Comment on Dethroning lemmy.ml, lemm.ee rises as the second most active instance
MattsAlt@hexbear.net 1 year agoIt’s funny how for those who Hexbear is to their left, always use the critique of “they’re crazy” then compare us to right wingers without fail.
Absolutely no actual critique and the typical liberal understanding of politics that “there are only two teams, and if you’re not on mine then you’re on theirs”
Please read a book
I’ve seen posts of Hexbears saying they’ll vote for Trump, with no pushback from anyone else.
I had a Hexbear today tell me that it’s okay that Russian soldiers rape women and children in Ukraine because ML’s support violence for their cause and that’s just how it is.
It’s a small minority of Hexbears who hold abhorrent positions, but the rest of Hexbears tolerate them.
Does that particular Hexbear know that raping is wrong?
What I suspect the Hexbear will tell you is that NATO has committed large scale crimes and NATO soldiers have also raped women, you just won’t hear about it on western media because it doesn’t fit their imperialist propaganda narrative.
That’s when you need to bring out the big eye roll emojis

Thats because a lot of lemmy users see right wing as being evil.
The reality is the right is not evil. Supporting genocidal dictators like Stalin and Mao is.

He sourcing from a book fairly widely discredited by academics. Adding on to the wildly discredited notion that the Soviet famine was intentional. Like this is literally cold war propaganda people were partying in the 80s. Embarrassing

He genocided his own ethnic group?
