The only "defending Putin" I've seen in Left social media that's not explicitly contrarian is "Putin was backed into a corner and NATO forced his hand".
I've yet to see anyone seriously suggest this war in Ukraine is somehow a good thing. And I'd be surprised if that sentiment was tolerated in /r/GenZeDong, much less dominant.
Gonna be weird seeing the contrarian poisoning at a level that people are defending Putin...
I welcome the discussion. Better than a bunch of brain dead libs shouting "Putler bad" and "whataboutism" IMO.
Yeah there's at least a common framework with them and a chance to resolve some conflicts in good faith.
Something something Thesis Antithesis
(yeah there might be some struggle sessions but it could also be productive)
