      But I am very offended by talking about not funding ukrainian neo nazis as a fifth generation Ukrainian-American immigrant, have you considered this?

      Also I have never been to Ukraine. Also also Ukrainians are POC and it is racist to make fun of them.

      I literally saw the last take on twitter and I momentarily wanted to build a mail bomb.

          everyone dogpiled and bullied them right? right?

          edit: the thread was DMed to me and I’m reading it. This is embarrassing.

          edit 2: they admit they were wrong in post comments. they should not be bullied now but their discomfort with the civil war is not a reason to not talk about ukraine or the fash government.

            it was like 130 upvotes. i saw the slavs are poc comment in the thread and as a czech i find that shit so hilarious. i look like some sort of poster girl for the ideal white tradwife and you think im being racially discriminated against cause my last name is vaguely slavic? get a grip

            like eastern europe as a whole has been fucked over historically with some racial shit added on top, but it was always about the economics with racism tagged on. a slav in america that speaks fluent english will be under everyones radar, even more so if you just change your last name

              the person who commented that was either a troll or an idiot, but either way that take was racist. slavs are crackers in America. At most I get vodka and communism jokes when I’m in the US and I have an accent.

              I just rage posted in there for a half hour and I’m done. Fucking disgusting.

              It’s good the mods didn’t respond.

            I made a comment that it must have been a bit, but after reading the supportive comments in the thread, I deleted because I didn't want to deal with it. Maybe I shouldn't have.

            The post literally ends with

            Edit: I’m sorry for not including I’m not living in Ukraine but my family came to the US as refugees.

            Like how is that not a bit?

            What upsets you? Someone actually from a country not wanting a third generation American to speak for them?

              What upsets me is that no one here seems to understand that your cruelty begets cruelty and that you are fundamentally indecent to one another.

                Indecent to whom, Nazis?

                Being cruel to whom, Nazis?

                I am so confused by your comment. What are you even trying to say? Who are you referring to?

                If you're talking about the OP of that thread, they deserve the shit that they got. An American pretending to be someone from a foreign country to elevate their opinion is not okay.

                If you're talking about the Ukrainians, literally no one is wishing ill on the common people of the Ukraine. The ill-will is completely directed at the Nazis that couped the Ukraine in 2014 and persecuted and oppress minorities in the country. It's completely okay to be cruel to Nazis. They would do 10,000x worse to you if they could.

                It is hard for patience because my country is being attacked by America and every other website is cheering on neonazis with American guns firing American bullets at Ukrainian people.

                I will disengage now because this post is about trans rights and not Ukraine. Civility politics is privilege.

        The left doesn't discriminate, fascists of all races and religions will get a bullet to the skull.
