    Trump is funny. Obviously. Terrible but hilarious. We don’t back Russia we just understand NATO to generally be far more destructive and deadly. That’s just old Tom Bombadilaros thoughts.

      That’s so dumb… To consider a defensive alliance more destructive and deadly that a corrupt state waging a war of expansion

        Defensive alliance that bombs every third world country that dares to go against the interests of the imperial core? Who are they "defending again?

        us-foreign-policy

        Also how much has NATO expanded since the end of the cold war with its mafia protection racket style tactics in Europe?

        defensive alliance

        NATO is defensive? lol, lmao

        a corrupt state

        That’s Ukraine, it used to be considered the most corrupt place in Europe by the Western media right until February 2022

        waging a war of expansion

        That’s also Ukraine since they’re trying to take territory from the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics after they declared independence following the coup against Viktor Yanukovych in 2014

      Russia - starts wars and threatens nuclear holocaust - you sleep

      NATO - literally just exists - you wake

      Russia’s #1 export is troll farms and that’s why Russia is the most hated country in the world. Y’all just give people more reason to hate Russia.

        NATO - literally just exists - you wake

        How many millions of civilians were murdered/killed/starved/driven from their homes/displaced by American and NATO led imperialist wars such as the bombing of Yugoslavia, the invasion of Afghanistan, the bombing of Libya, or Isr*el’s genocidal occupation of Palestine, which is proudly supported by the US and NATO?

            You honestly think less civilians were killed in all those things COMBINED than by Russia? Really? That’s actually one of the most wild liberal claims I’ve ever seen, and thats saying something. You’ve lost attachment to reality.

              Prove me wrong. If you can’t, well of course you’re a troll farm and you’re part of the reason Russia has a reputation as the shitstain of the world.

                You made the extraordinary claim. Your job to provide proof.

                Also I’m an American communist from New England. One of the posts on my profile is about weird shit in the American Pie movies. Another recent one you can actually see is about Skyrim. Clearly troll farm shit. (I’d point out the idea that the Kremlin would bother to astroturf lemmy is INSANE, but that ones been falling on deaf ears because you all are so self important).

                    Jesus I really doubt someone with Fae in their name is cishet but you used that word really slurishly.

                    simping for a dictatorship

                    I’m not. Looking at the Ukraine War with the nuance and knowledge of geopolitics it deserves isn’t simping for Putin. I hate the Putin regime, especially what they do to their queer community. Its not like Ukraine is that much better on queer issues though?

                    My posting history goes back three years before federation. You’ll find very few of my posts were about the Ukraine war.

            You ignorant gnome. We hate Russsia more than you. Russia is the liberal democratic nation built by the US from the corpse of our comunist forebears. I’d ask if you ever read a history book but your Midwest tag proves the only ones you got were written by Haliburton so it isn’t your fault you are the way you are. If I wver visit your region I must try to trap you I in a circle of salt and force you to actually read some theory.

              Also, just do a quick browse of midwest.social vs hexbear. Your instance acts and talks like 4chan or the_donald.

              Is it an actual book or is it wojak spam, because I love reading but your wojak spam is insufferable.

              Russia is not liberal or democratic. It is a corrupt capitalist oligarchy/dictatorship with limited human rights. It was built by the US from the corpse of the USSR.

              Y’all claim to hate Russia but also spend a suspicious amount of time defending it.

                  Absolutely not. America is more liberal and democratic, even if marginally. America has not had a single dictator in power for 2 decades and it’s actually fairly okay to be gay in America.

                  I would 1000% rather live in the US than live in Russia.

                    The US has more money. There are for sure places where there that is not true. As history progresses we will see which way America grows. I have no reason to expect it will become anything other than more russsia like as conditions intensify.
