He's becoming an authoritarianpowercry-2

[–] yogthos@lemmy.ml 10 points 10 months ago (1 children)

It's mostly notable that this is now being openly reported by western media. Also, LMFAO @ all the downvotes here. I guess the libs are really upset learning the truth about their hero.

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 15 points 10 months ago (1 children)

blob-no-thoughts us hexbears can't see downvotes because we actually take pride in actually calling people out for their shit opinions instead of hiding behind a down vote button like a petulant shy child, which is honestly an insult to children to be compared to these libs

[–] yogthos@lemmy.ml 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

downvotes and regurgitating insults like trained seals are the only ways libs know how to communicate

They pride themselves on being well-learned and good at debate, but then you actually make an effort to do so in good faith and they respond in mass downvotes and petty insults. I've reached a point where I just respond with beneath-the-belt insults that they respond to by reporting me for bullying lmao

I miss lemmy before reddit migration to be honest. There used to be a friendly community of people who could have interesting and civilized discussions. Now we have a bunch of these chuds running around flinging feces.

The technical term is 'disrupting the democratic space.' It's an innovative approach to democracy that builds on the Bidenist model, where you're morally required to rubber stamp one bad option or It's not democracy anymore.

The cool new twist is that the rubber stamping has been automated to save everyone time and keep anything unexpected from happening.

Yo what's the story behind your user name. Every time I see it I think "yogurt man" in my head

This was hilariously inevitable when they made him a hero. The only way to end the war is to make him a villain next.

We're slowly getting there it seems with western press all of a sudden discovering that there's mass corruption, nazis, autocracy, and all the other things they were pretending weren't happening for the past year and a half. Icarus flew too close too the sun, and the wax is starting to melt.

They're getting ready to get rid of him aren't they.

[–] yogthos@lemmy.ml -1 points 10 months ago

When western media starts publishing these kinds of articles, that's generally a sign that the gig is up.

Btw all of these outlets are western press, Russia don't have any control over them so don't you go "mhu Russian propaganda" at me.
