i'm in the us and have actually met other .ml users in person 😂
the xenophobic paranoia about us will never stop being hilarious tho
Are they all losers who live in basements like you, and swear China is good but refuse to move in?
literally indistinguishable from a chud post lmao
Yes because as we all know, personal anecdotes are totally sufficient evidence to throw out an entire hypothesis about general trends. (The /s should be clear enough).
Also, criticizing Russian troll farms isn't exactly what I would call xenophobic, but you do you!
libs 🤝 fascists: "it's those foreigners bringing us down"
you are calling anyone you disagree with russian and openly wishing they get drone striked but it's my statements that need evidence??
fuckin dronies
Nice strawman, but tankies are the ones who shake hands with fascists towards their mutual goals of subverting western democracies (and both feeding from the same tube of kremlin dark money at that).
It's telling how you call me a "lib" though, just for criticizing the ultra-far-right-wing imperial fascist financial oligarchy that is the Russian Federation. And then you double-down on claiming that's xenophobia?
That's not what I said at all, and you're blatantly distorting the facts (like a troll would do).
Since you seem to be having trouble comprehending this, I'll explain it another way:
A significant portion of the .ml user base are either russian trolls, or russian-sympathizing trolls. I wasn't "wishing anyone who disagrees with me would get drone-striked." I was saying "I hope these drone-strikes targeting troll-farming datacenters take a noticable portion of troll accounts offline."
If you can't see the difference between those two things then you're probably a troll yourself.
literally what you said, along with hoping that 'wherever the users are located' gets drone striked.
you sound like a fascist who prefers blue
i'm an anarchist and you going on about 'western democracy' like it isn't an imperial fascist financial oligarchy too is fuckin hilarious.
Okay if you just want to be dense then this conversation can be over.
If you like anarchism so much then you should probably stop defending kremlin talking points, because they're literal fascists. (And unlike you I don't throw that term around as a cheap insult devoid of context or meaning)
you absolutely do though. you act like a nationalist posturing that you're on the left. incapable of criticism of your own government without needing to filter it through as 'foreigners ruining our glorious democracy'
i accept your surrender
you don't seem to see that the issue i have is with blaming foreigners for your own country being fascist.
i use she/her, asshole
not beating the allegations
Right right, maybe put your pronouns in your username if you're going to call people asshole for not magically knowing what they are.
And as you continue to frame my criticism of russia as simply "blaming foreigners," I'm tagging you as a troll. Goodbye 👋
they are in my display name
you framed it that way with your own words
you should block me so we never have to interact again
Yeah that doesn't show up on my client.
Go ahead and block me since you already suggested it, hah. Expecting me to do it for you is exactly the kind of petty wannabe authoritarian bullshit I would expect from your instance
how convenient, feel free to edit your previous comment.
you seemed so offended by me, i am just trying to spare you the aggravation
such nuanced criticism:
Yeah do you want to include the context of what comment I was replying to, or are you just going to cherrypick tidbits devoid of context to try to make me look bad? Because everyone in this comment chain can see that the comment I was replying to was calling Ukrainians nazis, which is blatantly a Kremlin-sponsored propaganda point. And since you're trying so hard to defend that, I can only assume you're the same.
i was just noting how quickly you jump to dehumanizing your political opponents
it was direct evidence for my original point
you seem to be looking for any excuse to dehumanize me, just an observation.
Yeah if you're jumping to defend the guy who's defending kremlin imperialism by calling Ukrainians nazis, then I'll dehumanize you too. Try not shilling for fascists and then we can have a more humanizing conversation.
the original point that guy made wasn't pro-russia, it was anti-unipolar dominance. it's not even an uncommon anti-imperialist position and has nothing to do with defending whatever 'the kremlin' does.
you then jumped to calling him a russian for saying that 'western democracy' is a bourgeois dictatorship evolving into open fascism.
so in defense of your preferred hegemon you jump to dehumanizing him. you already have been by calling everyone on my server bots and making veiled wishes for users to get drone struck. you really seem incapable of self-reflection. certainly not beating the allegations about where 'western democracy' is headed with defenders like you.
You're severely distorting the context of this conversation, and the only people left in this thread seem to be you and your brigade of .mls anyway, so I see little point in continuing to try reasoning with you.
But once again, to set the record straight, I called you all trolls, not bots. I don't know where you got that from. And I didn't wish for anyone to get drone striked, I simply expressed a hope that the next datacenter to get hit takes down a noticeable portion of troll accounts. If you're literally anywhere other than a russian datacenter/troll farm, then that comment expresses absolutely zero ill-will towards you. So I don't know why you're acting so upset about it, after all didn't you claim to not be located in russia?
And I never defended western hegemony or the resurgence of fascism we're seeing in the west (which, by the way, is funded by russia and enabled by widespread russian disinformation networks contributing to foreign election interference). I simply criticized russia for subverting western democracy, i.e. by funding those fascist reactionary parties, which results in those democracies degrading further into russia-esque fascist oligarchies.
If you couldn't see that that's what I was saying and not your grotesque distortion, then you're not engaging in good faith. Nobody could be that genuinely dense.
Also, "anti-unipolar dominance" is essentially the talking point I often see used to justify authoritarian regimes that happen to be non-western. So no, I see right through that BS dissembling as it's patently transparent.
western fascism has plenty of indigneous roots, the amount that russia spends is a drop in the bucket. it is a convenient way for you to avoid examining how capitalism produces fascism domestically. everything can just get blamed on your state adversary and anyone pushing back must clearly just be under foreign influence
god forbid we use the website we're on, clearly anything opposed to you must be coordinated foreigners
you weren't engaging in good faith from the start, you literally were calling all of us russian bots and hoping our 'datacenter' gets drone striked.
you are just defending your preferred type of authoritarian regime and cannot comprehend when people supporting the lesser evil in a fucked up situation end up opposing you.
Calling russia the "lesser evil" is fucking hilarious.
And if you're not a fucking bot then I wasn't talking about you, so why are you taking it so personally when I say "fuck those bots"?
Also, for the zillionth time, I said trolls, not bots. Was that a fucking freudian slip?
She's a dumb lost Nazi, ignore her.
oh i'm not a nazi, but i'm not convinced about you
Your usage appears interchangeable.
I find the speed with which you jump to dehumanization interesting
I find the speed with which you personally identify with "russian trolls in russian data centers" interesting.
Lesser evil is when you invade countries. People Republic of America!
that is why people don't like the US, all the countries its invaded
Move to China then, dipshit
lol you even post like a chud
why would i go there, rather work to make america less shitty
Okay yankie, sorry I post like your idols ❤️
you seem very invested in defending america for someone who isn't from here; absolutely subservient behavior
Yankies go home, skin yourselves for trump
you just told me to go to china lmao, pick a lane
western democracies are democratic in the way that national socialists were socialist
Okay, still better than whatever the fuck russia has and is trying to install everywhere else
"What Russia has" is exactly what the West is turning into. Not because Russia is dragging them in that direction but because that's exactly the natural evolution of capitalism.
No ML defends "what Russia has". They're simply the lesser of two evils and are one of a handful of entities that oppose total world domination by the US. I support them only in so far as that goes (despite the fact that modern Russia is no saint, multiple competing shitholes are still better for humanity than one unconstrained one).
Lotta words just to name yourself a russian symp.
lmao
How’s the effort to start a communist revolution going?
Go fuck yourself, vatnik shitslurper
