This has happened to me on Lemmy and Reddit too. I forget what it was I said - an instance where it seemed to me Russia was technically in the right about something - and there was a big old pile on and many downvotes. I think the assumption was “agree with Russia on anything and you’re wrong about everything”
As usual the libs are projecting when they talk about leftists defending every single thing a country does. The reality is that they want everything a US rival does to be bad, every single time, and if you step away from that, no matter the objective facts, you’re a “tankie.”
I’m Russian for wanting the war in Ukraine to end, I’m Russian for citing American news sources about it, and I am apparently in a gay relationship with Vladmir Putin himself for pointing out well-documented Cold War history. I don’t know how or when Russia laid claim to all this stuff, but at this point I’ve got to respect their hustle.
I’m Russian cause they’d shoot me if I traveled there to revoke my citizenship.

tbh, don’t believe any of the shit Russia says. It’s all lies and propaganda, so even if what they say seems to make sense, their actions do not follow. It’s horrible how their news channels report on the war and what kind of paranoid brainworms they have inflicted on my family :/
Who still has an X account 😂?
Russians.
Also, idiots…
and bots
Don’t forget bots
According to X users, those are always Russian too. However, in reality…
