Also apparently Noam Chomsky, the dude who praised the collapse of the USSR, is “an appeaser of the soviets”. Straight up mccarthyism. Azov Something is 100% a reaganite. I have 0 doubts, when the revolution triumphs Adam Something gets the wall immediately.
“Hah, you stupid tankie, NATO is a defensive organization. Every leftist should support NATO and the EU. AntiEU and antiNATO= literal proPutin far right crackpots like Marine LePen or Jean Luc Melenchon. Stupid tankie”
-Azov Something
Yes he literally said that. He said Melenchon (the french leftist antiimperialist candidate who just united the entire left in 1 bloc to beat Macron in the parlamentary elections) is just like Le Pen because hes against NATO so hes a fascist. He recommended voting Macron. He literally said this.
Is he a corporate shill or just an idiot?
Also, remember when did trains? I do, those were the days…
Why not both?
Hes a shill i think. My spider sense suggests me hes a paid SBU shill. Hes more propagandistic than the western media. He takes random twitter threads as indisputable evidence. He ignores any russian victory and hammers down on you every minor ukrainian fake victory. Hes not normal.
Given my observations of him and other eastern Europeans of that his generation, I think it is normal, it’s a learned behaviour from his surroundings. Of course there are probably a bunch of paid pro-imperialist shills around in these online spaces but he doesn’t come off as one to me, even with all the mindnumbingly stupid things he’s said in the last three months especially. I think it’s more just the anti-communist esthetic that so many millennial and Gen z eastern European men take on. It’s not an educated stance, it’s not a principled stance, it’s just how you fit in to your social circles.
