Enough has been said about these idiots, but still. It’s wild to see it in the wild and just see how little they care about nazism unless they do a whataboutism :maybe-later-kiddo: about Russia. Could it possible - that an Eastern Europe devastated by the collapse of the USSR be filled with manipulative and “rebellious” fascists? No of course not. It’s Russia who were secretly Nazi the whole time

      you're absolutely right. I had a hard time picturing what Lenin meant by the "social-chauvinists" for a long time. How could self-identifying socialists spin on a dime like that and become vocal imperialists? Then I watched as Biden got elected and half the leftist I knew became libs again.

        I used to be pretty skeptical of people in the runup to 2020 cheering hard against Biden since he would severely temper the energy that had been built up by Bernie and general anti-Trump-ness. Many reasons to cheer against Biden ofc (although I still am not cool with the "Trump would actually be better" game cause it doesn't matter anyway), and I knew it would have an effect, but they weren't just half right they were pretty much 90+% right.
