Yes, criticism of modern Russia under a literal autocrat is big time “moralistic virtue signalling”.
If you're an American, YES, especially if you neglect intentionally or otherwise to pair said criticism with the context of HOW and WHY Putin came to power
The motherland is dead and gone and any leftist ought rightfully to criticise the current apparatus of power and corruption in Russia.
Ok and? You do realize you have absolutely zero moral, political, or social clout to effect change in Russia, again moralistic virtue signalling
Even mentioning Russia in the same breath as China and Bolivia is completely asinine.
How about mentioning Russia in the context of NATO, is that asinine? Or is agitating for a Second Russian collapse in the span of 30 years somehow "woke" now?
This is as simple as accepting that critical thought ought to be levelled at media and it’s not doing an imperialism to do so. You don’t need to do a screed to justify every point of contention.
Funny, you're kneejerk hysterics about foreign dictators reminded me more of "2013 Atheist YouTube"
This is as simple as accepting that critical thought
LMAO what "critical thought" have you actually leveled russiagator? I can read your dogshit screed on any thread in r/politics, here's an idea, come up with a take about Russia where you don't sound like a Jake Tapper sockpuppet
This is insufferable
That is literally a baseline take that even a radlib like Chomsky appreciates, how the fuck is that remotely "iNsUfFeRaBle"
Moralistic virtue signaling about dictators your country helped bring to power will always remain the actual insufferable position, sorry

Nice misquote bro.
You’re fighting with an enemy that doesn’t exist.
I’m literally not from the US, and have no support for Russiagate conspiracies. But your boy up there is failing to take a stance beyond
West = US = Imperialism = bad
:. Anything not the West = not the US = not imperialism = good and to be trusted
uh, huh cool story love, absolutely riveting
:ohnoes: oh shit my boy didn't take a "STANCE"
Yesssss? That is objectively correct, not seeing the issue here
fucks sake just forward your application to CNN already
Also question, do you believe the Ukraine should invade Crimea with the aid of NATO?
This is unproductive, you can quote my posts piece by piece and add your irony poisoned retorts if it makes you feel better about your day.
But I don’t see this going any further than that, and since this is a shared left space rather than reddit we should leave it at that.
