Oh no, did somebody get a two day ban from !memes@lemmy.ml for calling someone “imperialist genocidal scum”?
but my sources getting called "nazi blood libel propaganda" is ok, isn't it?
Do you deny the genocide being carried out by Russia?
I’m in no position to confirm or deny such a thing right now, with the fog of war still so thick. It depends on 1) what has actually occurred vs what Western war propaganda claims has occurred[1], and 2) which of the various narrow-to-broad definitions of genocide one deploys. When everyone is blaming everyone else of genocide while Gazans are literally being intentionally snuffed out, casual accusations ring a bit hollow.
It’s funny how in Feb. of 2022, Western corporate media suddenly memory-holed their own reporting on eight years of Ukrainian government-backed fascist Banderite paramilitary attacks on eastern Ukrainians, and flipped the ethnic cleansing narrative on its head virtually overnight.

What’s funny, is how you post this crap and still refuse to answer weather or not you’re pro-Russia.
I’ve made my position clear dozens of times, but go on.
The words “yes” and “no” are both complete sentence. Feel free to use either one that best answers the question.

This is not a sportsball game or the Marvel Cinematic Universe. I’m not on the “side” of a capitalist state[1][2], which is what Russia and Ukraine and Ukraine’s “ally” are.Yeah… predictably, you refused to answer. And for future reference, if it’s of any favor to you, I, and I’m sure many others- do not read any of your little copypasta links. So save yourself the time and effort and just…
Stop.
Maybe you can better use that saved time and effort to “Rule 1” more people from . ml?
I […] do not read any of your little copypasta links.
And it seems you never cite a blessed thing, though it’s hard to say since you delete most of your comments for some reason 🤷
MLs aren't leftists.
Apparently the core purpose of your account is to just assert this over & over 😂 Thanks for your valuable input

One of the centerpieces of the cultural cold war was the Congress for Cultural Freedom (CCF), which was revealed in 1966 to be a CIA front. Hugh Wilford, who has researched the topic extensively, described the CCF as nothing short of one of the largest patrons of art and culture in the history of the world. Established in 1950, it promoted on the international scene the work of collaborationist academics such as Raymond Aron and Hannah Arendt over and against their Marxian rivals, including the likes of Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir.
