It’s basically the new /r/GenZedong.

They should’ve done this way before this became a problem.

I’d like Nakoichi’s thoughts on this as well.

    Russia can do no wrong and deserves full support in everything

    I was there and I didn’t see any of this. I saw critical support stated unflinchingly, which enraged radlibs and they framed it as russia worship & I saw both sides ultra shit. The two argued a lot right before the ban. That’s it. The radlibs saw what they wanted to see. Those same people would have been appalled at the news mega.

      Idk, man. Maybe I just don’t remember it clearly, that’s what it felt like to me.

      To be clear, I don’t feel like it was a major element, and I still think the quarantine was bullshit.

        Z posting is fine by the way, just like Hamas posting is. Memes and support often are taken out of context and taken way too literally by Pearl clutchers in the opposition. A shitposting anti-imperialist meme subreddit is going to have Z posts. I’m tired of leftists treating Russians like lepers they must hold their nose at, most of that comes from Russophobia from the Cold War, Red Scares and Russiagate. Most of their criticisms are ill informed imperialist intrigue or the reasons why we are critically supporting them instead of uncritically, and is already implicitly understood by the anti-imperialists.
