I am genuinely confused by hexbear too

Is it a site for queer people or for beanis lovers?

    It’s really cute how rattled they are by our most mundane of takes, as if it’s our fault they fell for one of the most ludicrous propaganda campaigns in recent history

    Obviously what’s happening here is that they’re becoming increasing uncomfortable with the fact the mainstream media and establishment are signalling their intention to abandon the war now that it’s obvious who’s won, but because they can’t look inward and ask themselves why they fell for this imperialist warmongering nonsense in the first place, so it must be those gosh darnn tankies and their worship of authoiritutrainaism that’s to blame

      Good thing there’s a pretty standard set of trope copes.

      “Ukraine is too corrupt and wasted our western wunderwaffe”, or maybe, “Ukraine kept defaulting to their own tactics instead of using western training because the slavic brainpan is simply incapable of superior angloid warfare” or hell, lets go with a classic for the bitter Ukrainian nazi’s if there are still enough alive to have a say “our jewish leadership hamstrung us” – something in line with the typical satanically racist “garden” thinking.

      The kind of narrative that lets them slip on by without considering whether or not they were lied to, or the stability of high GDP economies that don’t actually manufacture anything except consent.

        The too corrupt thing is kinda true bit that was also widely known before the war. It’s why a lot of people had a problem with sending billions of dollars to one of the most corrupt governments in the world that’s infested with self avowed neo nazis.

        yeah pff, watch them eventually settle on something like “that communist orban betrayed the effort, that’s why we lost. we need another red scare, but this time for real!”
