can’t condemn Russia’s actions without resorting to whataboutism, false equivalence, or highlighting wrongdoing or hypocrisy by the US or some other Western country, then you’re not on the right side.
... what? Why is wrong to highlight precedence? This is how the court often argues in favor of someone's innocence or guilt, by looking at the precedence. If defendant A was found not guilty 10 years ago for a crime, and no law has been modified, then defendant B should also be found not guilty if they committed the same exact crime under the same circumstances. That doesn't mean it's just, but we're not the ones deciding the laws; we're just analyzing them.
[Aaron Mate was] systematically demolished by the refreshingly pugilistic Kyiv Post editor Bohdan Nahaylo, who dismissed him as a “Russian propagandist.”
wow, such a systematic demolition after Mate laid out a probably pretty good explanation, I didn't watch the video in question
Liberals have zero ability at functioning in the real world. For them everything us a child's fairy tale.
i mean they read animal farm to learn about the USSR. Animal farm's literally titled "A fairy tale"
Well the teacher told them to read it in shcool but they used the cliff notes to pass the test
that's fine because there's a CIA funded animated version of Animal Farm (1954).
Had to look it up because I thought you might be joking, but in my heart I knew you weren't.
i cant believe an obscure eurocommunist term from the 50s has now become part of the hegemonic liberal discourse.
The only evidence you should need to know that tankies like Glenn Greenwald are finished.

It's an old tactic. Redefine a negative label and attach it to people you don't like. It works great. It gets used all the time to tag the right with derogatory terms, now it's being used on the left. Well, if Glenn Greenwald is a leftist.
