I noticed a few of them posting Russian propaganda the other day. Nothing of value was lost.
They absolutely do. They are freaks of nature.
Essentially communists who support the war crimes committed in Ukriane and the idea of Russian imperialism since it somehow in their twisted little minds equates to a Soviet Union born again.
Wrap your head around that.
I still just don't understand why they defend Russia or China, I don't think there's a single state mechanism you can point to that's truly functionally communistic.
They get it into their heads that they're smarter than everyone else because they have views that aren't popular, and shut out any evidence that their views might just be wrong and actively harmful.
That and “look at the full video of the ‘tank man’ he obviously survived and nothing happened that day!”
He did
The point was that the message was the larger “it’s all just Western propaganda” and apparently nothing else happened.
