I'm getting really loving tired of pathetically insulated american tankies waltzing into the thread spewing hateful ignorant poo poo about Europe and worrying more about iconography on a few soldiers they are digging out from random web searches than a literal 20th century style imperialistic genocidal invasion being carried out.

There is not moral ambiguity here you loving poo poo-stains. There is no "both-sides" argument to be had, at all.


The fact that you only show up to stir poo poo in the thread when your chosen side of actual real fascists take a beating show off your true allegiance.


Go to hell you loving smooth brained fascist enablers.

I am not sure whether someone from Europe would understand Pro-Europeanism as something Nazi.

Unless it's some complete idiot. Like someone who justifies inaction when children are bombed because there are some Nazis in the military. In which case, you might be right.

No European would think "pro-european" is some kind of coded language for white supremacy lmao

Plus, European tankies generally gravitate towards the ~peace now, at any cost!~ messaging in Russian propaganda. American tankies prefer to go for the "America First!" talking points. Yes, it's hard to tell them apart sometimes, but a good tankologist can usually spot the subtle differences

I won't deny its an assumption on my end, but most goons on here are Americans, the time for when he posted seemed to be at an American timezone and his rhetoric sounded very american tankie (calling us all liberals is a dead give-away for one, since i don't think he means center-right liberalism which is a distinct thing here in Europe).


But fair enough, lovely smooth brains morons exist everywhere. I've just been exposed to more american tankies on this site than european ones.

1 new LHD based on the Navantia Juan Carlos I/Canberra design but geared towards being a drone carrier, 8 modernised Oliver Hazard Perry clas frigates, 8 MEKO 200 based frigates with a variety of modernisation standards, a dozen old type 209 submarines, 4 newish indigenous corvettes, and a brand new indigenous multirole frigate that is due to be commissioned in a couple months, all of them fitted with about the standard NATO gear found around the world.

So likely, yes.

Joking aside, one thing you do see a lot of tankie hand-wringing about Ukraine's future crimes. Such as how they will inevitably form a nazi regime. How they will inevitably ethnically cleanse Crimea and the Donbass. How they will inevitably destroy all worker rights and sign the country over to (((rootless cosmopolitan IMF bankers)))

I mean, we all know Ukraine isn't perfect. There are sadly some actual Ukrainian crimes that they could probably point to. But the problem is that the ones that do exist pale in scope and magnitude compared to Russia's, so they have to fabricate ones for their arguments to make sense.

Its an implicit admission that their own arguments are intellectually and morally bankrupt - because at best all they can do is point to theoretical *potential* future Ukrainian crimes, whilst ignoring the huge list of REAL AND ACTUAL war crimes that have been commited by Russia over the last year (and that's being super generous by ignoring the pre-2022 ones).

Lol it's been a while since I expressed frustration re: how we're in a place where we just have to agree with having insane drive-by fuckwits from CSPAM as it felt really loving insulting to share a space with them and I was honestly surprised they even existed in such large numbers.

It's like a forum you liked to visit for news and threads like this suddenly got a Stormfront neighbour two clicks away but "relax bro it's a completely different sub forum" yeah but if I live somewhere bordering Russia I really would appreciate it if they were gone.

A mod came in to "get a better picture of what was bothering so many" or some poo poo like that, asked stupid loving questions and seemed to disregard any actual answers or was just too plain stupid to get the idea, but if we drop the pretense it wasn't a sincere effort at all and the thread got closed lmao here we are a year later and these fuckwits are still doing the bit.

I've accepted that this place has some problems on the admin level and just ignore it. gently caress them.

Just ignore them, they’re basement communists just who reflexively hate the decadent west except when it comes to sports/tv shows/movies they like. They’re not as bad as stormfront, I think that’s a little unfair.

It’s all a lot funnier if you pay attention to all the threads the lunatics post in that aren’t politics related. I especially love when the tankies post in the GBS weed thread.
