This is the first time I have seen a comment with more than 100 downvotes (it is honestly astounding). Oh, also, hello peeps from the past!
Edit: How did libs invade this place? So many downvotes from liberals.
We have an influx of Liberandus here on lemmygrad too. Let’s deprogram.
I think on Lemmygrad we should really be proactive with banning.
only when subjects don’t show any improvements and are persistent with same old attitude of – “not gonna get it”.
Or a proactive ban in case downvote rates surpass 30%.
Yeah for sure, if people are just lacking education and are willing to learn then we should do everything to help them out. We just need to keep the trolls out.
Would it be ok if down voted and upvoted posts were visible to mods as per “our instance our rule” or it would look/go bad for community?
It would to keep trolls and - only trolls - out without any false positives.
hard to say, but I think reporting is really the tool for this, when we see people acting like trolls then we report and that should be that
And then when you say you don’t support Ukraine, you’re the Nazi.
that’s right, people who don’t support literal nazis are actually nazis
Wait. You guys spread putins propaganda? Rly?
You guys spread putins propaganda?
Western media used to spread Putin propaganda before February 2022 too, look.
Wait. You spread bidens propaganda? Rly?
No investigation, no right to speak
Unless you have investigated a problem, you will be deprived of the right to speak on it. Isn’t that too harsh? Not in the least. When you have not probed into a problem, into the present facts and its past history, and know nothing of its essentials, whatever you say about it will undoubtedly be nonsense. Talking nonsense solves no problems, as everyone knows, so why is it unjust to deprive you of the right to speak? Quite a few comrades always keep their eyes shut and talk nonsense, and for a Communist that is disgraceful. How can a Communist keep their eyes shut and talk nonsense?
It won’ t do!
It won’t do!
You must investigate!
You must not talk nonsense!
I mean the Azov Batallion is a nazi organization. This is commonly accepted knowledge and a result of Stepan Bandera (a nazi who wanted independence from the Soviet Union) being the primary driver of nationalist sentiment in Ukraine. The western media just want to pretend like the fact that they ‘only’ run the propaganda for the National Guard isn’t bad enough to make every soldier a nazi.
…And that’s a fair point but irrelevant to whether the Ukrainian military has fascist sympathies. Imperialist wars are always motivated by capitalist interests and fought with the blood of workers. The question is who’s material interests those workers are serving, wittingly or no. The Ukrainian ministry is giving a lot of power very specifically to the tiny militia of Azov Batallion which I think answers that question.
Finally, yes it’s also Russian propaganda but that says more about the west than Russia. If the Kremlin can invade a country and make itself look like it has the moral highground while doing it using commonly accepted facts you really fucked up. They might not be on the right side of history, but you are on the really really far outer edge of the wrong side of it.
I think the first question you should ask yourself is why do you think Putin spreads propaganda, but the western media spreads the truth and facts?
Ukraine has a serious Nazi problem. You’re going to have to grow up and learn to deal with the real world.
The world has a serious nazi problem. Russia has way bigger nazi problems. Poland is run by the PiS, nazis.
You wanna see the real world honey? Nazis are all over, and it just helps the facist putin to support his claim of nazis in Ukraine
Show me anywhere in the world that has open Nazi units serving in the military.
Show me anywhere in the world that openly celebrates Nazis as national holidays.
Show me anywhere in the world that renames streets, shopping malls, stadiums after Nazis.
Show me anywhere in the world that runs Nazi indoctrination camps for children.
I can show you all of these for Ukraine.
Over to you. Darling.
Show me anywhere in the world that openly celebrates Nazis as national holidays.
Latvia comes immediately to mind, which coincidentally is one of the most zealous supporters of Ukraine and USA.
All of the Balkans do that too. Croatia, Bosnia and Serbia have open nazis and fascists serving and commanding their militaries. Croats after the Ustaše, Bosniaks too. Serbs on the other hand glorify the Chetniks, rehabilitate mass murderers and anti-communist war criminals (rehabilitated Nikola Kalabic a few days ago as we speak). There is no city in Bosnia that has not got a street, school or sport club named after a Ustaša, or a Chetnik or a Bosniak radical muslim fascist. That doesn’t only happen in Ukraine. Greece, Bulgaria, Romania they all do it too.

I really wonder how that came to be, don’t click here it has nothing to do with it ;)
The world has a serious nazi problem
Agreed, but some countries have it worse than others. I’m sure there’s some nazoids lurking around in the shadows in China or Vietnam, but the issue in Ukraine is that they are in the government and have a pretty significant representation in the army.

Russia has way bigger nazi problems
Russia is pretty far from perfect and people who idolize Putin are lost, but in this regard they are leagues above Ukraine.
