I got banned from /c/news by some anonymous coward for reporting a Z weirdo reactionary who was cynically coopting anti-imperialist language. You can find the details in my post history.

The admins here can't tell actual anti-imperialism from right-wing trolls who know just enough leftist rhetoric to get by because they haven't actually read Settlers.

      There isn't more than 1000 people in the entire anglo internet that believe that Putin will bring back the USSR so what actual more numerous group are you Strawmaning here? People that take a side against their own imperial bloc (us/west/NATO) and wish for the most immediate end to the war by Ukraine surrendering and negotiating?

          No? It's just worthless to pretend it's a bigger problem than it actually is. Especially when this kind of Strawmaning you just wrote is used to attack 100 times more leftists than that as Putin loving tankies just cause they don't support NATO or ukraine

            Nothing on this site has any impact on the real world. Me shitting on some losers is as effective as what the losers themselves are saying. As in, not at all.

              You are shitting on no one cause there simply isn't a single person reading this threads that your dunk applies to and there is probably not a single digit number of them in this site in general.
