I think OP was a megafan of a now-banned Ukrainian communist party that was banned because they took orders from the Kremlin. For everyone's context.
Ukraine has banned all communist organizations, communist symbols, communist songs (including L'internationale), etc. Even if the KPU had been a complete puppet of the Kremlin, it would be irrelevant.
Leftist politics are banned in Ukraine, as per the Decommunization efforts after Euromaiden.
It's not surprising why a country struggling to stay free of Russian imperialism would ban parties associated with Russian imperialism. This is like acting surprised that Germany banned the Nazi party.
westoid "leftists" explaining why banning leftism is okay cause russia bad
why cant you all just go back to your liberal hivemind on reddit
Never said I was a leftist, you all are ridiculous, defending Russian imperialism and shit
if you're not even a leftist, why are you on this site
On Lemmy? Because Reddit sucks.
On this post? Because it appeared in All and I think leftists are fun to argue with for the same reason I argue with conservatives. I like occasionally reminding myself of how horseshit political thought is outside of social liberal circles
I mean, let's take you. You're literally celebrating being a wumau tankie. It's basically a self-parody at this point.
How can you say “tankie” with a straight face? It’s such a childish, meaningless, and unserious word.
even since liberals started using the word "tankie," it's lost all of its power as an insult
As though it had any power as an uncommon insult used by trots of all people. It had as much power as their newspapers.
admitted liberals*
anarchists are liberals, too
online definetly, irl maybe theyre a bit more serious
If you want to behave like a redditor, go back to reddit.
Show us on the doll where Putin touched you.
I mean I object to his imperialist invasion of Ukraine. You don't, then?
Lemmygrad users typically take a position of critical support to Russia on the war since U.S./NATO is not the good guy here.
Search up Euromaidan if you’re interested in how this all started in 2014
If you call Russia imperialist do you have a consistent definition for imperialism? Whatever Russia’s doing the US is the hegemonic empire. They’ve invaded so many more countries, done countless coups, imposed punitive economic measures, extracted resources and stolen way more territory than the Russian federation. Same with Europe and Canada. How about you deal with the log in your eye before pointing out the splinter in someone else’s.
I object to your mishandling of the word 'imperialism'
Do we tell them, or let them figure out at the Biden booth?
Der er ingen i det danske eller engelske sprog der kan beskrive hvor stor en idiot du er
shut up dronie
Such liberal nonsense. You just follow the western hive mind, no sign of critical thinking. Pathetic.
My friend, this is lemmygrad, we are ebil tankies
Do imperialist propagandists like you always invent shit on the spot?
I'm not inventing anything, that's why the Ukrainian communist party was banned. They were Kremlin spies.
Thank you, Senator McCarthy, you're a true American hero
Its so fucking funny that it is EXACTLY the same rhetoric used back then.
“Actually, McCarthy is speaker not senator” /s
Go argue with Zelenskyy lmfao
Bro this is literally red scare propaganda back from the mccarthyism era 😂
That's a very interesting claim! Could you add some citations so I can research this further? Do you know if all the other communist parties banned after the US-backed democratic revolution in 2014, as well as the dozen or so parties banned shortly after Russia began its unprovoked war of aggression against its democratic, sovereign neighbour are/were agents of the Kremlin as well?
That's a nice argument, why don't you back up it with a source?
Can you give me an example of those orders?
Frippa is like 15 years old and in Italy 😭 try again lib
Bruh that actually does check out
Yes I am
