I will never forget that piece of shit Matthew Miller shedding a tear for the poor children of Ukraine during the Russian Invasion and then shrugging and effectively saying " its war stuff happens" when confronted with the horrific massacre of children in Gaza by the Zionist regime.
The Empire is bipartisan.
Not surprising most people who downvoted this is a .world user and piefed.world users
how do you see vote sources?
Be an admin, or a moderator of the community the post/comment is in.
Im an admin on db0, I can see voting data
this whole community is pure liberal rage bait isn’t it? I am not complaining but you guys really do like to trigger
We’re gonna start cracking down on the rage-bait posting a little bit.
Honestly a bit of bait is good. I have enjoyed reading the discussions that emerged in some of those threads. I see this post for what it is: bait. You could make less provocative posts but even then some people just want to read it as tankie propaganda.
Maybe we should create a community called “tankie memes” for when you do want to go all out and trigger people
i’ve had the same thought before. lol
lemmy need reactions for things this lit
Fuck you for trash talking Ukraine and Palestine. It’s shitty to use the mass suffering of millions for internet points.
Also, elite rage bait, I’ve got the grimble grumbles now.
Wait how is he trash talking Palestine? This meme is criticizing how military actions of the Palestinian resistance are portrayed in the media. It’s clearly a pro-palestinian meme.
It reduces the horrors of conflict down to binary of ‘my team good, your team bad’ which I get us the point but it’s unfair (imo) to equate the actions of oppressed/attacked states to the massively powerful imperial states. Maybe my interpretation is fucked up but my first glance at this meme triggered my bleeding heart.
Right, but how does it trash talk Palestine though?
In the same way it does Ukraine
So you didn’t get the meme.
I thought the meme implies an inverse and was deeper than just west bashing. Mb.
What did you think it implied?
fuck ukraine
Yeah he got u
Oh boy did they hahah, got dragged in the replies too dammit. Ahh oh well, such is the internet.
LOL don’t think you got it.
I don’t think the sufferings of either Ukrainians or Palestinians are related to this meme.
It’s about the media, and I am furious when Ukraine and Israel wrongdoings are justified

Ukraine got couped by the US in 2014, the current government is completely illegitimate, Russia would be doing them a favor by taking over and chasing us out

I’m sure the relatives of the innocent civilian victims will agree with you and thank Putin for bombing them.
Cool story
Badass bro. Nothing screams “I don’t care” like posting this 😂😂
Russia doesn’t bomb civilians unlike ukraine.
And it saved a lot of innocent civilian victims from being ethnic cleansed.
As they had been trying to do since the 2014 coup.
But again the same double standards, the west didn’t really care about what their proxy nazi’s did to them.They killed civilians. I have a friend who has a relative killed.
These things happen in war unfortunately.
When there are attacks with 500+ of drones and many missiles per day with only a handful of civilian casualties it’s pretty clear that they are not ‘targeting civilians and wanting to make as many casualties as possible’ as the western propaganda claim.
Unlike ukrainians that deliberately target civilian infrastructure, from schools to hospitals.I don’t think the main target is civilians, I think they have better targets (strategically speaking), you are right in this
The comment @TDSOJohn@lemmy.world was replying was about “doing them a favor”. I don’t think any sane Ukrainian would say “thanks” for what Russia is doing.
Unlike ukrainians that deliberately target civilian infrastructure, from schools to hospitals.
It’s a bit of a stretch. Both sides did similar things.
No, there is no denying the difference, they are not the same.
My comment is based on facts.
I’m sure the relatives of the 14,000 people killed by Ukranian nazis before Russia entered the war would love to hear your justifications for it.
Justifications? Every kill is bad wtf are u even talking about 😂😂😂
“Every kill is bad I just happen to only equivocate and make excuses when it’s Russian people dying”
This is lemmy.ml vro
Is it the place where people stop using their brains? O.O sorry first time here lol
I’ve been under the impression it’s sort of a “tankie” place that glorifies enemies of the USA indiscriminately. So saying bad things about Putin will get you downvoted
Thanks for the info, seems to be the case 😅 will definitely refrain from commenting more here
Here you get FACTS, not simply western propaganda.
You’re welcome to go to some right-wing circle jerk (which is most of .world) and stay in your bubble if you can’t handle that.
Most of the rabid McCarthyists get angry immediately when they invariably lose the discussion against knowledgeable people and resort to vulgar insults.
On par with their beliefs.
Top tier meme lumping Russia with Palestine
In my opinion, war is always full of crime. You can have crime without war, but you can’t have war without crime. If by “war crime” you mean Geneva convention, nobody follows that, either.
The winner prosecutes the loser, no exceptions.
This is the rhetoric western imperialists use to normalise their atrocities
Tell me that you dont understand anything of world politics without telling me that you dont understand anything of world politics.
typical firebombing enjoyer
Same to you
Go back to Reddit
Every time I see such memes, I remind myself that lemmy.ml is blocked in:
-
China (including Hong Kong)
-
Iran
-
North Korea
It is currently unblocked in:
-
The United States
-
Israel (and Palestine)
-
Ukraine
-
EU
-
Pretty much the rest of the world
-
Russia
Though I worry about Russia, as they’ve already blocked Bluesky and at least one part of the fediverse: https://lemmy.world/post/14156170
(And FYI I checked these regions myself, with a VPN, and then when another external tool, just now).
Because blocking web sites is worse than bombing civilians for decades, right?
Cool story
Check yourself. Go to any IP tester or http resolver, or try your own VPN.
Because lemmy.ml federates with the broader Lemmyverse. So if instances like .world is blocked, that same content is visible on .ml so it’s blocked too.
Defederate from us and we might have a chance.
As of this post, Lemmy.world is not blocked in China. Neither is piefed.social.
But lemmy.ml is blocked in China.
Interesting, TIL.
I browsed lemmy.ml plenty in China. Not sure what you’re on about.
now do the Russian channels that are blocked in the west.
Like what? RT is not blocked for me; I read an article from there once in awhile. Neither is the Russian government website or anything else I can think to test.
Well it is for me in Europe, same as plenty of other channels.
I guess Big Brother decided for us that we can only get one narrative.
