Some communities there are literally calling for the annihilation of Ukraine

edit: Since people are either willfully or otherwose are missing my point, this is a pro-russia, pro-fascist hate group, therefore we shouldn't give them the platform to spread their shit. this is not about me seeing their community or then causing issues accross other communities, it's about de-platforming fascists.

The link for the original doesn't seem to work. I assume there's some missing context here. Still funny that they're calling hexbear pro-Russia and fascist. The comment isn't even by a hexbear. It's by one of ours.

    You'd think it was just western schooling, but nope. I've heard the whole "Putin is building USSR 2.0" from people in Russia. From adult people. Adult people who had actually lived in USSR. In a negative key. Yeah

      I would love to live in the world that libs think they inhabit.

      TBF they could be referring to the fact that the Ukrainian conflict is slowly but actively weakening imperialism globally, which lays the groundwork for the USSR's return. They probably don't mean this when they say Putin's building USSR 2.0—why would they say Putin is doing it—but I like to be optimistic.

        I like your optimism. No. That's not even close to what is usually meant.

        I think it would be funny if Russia, under Putin or someone else, just stumbled into USSR 2.0. That they get there not because they meant to, but because they started to adopt some of the practical things China's doing with development and the economy, and they one day find themselves back in the USSR.

        It would certainly be a historic coinkydink.
