As so was his irrelevancy in the general landscape of Russian politics.

Ad scandinavicum: point out your opponent's Swedish/Norwegian/Danish nationality to immediately obliterate them.

Jokes aside: Scandinavians are overall nice fellas but damn it, they are also not only some of the people most pleased with bourgeois order that I know of, but also completely politically illiterate. Just search on Quora for people asking if Norway, Sweden or Denmark should keep their monarchies and look at their defenses to keep them around on the replies.

Russia is a fascist reactionary dictatorship

People will now resort to label any country that opposes the west as a dictatorship (and not in the marxist sense), even if it openly celebrates bourgeois elections every 6 years.

Inb4 "but they are rigged!!1!"

So are they everywhere else, either by limiting by design the choices (see: USA) or by limiting the powers that democracy grants to the people. You seem to be Swedish: you cannot even choose your own head of state.

Edit: my country constantly suffers from scandals every election in which governing parties shove thousands of fake votes by mail into the system and no one has ever called it a dictatorship simply because it is part of The West™.

Defang. Similar to the "BLM street" acts of void symbolism done during the last years of Trump's presidency.

Since when is "rabid dog" an antisemitic dogwhistle? Or is any criticism of Israel written with the use of literary devices to be labelled as an antisemitic dogwhistle?

I find that, more often that not, the people who say those words will later proceed to disproportionally condemn only one of those things and bother themselves little with the other. "Both China and the US can be bad", they say, and then proceed to spend infinitely more energy and time condemning the former and barely acknowledging the latter. Empty words, nothing more.

"Hey Ukraine hows it goin?"

Reports say that Ukraine is losing more than 1,000 men a day – sometimes close to 2,000

From having up to 25% of the vote in some oblasts and 115.000 members to being banned, having their symbols forbidden and their leaders arrested, in the span of just 3 years. What happened to the KPU was a tragedy.
