I get this is the silliest thing to be concerned about right now with everything going on, but it does feel like the hawks scored a point here in the market place of ideas. Trying to add any context to the shitty situation in Eastern Europe is gonna come off as Putin apologia. I feel like it used to be a bit easier to pill Libs on being anti-war by putting to the USs fuck. But now that a country the hawks hated did a thing they predicted he’d do, well…
this happens every war. Liberals insuffferably claim to be antiwar normally and earnestly believe that to be true despite being in favour of every war the state department tells them to be.
focus on the fact that us militarily intervening in Ukraine would make everything worse for everyone and that they said they had to invade Iraq to secure peace as well
when do we start voice recording all these motherfuckers and playing their horrible-in-hindsight statements on loop every time these fuckers bang the war drum, like, even on a personal level
well they did record themselves saying it on the news and that footage is available
yeah but that was aaaaages ago sweaty. what, you want to look into what people have actually said from like a month ago? fucking tankie shill don't you know that history began yesterday
At this point I’m pretty sure that “Tankie” does just mean “Has a historical perspective longer than a week ago”
