You forgot that every discussion about Ukraine/Russia is steered towards talking about US imperialism.

One guy just kept posting a link to the Wikipedia page on American imperialism over and over in his comments.

Talk about a one track mind.

Well clearly if you didn't read my random Wikipedia article the first time then clearly you will by the tenth, right?

It goes both ways though, anyone critical of US imperialism is quickly called a tankie. I'm happy Ukraine is getting help but it's annoying I constantly have to state that the moment I want to talk shit about the us military. Any kind of talk is becoming seriously toxic and the ones that are most vocal about hexbear users are usually just as bad.

Screaming tankie at the top of your lungs is just as cringe as screaming lib imo

Perhaps you haven't heard of the war and only noticed a lot of mentions of Ukraine recently. Actually, that's because there's a war there, that's why people keep bringing up Ukraine or showing their support for Ukraine, alternatively for Russia. The war is about USA imperialism, where the USA wants to do imperialism towards Russia and Russia is stopping them. So that's how those things are related. Ukraine is the battleground, and the USA is using Ukrainian humans as weapons. It's a very horrible situation.
