The comment chain is claiming that Russia would be more trigger happy than israel to start WW3 which is a pretty lib take even I wouldn’t agree with. It having downvotes is not strange, though I did not personally downvote them.
But the most important point is that they are not getting censored, banned. Which really dispels the illusion that it’s just a giant tankie fest over there.
The reason most people seem to catch bans from .ml is because they go full lib mode when they see something that conflicts with some WMD propaganda they’ve been consuming for the past 25 years and call anything to the left of them a tankie.
ML is more defined by anti imperialism but doesn’t magically condone it when China or Russia do the imperialism as well. You can find some actual tankies in there but they’re usually swimming in down votes. The average lib that finds out that America hasn’t exactly been the good guys for the past 50+ years just seems to think that everyone criticizing it is a tankie.
Lemmygrad and Hexbear have such an anti West boner that they are often willing to close their eyes and ignore the faults of parties. They are not really comparable.

‘A pretty lib take’
Fucking what

… is that the only criteria for a tankie fest? Here I thought the criteria was being overrun with fucking tankies.
And in any case, the propensity of the ml admins to censor anything vaguely anti-China as ‘sinophobia’ is well-recorded.

That’s complete bull. Anytime I go over there on a pertinent issue one of the top comments is always some tankie or another getting upvotes because he used the popular buzzword of the day.
You think Russia is more trigger happy than israel?
I think Russia has a tendency to pull triggers on bigger guns than Israel does. If Israel starts WW3, it will be by provoking someone into invading them. If Russia starts WW3, it will be BY invading someone.
The likelihood of Putin actually attacking a NATO country is very small.
Yeah, that’s what we said about him doing a full-scale invasion of Ukraine as well.

No there were like a gazillion warnings from Putin that he was trying to annex Ukraine. He already annexed Crimea in 2014.
He was also very >:( that Ukraine was trying to join NATO. But as long as Ukraine was not in NATO yet he could still attack it.

Yes but they are not playing with daddy Bidens house money that will somehow protect them despite israel doing the most insane shit. Like some trailer trash parent that refuses to discipline their child in any way and the child just getting more and more extreme. They are currently actively trying to drag America into a war with Iran. Israel is literally trying to start WW3 with everything in their might right now. This is a really weird point in time to claim Russia is more likely to start WW3.
Russian imperialism actually requires them to think whether they can steal certain land instead of getting bombed to rubble. Sure they have a big army but they absolutely cannot handle a war with NATO. Invading Ukraine would be nothing like invading NATO. Which is why we did the Cold War thing before.

You think Russia is more trigger happy than israel? Israel is basically begging to start WW3.
