I am genuinely confused by hexbear too

Is it a site for queer people or for beanis lovers?

    What the fuck even was the disinformatsiya kompromot bs? Like what was that moment in cultural history? Somehow all the western media flacks got together and decided to make "disinformation" and "compromising information/blackmail" in to spooky exotic secrets of the inscrutable slavorient and people just accepted that and what the fuck?

    Politics has always been sily but i don't recall the libs being as found of these absurd theatrical performances in the past. Probably just biased memory, but still it's fucking strange

      they also made whataboutism into a spooky "soviet era kgb tactic" despite 1) literally always being used to benefit the west and 2) literally being invented by the British to do the same thing during the troubles in northern Ireland (accusing the Irish of 'whataboutery' whenever British atrocities were mentioned)

      No you're right, they used the spooky foreign term to sway people. Why do you think it's always called Das Kapital instead of Capital? Foreign bad

      When I was watching Russiagate evolve in subreddits like r/politics back in 2015, I kept seeing Soviet defector and KGB agent Yuri Bezmenov mentioned. He gave a series of talks about Soviet information warfare with the same kind of conspiratorial angle. It allowed liberals to make sense of their republican friends being unhinged fascists and leftists criticising the democrats. Actually their friends aren't bad people and they aren't a bad person by association, it's just the sneaky Asiatic mental magick hypnotising them through facebook memes. Words like disinformation let them feel cool like NAFO goobers use defense buzzwords, and you see the terminal result of that in real specimens like /u/Olivermarkusmalloy.
