What on earth are you talking about?????
Usa, it's the empire. It couped ukraine's government in 2014 and replaced them with nuland's handpicked compradors
How can that be true if I don't want it to be?
The Ukraine government proper was overthrown by the US empire in 2014 for the crime of being friendly with Russia (among other reasons) and then the empire propped up a Nazi regime that spreads Russo-phobia among its populace
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
What a fucking joke!
The maidan coup is a straight up fact. Only sounds wild to you because you're so deep in a propaganda bubble that you're hearing it for the first time through a forum comment 11 years late.
Nice sources commie but have you considered that I can't hear you and Putler is a poopyhead and you probably want to kiss him on the mouth?
So I actually took the time to read those articles and watch the video. Now I'm not well informed on past Ukrainian politics, but none of them talk of Zelensky. Which I think was elected democratically and not put in power via a coup.
And honestly, if I had to pick between a pro-Russian and a pro-US government in that area of the world, I'd pick a pro US one for sure. It's the least worst choice.
Yes, Zelensky was democratically elected on a platform of peace & reconciliation. Unfortunately he wasn’t able to deliver on those promises, because as soon as he got into office, the fascists made it clear that they’d kill him if he did deliver, and the pressure they put on him to get what they want continues.
Zelensky was in no way qualified for the job. He was a comedian who played the president on TV. It was a wildly popular show. It’s like if Martin Sheen ran for president after The West Wing. He was basically groomed & funded by a Ukrainian oligarch to play a TV president and then run for president. Ukraine has long been considered the most corrupt nation in Europe.
His presidential term ended over a year ago, and the longer the election is postponed, the less legitimate he will appear.
I'm sorry but all of that is a big ass load of bullshit. No matter how you try to sugarcoat it.
First you talk about a coup, then you say it isn't. Then you attack Zelensky because he was an actor, completely disregarding what he's been able to do with the difficult situation he's in. Arnold Schwarzenegger was also an actor but was a great politician and was a great governor for California as far as Republicans go. So that's not a good reason to discredit someone. In fact, anybody can go into politics and become great.
His presidential term may have ended a year ago, but how the fuck do you conduct an election when a chunk of your country is under foreign occupation? There are usually measures in place in constitutions for times of war, and guess what? THEY'RE AT WAR!
I tried to keep an open mind about this and your article and watched your videos, but you're over the edge. You're irrational. I'm not gonna have this argument anymore. I'm done.
I imagine this drafted up real nice in your head, but no using the thought termination word is in fact not a zinger.
I knew I was gonna find one of those galaxy brain libs in here lol.
You're on a platform made by communists, there are a lot of us here. Deliberately breaking the rules does get your comments removed.
The communist communities came first shithead.
Do you think FOSS means the software magically appears without anyone creating it? You do, don't you, you fucking idiot. Lemmy, the open-source project to make a reddit-like social media platform was invented and coded by communists. This is a well known fact. But you have made it very clear you have no problem denying reality so long as it fits your cringy, simplistic beliefs.
Do you think Linux is a Finnish software because it was created bh Linus Torvalds? No!? Because that's not how FOSS work
Why yes, yes I do think Linux was originally created by a Finnish person. This is the comment you said was "dead wrong":
This is not "dead wrong," this is a fact. One you're tried (and failed) to deny so now you're moving the goalposts. It's so fucking obvious I don't know why you would want to keep digging yourself into a deeper hole. It's funny to watch, though. Lemmy does not just "happen to be federated with communist communities." Lemmy was made. by. communists. And now others, including some right wing dipshits (not unlike yourself), are using it as well. The complete opposite of how you were trying to paint the situation.
That's not the point being argued at all. Linus Torvalds is a bit of a lib (though he has said some cool things over the years, not enough to outweigh his attitude towards Russian maintainers); the Linux community is itself full of libs. I've learned to live with that. I accept that. Why must you be a little piss baby about the Lemmy community having lots of communists when we all can clearly see it was made by communists to make sure there was a space for communists to exist online?
The lead developers of Lemmy are communists. This is not "dead wrong." Further, the communist instances are older than most of the right-wing instances. You're free to complain about communists all you want, there are instances where that's the norm, but there are instances where the opposite is the norm, like the one you're visiting right now.
"I shit my pants and I still think it smells good! Stop clearing the room of my stench you commie SOB."
Wow... what a great way to own us.
I just saw this comment. But you... you are the one who shit your pants, but thankfully the mods removed your comment so we didn't have to keep hearing about it. You can't even follow what's happening in a thread. /facepalm.
lol
Of course! We forgot that the only correct policy towards Banderite Nazi sympathizers is appeasement
Friend you just need to break free of the west propaganda machine and you will begin to see the truth
