    From the removed comments, they still do not understand that opposing weapons shipments to and combat training for openly neonazist groups in Ukraine or being against the rehabilitation of WW2-era nazi collaborators and the resurgence of aggressive anti-communism for the sake of war propaganda isn’t the same as endorsing Russian interrior policy. That’s a level of nuance these fundamentally silly people are not capable of - even when they appropriate anarchism, as the removed user we had in this thread did, they are ideologically neocons, and that means they fully operate under the no-oil logic of “if you’re not enthusiastically supporting any and all acts of imperialism the US is doing, you are automatically offering your full enthusiastic support for everybody the US is designating as its enemies.” There is no other option with these people, it’s always 100% black and white with them and every tidbit of information about Russia is a pretext for calls to join them in their baby brained understanding of geopolitics as the superbowl finals.

    It is also important to note how performative and hollow the support for queer people from these posters is - the removed user has several comments in their history where they also call out transphobia in the UK, but they see nothing wrong with calling dbzer0 their home, an instance that very regularly, and in fact just recently again, has transphobic and homophobic users stirring shit in threads on this site that discuss queer topics. Not giving somebody from that hellhole any benefit of the doubt.
