      Yeah more like it, the poetic effect makes it kinda wierd, like if they supported the Tsarist borders and not communist Ukrainization

    It’s really cool how good feds and their useful idiots have gotten at mimicking “leftist” vernacular while still constantly arriving at the same conclusions as actual capital F Fascists, supporting ethnic separatism (especially from the undesirable races, like Russians and Serbs) wherever they see it. Balkanization along racial lines (as it was originally performed, unsurprisingly) is always worth supporting to these fools, national sovereignty be damned.

    “Leftist”: “No, you see, Ukraine’s is a battle for national liberation from the imperialist Russians. China is acting mighty imperialist with Taiwan right now, they basically have two whole different cultures and China should just let go.”

    Fascist: “No, you see, Ukraine’s is a battle for ethnic freedom from the Slavish, less European Russian orks. The Asiatic Chinese are acting mighty expansionist right now, threatening U.S. military power in the Pacific. They need to give up before we nuke them, I mean, Taiwanese are basically Westerners at this point, might as well be a whole different race.”

    It’s like Marcus Garvey and the Klan coming together on black separatism, except in this case both sides are white, and Garvey was actually useful to society.

      Yo, sue me for this one, but I think it’s actually pretty fucking cool 😎 when nation-states are multicultural, multilingual, and ethnically diverse. Problem is and always has been equitable representation and mutual respect for human rights, but fuck me for thinking that breakaway ethnostates popping off everywhere and actually doing “ethnic cleansing” is not the answer to that problem.

          Absolutely. Bolivia and Nicaragua are two aspirational models I think revolutionaries in settler-colonies especially ought to look to for inspiration more.

    I remember when that tweet was going around. Here’s an even worse version some lib made at the time:

    About Kosovo, if you look at demographics map of it, you will immediately notice that someone was ethnically cleansed from most of it, but not who the west propaganda claims.

    What’s up with Rojava? I hear they are supposedly left wing, are they supported by the west somehow?

      USA/Turkish puppets basically, war would be over sooner if it wasn’t for them.

      they are left wing led and have progressive education/aims, but the society is deeply conservative.

      Also, they are stuck between turkey who wants to kill them and put jihadists instead, syria who wants to establish their control again (likely sidelining many reforms due to conservatism and causing unrest among rebel groups on AANES), and USA who no longer has a use for them except as a proxy to keep turkey and syria out of that lands.

      They tried to play for US backing, that backing kinda weakened a lot, so they are playing between Syria and USA for now.

      Best solution would be to rejoin Syria and for Syria to reinforce support for educational/cultural diversity, which is also tricky since Syria would prefer to keep higher control and promote unity.

    I don’t know why, but it really irks me. That original posts has some very, “Sudetenland is Germany!” vibes.
