs a special military operation for de-nazification.
