Russia ain't leftist nor communist.

Yes, which is what makes it all the weirder than Western MLs still simp for them.

It's just good old fashioned American diabolism.

Believe it or not, while there's many bad things the US is and does, other factions are capable of being and doing worse. Maybe look at a situation on its merits rather than having "America bad“ as your single political principle.

Fuck socialism if it leads to outcomes like the USSR or DPRK - but that's the thing it doesn't have to be, and those definitionally aren't socialism.

This one struck some nerves lmao. I don’t expect much from the people who think the full strength of NATO is fighting in Ukraine. Poland alone would march to Moscow in a month

[-] rdri@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago

Well after 2 years of such stupid losses, any army would do that in a week. Proved by prigozhin.

Why Poland specifically? Not an expert on (international) politics

[-] rikudou 17 points 10 months ago

I don't think there are many countries that hate Russians more than the countries formerly occupied by them. And Poland is the most well-known of them internationally.

[-] Shurimal@kbin.social 13 points 10 months ago

Not a pole, but from the neighborhood and can confirm. And by "formerly occupied" we don't mean just Soviet Union. Russia's imperialist shit has been going on for literally centuries.

[-] Sylvartas@lemmy.world 13 points 10 months ago

Biggest army in western Europe. Also they hate Russian imperialism with a passion if I'm not mistaken

[-] Diplomjodler@feddit.de 5 points 10 months ago

And they've built up quite a formidable army in recent years. But then again, even Andorra could march straight to Moscow these days.

"nazbol" is the term

[-] ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 4 points 10 months ago

Republicans are fighting in Ukraine? Defending against the Russians, who, in this meme appear to be implied as the invading orcs?

Kind of an odd take. Meme doesn't really make much sense. Wouldn't Theoden and Grima have been a better LotR meme template?
