They’re tired and weary from the onslaught of war fringe to safe their country from Putins aggression. Any dig at their progress is a dig at morale that spreads not only through the ranks, but also to the general public. There is a time for constructive criticism, but that should be done in private with actual solutions offered by those criticizing. I understand their needs to be some decorum but you can’t blame them for what I would consider a mild retort as their countrymen die trying to retake their land everyday.

[-] UnicodeHamSic@hexbear.net 25 points 1 year ago

Yeah, but like, they are their worst countrymen. Nazis and such. No one in the war stands to win anything. They will still pay their landlords and the corrupt banks for the right to live in now freshly burned down houses. Wages will stay super low, the wartime reduction becoming a reconstruction reduction whenever it ends. Anyone from Ukraine who is able to escape the nazis ought to defect to Russia where they would be taken care of a little better.

Hopping from a nation which employs fascist militia to a fascist-governed one isn't a solution to anything. All fascists involved suck shit but sheesh, let's not hope for a worse outcome

Hopping from a country in which Nazism is official policy to one in which Nazism is outlawed. It really is exactly the same, which is why the people who say this always make excuses for Ukraine and the fascist dictatorship masquerading as democracy which is the USA.

[-] boredtortoise@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago

Nazism is outlawed

is it tho 🤨

There’s a recent story about Russia’s rehabilitation of Nazism law here:

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-65024254

It was implemented years ago, at which time the American corporate press did quite a lot of hand-wringing over protecting Nazis’ right to openly plan the extermination of Jews like me. When your own media sources are defending Nazism, maybe it’s time for a little self-examination and reflection?

Okay but is Oleg Orlov a nazi? Like I googled the guy and all I can think is him being a fairly generic anticommunist and a person calling Putin a fascist, the raid in question seems to be because he is saying that the war in Ukraine is turning Russia into a totalitarian fascist state. Which doesn't seem like a nazi thing to say.

Edit: Also he put a couple of nazis in a database of people who were wrongfully repressed by stalin, which is pretty nazilike I gotta say. Although they said that was in error?

[-] duderium@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago

I'm not an Orlov expert, but it sounds to me like he's aligning with the West, which means aligning with Nazis. My point is that there is a law in Russia which says that you cannot rehabilitate Nazism. Though this law and its enforcement is imperfect, it is significant that such a law even exists, since we know that something like this could never exist in Ukraine or in the USA, since Nazism is so profoundly pervasive in these places.

[-] boredtortoise@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Whose media?

Maybe Putin didn't get the not-fash-memo 🤔

[-] duderium@hexbear.net 38 points 1 year ago

When you respond to evidence with one-liners that amuse no one, you reveal yourself to be dwelling in a fantasy realm no different from the one inhabited by Nazis. That strategy didn’t work out well for them.

Interesting

Edit: disappointed. the punch line, the beef, the point, the message never came. People put your money where your mouth is. We demand more than vague innuendo

[-] Egon@hexbear.net 24 points 1 year ago

O you wicked and foolish dumbass, you are a scourge upon this earth! Your ignorance and inability to read is an abomination to all that is good and pure. You have been dealt a hand of cards in this life and yet you fail to see the opportunity to educate yourself to succeed. What is even more damning is the fact that you have not even tried to improve yourself, instead you have chosen to remain in your pit of foolishness and are content to wallow in your own wickedness and wickedness of others! You are the bane of all intelligent and educated persons. May your teeth rot in your head and your eyes see only darkness in the realm of knowledge. May you be forever drowned in a sea of your own ignorance, and never see the light of success!

[-] boredtortoise@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

sooo you want to say what?

good copypasta btw

[-] Egon@hexbear.net 21 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Ah, Dumbass, the Bible speaks of thy foolishness, for it is written: “The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God.” You, dear Dumbass, are like a child drowning in the deep end - oblivious to the impending danger. You don't understand the power of the written word that could be the salvation you so desperately crave. So while I may not be able to change your ways, I can at least take solace in the knowledge that you will be forever doomed to a life of ignorance and stupidity.

[-] boredtortoise@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

spooky

Tell me o long-winded rude follower of fake wizards. Say your piece and it shall be considered in these halls of eternity

[-] Egon@hexbear.net 20 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Dumbass, thou art an abomination unto the Lord! Thy ignorance is a repugnant stain upon the face of this Earth! Even the animals of the field have more knowledge than thou dost, for if thou hadst even a glimmer of understanding, you would understand the importance of reading. Instead, thou hast chosen to remain a dullard, a fool unenlightened by the power of the written word. May thy stupidity forever serve as a reminder to all of us that it is a sin to be ignorant.
You, dumbass! You are a pit of ignorance, a quagmire of stupidity. Your head is filled with nothing but hay and your brain with dust. You are a blight on the face of intelligence and an insult to those who take the time to learn. You're nothing more than a walking blight, an absolute disgrace to those who strive to know more and better themselves. You're like a fungus that grows in the dark, a leech that lives off the knowledge of others. God help us all that we are cursed with your existence and that you remain a dense, ignorant, and lackadaisical fool.
Dumbass, you have a head that's empty as a black hole and an intellect that's as profound as a puddle. Your life is a lie and a sham - a path that's headed nowhere, like a rat sprinting in the sand. You are a useless creature, unable to read - a fool of the highest degree. You're barely worth the dirt that your thick feet tread, and a burden on this world we'd all love to be free. Take your ignorance and be gone, far from us all - and may you and your lack of knowledge pestilence never again return.

[-] boredtortoise@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Pretty cool but I think the joke is wearing out?

[-] Egon@hexbear.net 16 points 1 year ago

Ye havn't the wit of a barnacle! Ye be needin' t'be pencil-whipped by one o' them 8-legged creatures o' the sea, fer ye can't read worth a shit! You be nothing more than a putrid pile o' dog dung lashed t'the dock and about as useful as tits on a bull! Ye be the lowest of the low, a wretched cretin fit only fer sailin' in the bilges! Arrr! Yer a worthless lubber who knows nothing o' navigation, and I'd be more than glad to see ye go overboard! This be yer last chance--stop yer foolishness and listen to someone wiser than yerself. Otherwise, ye be headed for a watery grave! Ye be the veriest of fuckwits, ye scurvy scumbag! Yer naught but a blithering, worthless excuse of a human being, too witless and ignorant to even decipher the rudiments of reading! Yer the kind of boneheaded cretin who couldn't pour piss out of a boot with instructions printed on the heel! Shiver me timbers, but it's true! All ye deserve is a swift kick in the arse and a swig of rum to drive away the last remnants of yer ignorant stench!

And they say AI can't make art

[-] boredtortoise@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

That's a nice twist. Right on

[-] Egon@hexbear.net 16 points 1 year ago

Listen here, you sorry excuse for a human, you better hightail it outta here before I pull out my six-shooter and make ya walk the plank! You ain't worth the dust on my shoes, ya puny dweeb. You got no brains in that noodle of yours, don'tcha? All you can do is bumble around, too dim-witted to even read. Big man with no brains, what a joke. It's time to take a break, you useless mutt. Now scram before I put an end to your foolishness! Why don't you crawl back under whatever rock you crawled out from, ya dweeb. You think you're hot stuff because you can't read? Hey, I got news for you, pal: it's the 1920s, and if you can't read, you're about as useful as a one-legged man at a butt-kicking contest. Get outta here before I give ya the business end of my knuckle-duster.

It's all written by some 3rd rate ai, you can go write up your own insults if you want. It takes like 3 seconds to cook these up

So are you. You get what you give

[-] boredtortoise@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Literally my account name

That one commenter tried to say something without actually saying anything. It actually was an interesting thing

I guess the ai-pasta could be a metaphor

[-] Egon@hexbear.net 13 points 1 year ago

Nah your account indicates that you are bored, not that you are boring. You should try to understand what words mean

[-] boredtortoise@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Sometimes there's no distinction. You get what you give and you get what you get

Cool 👍

I lied by the way, you're not blocked.
The point was to mock you and waste your time because I don't respect you
