What I have learned:

  • Russia has already won the Ukraine war
  • Which NATO started
  • A lot of people in the West think that Ukraine should surrender
  • Also Ukraine was the world’s main provider of CSAM
  • Also Ukraine is exploited by the West but if they can unite with Russia then their economy and everything else will finally be alright

It’s literally like a bizarro world and everyone is over there agreeing with it. I’m genuinely confused by, who even are these people (what is the mixture of Russian bots / Russian-aligned ordinary people / confused Westerners / some other explanation.)

    More than once I have seen the same person express both “America is evil and the whole system needs to be destroyed” and also “Joe Biden is bad for the country and I can’t support him”, and asked the person, well if you think America is bad and Biden is harming the country, doesn’t that mean you should support him being in charge, so he can do more damage to this evil thing?

      No, they know that Donald is worse for the country. They want Donald in there so America collapses faster. They want China and Russia to expand.

        I don’t even think they are accelerationists at this point. I think they are all either information warfare operatives or useful idiots. The hexbear admin has essentially admitted to this.

          information warfare operatives or useful idiots.

          The latter. The former are likely all deployed on social media sites with a bigger market share than the fediverse.

            I’m not on Facebook but I assumed they just continue the flow of the Core Discussion we have here?

        And Hexbear gets really awkward when you call them out on wanting the Donald.
