OP is known tankie just fyi. Doesn't justify US or Ukrainian actions but make sure you understand that the reason for posting this isn't out of any actual concern for human beings. They're also peddling covid conspiracies
So let me get this straight, according to you:
The people that don't support either side of the war and want to end it as fast as possible through peace talks are evil tankies.
And the bloodthirsty monsters that want to prolong a pointless war, arm Azov Nazis and kill as many people as possible with illegal inhumane weapons that scar generations are freedom-loving liberals.
Seems like the tankies are the more reasonable ones in this situation.
That's an interesting point, but have you considered Harry Potter?
So you neither support the rapist nor the victim. How enlightened centrist of you.
Lmao what a misogynistic pig to compare sexual assault to war.
What an imperialistic swine to not do it.
Damn, imagine hating women to own the Russians.
Imagine comparing condoning self-defence to hating victims.
Damn, imagine hating women to own the Russians.
Imagine thinking that retort makes sense.
Damn, imagine hating women to own the Russians then whining when you get called out for being a misogynistic pig
I'm not sure that made sense even in your mind.
Mald harder, pig.
Surrender == the end of Ukraine. There's 0% chance of Russia honouring it for any meaningful length of time. They'll see it as a weakness of Ukraine and they'll just build up their forces again and attack. Any legitimate peace deal HAS to have the condition of Russia pulling out of all Ukrainian territory otherwise it'll completely legitimise nations to start wars to take land for themselves. Russia loses nothing by withdrawing. And you 100% know this, which is why tankies keep peddling it - they can claim to be on the moral high ground by saying "we want peace! everyone else are bloodthirsty monsters!" but in reality they know it'll just lead to more violence and genocide. Imagine calling the Allies blood thirsty monsters in WWII because they didn't accept a peace deal with Nazi Germany because they wanted it to end as fast as possible.
Nobody wants bloodshed. Ukraine didn't ask for this war. But they're not going to give up and let Russia get away with a land grab.
If by reasonable that you want Russia to win this war then yeah, sure.
Have you been sleeping for the last decades? There were plenty of wars. The US didn't stop them, in fact, the US started a bunch of them, and more were started by US allies, or waged with US help. The US supports illegal occupation ("taking land") all over, too.
So is there actually any norm anyone adheres to? Seems to me the actual norm is "don't do anything the US doesn't like". It's got nothing to do with starting wars or taking land.
no one tell this guy what a nation is it'll break his heart
This isn't a children's movie, there is no good guy in this war.
No one fucking wins, if Azov 'wins' then Ukraine will become even more of a Nazi shithole and a husk of an economy as the US calls in all its debts. If Russia 'wins' then it won't be much better off either.
Than advocate for peace talks instead of grinding more Ukrainians and Russians into paste, you bloodthirsty ghoul.
See? You do want bloodshed. You care more about dirt than human life.
There are only two outcomes of this war: A bloody long battle where innocent people get thrown in the meatgrinder regardless of which side comes out on top, or we get both sides to stop fighting and do peace talks so they can compromise and stop the killing as soon as possible. Nothing good will ever come out of this war. It needs to end as soon as possible to stop the bloodshed. The concern here should be stopping the loss of life as soon as possible, not caring about lines on a fucking map. For supposedly being pro-Ukraine, NATO sure loves killing Ukrainians.
Fuck off fascist warmonger
They (and you) are clearly supporting Russia.
If we're supporting capitalist Russia the same way NATO tools are supporting Nazi Ukraine then where are our comments saying we should send money and weapons to Russia to defeat the Ukrainian 'orcs', then? Show me where these pro-Russia comments are, I'll wait.
Get real, none of us have said anything in support of modern capitalist Russia. We're communists ffs, would we really support the thing that killed the Soviet Union? Use your head.
Next, you'll tell me that people against the war on terror in the Middle East were on the side of the Taliban.
They posted a Reuters article
Is that an evil tankie propaganda website now?
Ah but they posted the Reuters article maliciously. In a scheming, tankie sort of way.
Hilarious.
known tankie lmao
excellent contribution
like what?
Probably the conspiracy that the virus is still a pandemic and people are still dying and we should all wear masks, you know the truth

Yeah that's a silly article. Strange that a supposed "tankie" would post something that pushes the Chinese lab leak conspiracy though, especially from an outlet run by an NYT liberal like Bari Weiss.
tankies don't have coherent ideologies, or they wouldn't be tankies
Define tankie, or do you just go off of vibes and guesses without any coherent thoughts about your opponents yourself?
They're all competing to outdo this.
using disorders as an insult is ableist
Found the tankie
found the child
If age related insults are all you can come up with you can't be older than 20 lol
Your mommy help you come up with that comeback?
Yikes.
What's a tankie lol
Something like Stalinist communists. Usually used for non-Russians, but for some reason they love Russian imperialism.
