For what countries laws? He’s not a Ukrainian citizen

So if you’re not an American you’re free to sabotage the US as much as you want and it’s not a crime?

This doesn't even make sense. He is an American and he didn't sabotage the US in any way. You can argue he "sabotaged" Ukraine, but that's not the US.

How are these people this stupid?

[-] [email protected] 43 points 2 years ago

they're admitting that this is a US proxy war against russia and that ukraine is a vassal of the empire, not a sovereign state.

[-] [email protected] 31 points 2 years ago

besides sabotaging the us should get you order-of-lenin

Anyone, American or otherwise, has a moral obligation to sabotage the US at every possible opportunity

Musk is a war criminal. This is a crime against humanity.

Musk is a war criminal for not wanting to help escalate a conflict that could go nuclear.

Don't get me wrong I wish Musk would trip into a volcano but this is actually a good thing

Edit: Another banger holy shit lol

Yeah, in the mid 90s the world was so optimistic about Russia, and frankly reassured about the nukes going to Russia, which was believed to be the more confidently governed nation state.

Everyone was still riding high on the cold war seemingly coming to a close.

Plus the whole "he committed treason" stuff makes my blood boil. All treason is the state not liking you.

Hmm, I wonder how Russians felt in the mid 90s.

Oh. Oh no.

international-community-1international-community-2 collectively orgasmed as they finally got the opportunity to loot and pillage and steal and murder their way to extra wealth from the dismantling of the USSR.

Yeah, everyone had so much confidence in the guy who was frequently drunk in public while president.

[-] [email protected] 22 points 2 years ago

Frequently drunk in public and had tanks fire upon parliament when they tried to impeach him. Western libs never had an issue with authoritarianism in liberalized Russia until it stopped being subservient to the West.

You want to kill Elon because he may have possibly prevented nuclear armageddon.

I want to kill Elon because he's a racist egomaniac billionaire despite possibly having prevented nuclear armageddon.

WE ARE NOT SAME

all valid reasons but you forgot to include paedophile

Elon is not the president, a leader, the military, nor a government. This parasite should be in a prison or a brig at the very least. This is fucking treason.

How, how could it possibly be treason?! Elon is not a Ukrainian citizen and Russia isn't at war with the US, South Africa, or Canada (apparently he's a Canadian citizen too).

screm-aAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Yes. Assisting putler’s genocide against Ukrainian children is a war crime.

Billionaires should share and facilitate our bloodlust for nuclear catastrophe.

But calling for billionaires and other wealthy, elite capitalists—a small percentage of humanity—to be REDACTED for the sake of humanity itself is too extreme.

Politics is hard.

[-] [email protected] 18 points 2 years ago

That’s what irks me the most about these takes, they want the rhetorical weight of “war criminal! traitor!” but then don’t want to back that rhetoric up with the legal consequences for being a war criminal/traitor.

why is musk the one doing something reasonable god damn it

[-] [email protected] 29 points 2 years ago

Heartbreaking: the worst person you know just made a good point

On a serious note, why are reactionaries not chomping at the bit for war as much as libs are?

[-] [email protected] 33 points 2 years ago

They'd rather focus on fighting China. Libs love rallying up Europe and trying to maintain the complex network of vassal states and diplomatic relations, reactionaries see the writing on the wall and would rather pivot to a conflict with the direct competition. Also doesn't help that Putin has pretty successfully sold himself as a traditionalist, as opposed to the "progressive" West (literally arming Nazis but it's ok because they have a trans spokeswoman!!! wholesome)

[-] [email protected] 20 points 2 years ago

For libs, attacking Russia is subconsciously attacking the GOP. Visa versa for conservatives and China. Neocons are at a loss because the US can't unite against a big bad because they can't agree who the big bad is.

FWIW many conservatives do admire Russian reactionary politics despite it being the logical conclusion of neoliberal politics. And many liberals do want conflict with China, they just want it with Russia more.

Are we federated with these losers or do I have to make another account to dunk on them? Help I don't know how this Lemmy thing works.

[-] [email protected] 43 points 2 years ago

No, they said defederation is the last resort, so because Hexbear is anti-NATO, we better get our last resort in first and pre-emptively defederate from them.

There's also this thread "Fears of peace talks". Fears. Of. Peace. Talks.

Are we locked in on 'ledditors'? I want to suggest 'lemitors'

ledditors sounds like a metallic redditor rather than having to do with lemmy

I like ledditor because it sounds like it contains lead.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
