Current events dictate that I post this.

Either they’re all ironic and OP sides with Russa over Ukraine or none of them are ironic and OP sides with Israel.

I don’t like it. Fuck Netanyahu and Fuck Russia.

I absolutely and unequivocally side with Palestine (half of my family is Palestinian) and Ukraine.

It’s jokes. It’s a shitposting group. I shitposted.

I do not stand with Russia or Israel. Both of those regimes go against everything that means basically anything to me. They are evil, along with the USA, which I live in unfortunately.

I get you. But I still downvoted your post. Why? Not because I disagree with anything you said in this comment, but because you can’t be certain anymore. Shitpost communities are also being affected by people with actual political motives, many memes aren’t memes and tankies rule this space of the internet, just like I left 9GAG years ago because of the neo nazi takeover.

I’m a firm believer of the horseshoe theory (which of course isn’t a blanket theory for everything), but nazis call me communist scum and tankies call me (apparently, as it just happened under another comment under your post) a Zionist. Of course I am neither.

They’re all the same people to me. They’re people with a twisted, broken and oversimplified worldview who won’t be bothered with annoying things like facts and logic. Maybe tankies have a slightly better heart, but the ones supporting the DPRK are just as deranged as the MAGAts.
