      I have literally never once seen a pro-Putin post.

      Really? I see so many anti-Clinton, anti-Biden and anti-Democrat posts here. You literally supported Russia’s illegal electoral interference to undermine our democracy. You were the reason we got Trump. You are pro-Putin, just admit it.

        If not: USA does bad thing

        But they do bad thing

        USA bad thing is worse

        USA tries to be good

        USA kills millions and destabilizes the world

        You wouldn’t vote for harm reduction

        “Harm reduction”

        Conservative bad

        Oh here we go, it’s the most important election again, right?

        Putin’s puppet

        Ukraine should surrender the two pieces of land so they can stop fighting

        Not how it works

        I wouldn’t go to bat for a place that has no interest in helping a socialist project. It’s not my war

        Incrementslism

        We’re incrementing away with shit like abortion restrictions

        Conservatives

        It happened with democratic majority

        Not supermajority

        Lucy and the football

        If you voted for them-

        “If you voted for them 🙄”

        All Putin’s talking points, see, Hexbear be like

        See, not a single leftward consession. Do you think it was brunch losers who canvased for Biden? Professional losers

        I hate you

          that’s not how it works line in regards to the Donbas leaving Ukraine really gets to me. They use it constantly whenever you you bring up what is the most likely outcome of that war. How do they think it works?

            They genuinely refuse to acknowledge reality in that respect, here’s a quote from some lib in another thread:

            Ukraine is absolutely willing to talk about peace, thing is Russia has to leave the country first.

              Good faith question: why so adamant that Russia get Ukraine’s land?

        The US alt-right is extremely anti-NATO. Interestingly, on the exact opposite premise as Hexbear.

        The alt-right believes NATO costs the US a lot of money just to benefit other countries, by protecting them from Russia, without really benefiting the US. The alt-right wants to put America first and spend the money on America instead, even if all the other ex-NATO countries fall to Russian invasion.

        Hexbears believe NATO is a colonial money making machine that is profitable for the US.

        Only one side can actually be right. Either NATO is net profit for the US, or it’s net loss. So who is right?

      I really don’t get how people can’t understand that it’s possible for a person to support something and also admit it’s flaws. Like, people are really out here not understanding dialectical thinking. It IS possible for something to be two things at once.

      There’s plenty of comments, some even in this post, that paint Putin out to be some kind of anti-fascist.

      Which is objectively wrong and fucking ridiculous. Putin is helping fund fascist movements in the west. He’s an ultra homophobic/transphobic dictator trying to spread his empire through misinformation, terror, and violence.

      I absolutely don’t think Hexbear is actually fascist or right wing. But I think Hexbear takes legitimate criticisms of the US, NATO, Europe, and white imperialism and white colonization, and runs so far they end up using alt-right taking points and losing the leftist plot.
