Africa having a field day today. This quote is upvoted by the same people that want no queen slander whatsoever.

Europe is becoming completely unhinged in their joined effort to…? To do what exactly? Financially destroy themselves to own the Russians?

If we don’t go all out in a nuclear war for the above mentioned reason then I wonder where the European socdems draw the line.

    “We live in the freest democracies on the planet” while at the same time “I didn’t have anything to do with my nation’s atrocities! I couldn’t do anything about it (except benefitting from it)!”

    Then you have the whole “You live in a dictatorship shithole, you’re responsible for everything your government does. If you weren’t a subhuman you should have overthrown them already!”

      The people talking about overthrowing Putin are particuarly absurd. Yeah, they should just get scores of people killed and overthrow their own government because…reasons. That totally won’t backfire on them when NATO marches in and takes over.

    If these people were smart, they’d hang out an olive branch and try to get as many defectors to their side as possible, but no. What do they think is going to happen if they continue to villainize the Russian people? Even if Putin magically drops dead like Western Media claims is gonna happen any day now, he’ll be replaced by some random Russian dude (or dudette) who is seeing all of this dehumanization and wants to pick up where he left off.

    This is officially no longer about Ukraine, this is about “punishing” Russian civillians for the crime of being born in the wrong country.

        There is a non-zero probability that if Putin is somehow overthrown, the one who will replace him will be so bloodthirsty that he will not hesitate to press all the red buttons.

          It’s not about being bloodthirsty, it’s about being callous and out of touch. See the reaction to the current “partial” mobilization. Imagine if a full-scale mobilization was announced, as certain “true believers” were calling for.

                Of the people, or of Navalny-affiliated libshits that called for burning voenkomats right after Putin’s speech? Those idiots burned some shit earlier during SMO too, did “#нетвойне” protests persist?

      I don’t think it ever really was about Ukraine. Ukraine just happened to be a Russia bordering nation that isn’t part of NATO. And the US and friends just want to defeat Russian influence over Europe, because then the US can completely dominate the continent. And in Ukraine they succeeded in luring Russia into war.

        Yes, it never was, it was always about Russia, which was always seen as outside enemy, even during the Napoleonic Wars and Holy Alliance when it literally saved the asses of western empires. Socialism increased that fear and hate tenfold. It’s completely obvious how even Yeltsin’s Russia, completely humiliated and domesticated, was still not allowed to join the “free world” even as third class citizen like Poland or Romania were.

        West, as every fascist organization, needs an enemy to cover the fact that their own ruling class is the greatest enemy of their peoples.

    Bravo, nazis are showing their true colours yet again - that should really go to “shit fascists says”. Especially stupid of Baltics to burn the ships when they are gonna be thrown overboard as the first ones.

    Also “Every citizen is responsible for their country’s acctions” should be really recorded for the future trials of the compradors. After all, it is only just to judge people according to their own laws, deeds and words.

      But if the populations become radicalized against Russia/China and Euro politicians remain US puppets we may not get to see this develop. However beyond Europe this seems to be exactly what is happening. The whole Saudi Arabia thing could be a big development going forward for example.

    real alarming how there’s basically no critical pushback to the russophobia going on in the comments. the language they use about Russians is the same as reactionaries in the US use against immigrants. but of course the Ukranian refugees are okay, who according to one commenter speak better Estonian than Russians. and some mask off logic going on with “if we accept more Russians, their country will use it as an excuse to invade like Donbas” while at the same time saying “there’s so many Russians here I can’t even speak Estonian”
