I dunno why he hasn't returned to Russia. His family moved to Canada to flee Russia, and he's extremely rich, yet refuses to go back?

Never made sense to me moving to a country that lifts you out of poverty, and then you live in said country while saying how bad it is and how good your old poverty was.

[-] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 28 points 2 days ago

Yog is rich? Not very ML of them

[-] goat@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 days ago

Incredibly rich. he's in the one percent for canada.

[-] el_bhm@lemm.ee 8 points 2 days ago

Oh. He has a published book on Amazon.

[-] goat@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 days ago

so do thousands of robots

but yeah, i get your point

[-] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 13 points 2 days ago

That means nothing. It costs like $199 to self publish a book, and nothing if you so ebook-only

[-] el_bhm@lemm.ee 1 points 2 days ago

I know. But amazon big bad!

[-] boredtortoise@lemm.ee 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Lol what's the book

Edit did a Google is this some clojure dev who spends all this time spamming shit on an obscure forum??

[-] el_bhm@lemm.ee 22 points 2 days ago

He notoriously cries wolf after people hackle him over defending russia irl.

Keyboard warrior.

[-] psx_crab@lemmy.zip 19 points 2 days ago

He's rich? Then why can't the fuck he fund ML then, so not a single cent donated to lemmy would be used to fund propaganda instance. Shouldn't be a problem for him, he's a communist after all.

[-] goat@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 days ago

The rich aren't generous. And tankies aren't communist.

"I'm the most hetero, man, I can't stand what all those queers have done to this country" "Why do you get a little overly into wrestling when we watch and you have all these bodybuilder posters" "Shut up"

"I'm the smartest man alive man I'll tear anybody apart in a debate" "Why when Tricia started disagreeing with you did you absolutely flip your shit and hit the table and leave the party" "Shut up"

"My home country is the BEST, it is the best place to live and most goodest government on the planet or ever" "Why did your family leave then" "Shut up"

Why are you assuming money was stolen in Canada?

[-] goat@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 days ago

what?

[-] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org -3 points 2 days ago

Acquisition of capital is a crime ;)

[-] goat@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 days ago

Okay? I never mentioned stolen money though.

[-] Kurious84@eviltoast.org 25 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Russia doesn't win. They sacrifice their citizens in the thousands to "win". They are inferior but have larger numbers and lower morals and don't care how many die for putler. In that sense yes they will "win". Theyre forced to. No decent nation would do this.

[-] Panamalt@sh.itjust.works 31 points 2 days ago

Last I checked Russia was getting their ass handed to them by a much smaller and supposedly less equipped nation

[-] cm0002@lemmy.world 14 points 2 days ago

I think they're just riding off the high of a couple of wins Russia scored the other week and declaring it as a "total victory" LMAO

[-] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

Really weird that "winning" looks like oil refineries and weapons depots and manufacturers in their own country blowing up every other day. Would hate to see what losing looks like for Russia.

[-] Panamalt@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 days ago

That would make sense, they do that shit every other week, lol.

[-] PhilipTheBucket@ponder.cat 34 points 2 days ago

Europe: Hey we're going to put ground troops in Ukraine and absolutely wreck your shit unless you agree to the peace terms we decided on

Yogthos: OUT RAGE OUS HOW DARE

Buddy was claiming 8 months ago that Pokrovsk would be taken in the "near future" and the Kursk incursion would buy no more than a few months... Even with North Korean troops stationed in Kursk helping them reduce the need to split troops, Russian forces still haven't made it to Pokrovsk yet.

He said:

it’s not able to produce its own weapons

Ukraine is probably at the forefront of the world at this point in terms of producing combat drones.

They depend on the West for intelligence support, missiles and anti-air and the high-tech kit of the 20th century, and raw mass of ammunition. They're far from self-sufficient. But they are also set up to be a weapons-production powerhouse in the future if they survive the war in some independent form.

Edit: Also, Russia is outspending Ukraine+allies roughly ten to one in this war. They like to whine as if it is cheating for anyone to give Ukraine any help at all, as if the West is just propping up Ukraine with raw money power, but all the aid is doing is reducing that ratio down from 20-to-1 which it would be, to 10-to-1. The money level spent on the war is not the reason why they've been losing.

[-] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 13 points 2 days ago

it’s not able to produce its own weapons

Says the country using north Korean and Iranian weapons and soldiers.

[-] rockerface@lemm.ee 14 points 2 days ago

I wasn't aware you can get access to unlimited supply of copium in Canada

[-] SoftestSapphic@lemmy.world 12 points 2 days ago

But we should donate to these people or Lemmy dies!!!!

[-] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

If I was better at Rust or it was written in a better language, I'd spite fork it.

Welcome to MoG!

Meanwhile On Grad

Documenting hate speech, conspiracy theories, apologia/revisionism, and general tankie behaviour across the fediverse. Memes are welcome!

What is a Tankie?

Alternatively, a detailed blog post about Tankies.

(caution of biased source)

Basic Rules:

Sh.itjust.works Instance rules apply! If you are from other instances, please be mindful of the rules. β€” Basically, don't be a dick.

Hate-Speech β€” You should be familiar with this one already; practically all instances have the same rules on hate speech.

Apologia β€” (Using the Modern terminology for Apologia) No Defending, Denying, Justifying, Bolstering, or Differentiating authoritarian acts or endeavours, whether be a Pro-CCP viewpoint, Stalinism, Islamic Terrorism or any variation of Tankie Ideology.

Revisionism β€” No downplaying or denying atrocities past and present. Calling Tankies shills, foreign/federal agents, or bots also falls under this rule. Extremists exist. They are real. Do not call them shills or fake users as it handwaves their extremism.

Tankies can explain their views but may be criticised or attacked for them. Any slight infraction on the rules above will immediately earn a warning and possibly a ban.

Off-topic Discussion β€” Do not discuss unrelated topics to the point of derailing the thread. Stay focused on the direct content of the post as opposed to arguing.

You'll be warned if you're violating the instance and community rules. Continuing poor behaviour after being warned will result in a ban or removal of your comments. Bans typically only last 24 hours, but each subsequent infraction will double the amount. Depending on the content, the ban time may be increased. You may request an unban at any time.
