I made the mistake of balking at some particularly unhinged Ukraine/Russia rhetoric offline yesterday and got called a vatnik, a tankie, a Russia lover and I was even suspected of being pro-Israel and apparently a nazbol Aimee Therese follower or something

I'm not even invested in this shit, I just find the insane saber-rattling and warmongering unsettling desolate

When someone tells you Putler's going to invade Estonia, Poland and Finland for Lebensraum next if he's not stopped in Ukraine, just nod your head solemnly

    That's not true. Unless the person is also very online I don't think they say this shit. Most people I talk don't really disagree with ukraine being a burgerland proxy war or its long effort of building up nazi holocaust criminals and their organizations.

      Unfortunately every time I've had people IRL bring up the topic of Ukraine it's always been about how Putin is crazy and has to be stopped

      I might just have bad luck
