Not imperialism:

  • America couped ukraine in 2014
  • America put poroshenko in power. he integrated CIA-backed nazi extremists into the military and police and territorial defense units
  • America put yatsenyuk in power (he took out huge IMF loans that put most ukrainian farmland in the hand of foreign capitalists)
  • America poured billions into Yeltsin’s campaign in the 90s and supported him materially and ideologically as he shelled Russian parliament, banned parties, banned newspapers, and rolled back labor rights
  • America supported and benefited from the mass privatization of the former USSR that destroyed nationalized industries and put them into the hands of oligarchs
  • America supported right wing extremists in Ukraine and Russia for decades
  • NATO expanded right up to the Russian border despite assurances to Gorbachev this would not happen

(these are victories of democracy according to American libs)

Imperialism:

  • Russia invaded Ukraine to prevent further NATO expansion, to support DPR/LPR independence, and to prevent Ukraine from becoming a staging base for the American military (what usually happens to junior NATO members). for literally no reason, please stop asking why it happened, putin is just evil ok, history started in february

Don’t forget that the ethnic Ukrainians from Galacia were probably going to slaughter huge numbers of ethnic Russians from eastern Ukraine.

*have been for 8 years

in 2014, members of the Social national assembly, right sector, and misanthropic division, and “Fatherland is Young”, cornered a bunch of anti-Maidan demonstrators in an odessa trade union hall and burned them to death.

2 of the right wingers died, but 46 of the left wingers died, often from asphyxiation or suicide by jumping out of windows. English language wikipedia calls this outright massacre a “clash”

There’s a bot on Reddit now that lets you check how many times someone has posted in this dipshits subreddit. It’s fun because the losers get really fucking angry about it.

/u/VaushCheck /u/User_Name will call the bot to analyze User_Name

Lula’s actual opinion on Ukraine: “The reason for this war, from what I understand, what I read and what I listen to, would be resolved here in Brazil at a table drinking beer. It would have been resolved here, if not in the first beer, in the second. If not on the second, on the third. If it didn’t happen on the third one, until the bottles ran out, we’d make a peace agreement” lol

Some Vaushite was trying to explain why tankies were actually fascists and brought up Caleb Maupin as his example of a typical tankie.

Vaushites, man. Idk what to do with them.

That is a good thread. It’s very weird seeing people so interested in Maupin and the Larouchites and RedHaz, since as far as I know all of them together have maybe a few hundred followers.

For those of us on the internet ideology war the Vaushites are the primary ideological enemy we have to deal with right now.

More specifically what I mean is socdems that present themselves as ““leftists”” and argue against everything to the left of them. They exist to sheepdog would-be radicals away from socialists.

Nobody else poses any opposition to the left. The neoliberals are easily dealt with, as are the fascists, nobody else is actively harming the left. It is ONLY this ideological group that is hurting leftist growth and leftist education.

In the online space it definitely is bloomer-ish but these people are a fucking pain in the ass.

There are no other ideological groups online that present any damage or danger to us, it is only these socdem fuckers who consistently turn good potential radicals away.

Vaush would have defended shooting Rosa, or shot her himself. That’s what these people are to us. They are our primary opposition and should be considered the largest priority, online at least. Nazis and neoliberals are doing jackshit to stop/slow the growth of the left online, only these fuckers are.

Create post

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
