This one is really something.

Yeah. If it was an adult, they might know it's an ad hominem.

[-] sammer510@hexbear.net 50 points 1 year ago

How can you know enough to be aware that whataboutism is a word but not know what it actually means??? The mind boggles

[-] Frank@hexbear.net 22 points 1 year ago

Pretty sure that one is just trolling. It's a stock response, they're probably just throwing it out to frustrate Tuga.

[-] Jenniferr@hexbear.net 27 points 1 year ago

Lol for sure a bit

[-] emizeko@hexbear.net 22 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

lmao funny reply, I'm iffy on the bit as a whole though

[-] Flaps@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago

'Grandpa what did you do during the war?'

' Told people on the internet they were doing a heckin whataboutism sweetheart'

'But, isn't that pretty lame? Your name was Warrior of Ukraine, shouldn't you have been in the trenches with your friends?'

'Whataboutism'

hitler-detector is one of our best new emotes

[-] a_talking_is2@hexbear.net 56 points 1 year ago

That's a bit account. No, it can't be real. ohnoes Someone from Hexbear just made a checklist of lib cliches and going through it.

[-] GarbageShoot@hexbear.net 46 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Contra to some other people, I don't think this is a bit account, just a Ukrainian nationalist (fascist) who also hates euro libs

[-] Ram_The_Manparts@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

You may be right

[-] polskilumalo@lemmygrad.ml 43 points 1 year ago

He's like the low hanging fruit of dunking. You kind of feel shame for them due to how easy it is to dunk on people like that.

Like can you imagine that? Actually being that low hanging fruit? Jesus what a torturing existence.

[-] ZoomeristLeninist@hexbear.net 26 points 1 year ago

we get a lot of low effort trolls here. it might get repetitive, but it makes them easier to spot

[-] SuperZutsuki@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago

This fruit is actually below sea level hanging in a sinkhole next to the tree

[-] Zrc@hexbear.net 43 points 1 year ago

might be a bit account, saw them shit talking the west for rehabilitating nazis in some thread

[-] a_talking_is2@hexbear.net 42 points 1 year ago

Yes, that's a great bit. A lot of personality, not your regular shallow parody.

I refuse to believe this is a real person. This is just a bot designed to parrot anti-com arguments or an elaborate troll. Something something Poe's law.

[-] Flinch@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago

We already saw what the Soviets did to Europe and the Russians are trying to do that again.

sicko-wistful

[-] a_talking_is2@hexbear.net 35 points 1 year ago

Well, that's… Sure is something.

[-] Frank@hexbear.net 24 points 1 year ago

That is a very funny, almost right take. I've not seen that particular one before.

[-] DamarcusArt@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 1 year ago

So what, this guy is suggesting some kind of "third way" or...oh.

[-] Jenniferr@hexbear.net 34 points 1 year ago

Damn an actual nazi that's crazy

[-] marx_mentat@hexbear.net 34 points 1 year ago

Pretending to be a Nazi as a bit

[-] sammer510@hexbear.net 33 points 1 year ago
[-] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago

I appreciate the edit that removes the ableism from this.

[-] TrudeauCastroson@hexbear.net 30 points 1 year ago

I'm pretty sure they're a bit account. I've seen them have a not bad take on something before, and it seems too aware when admitting Azov are nazis since the standard lib line is to deflect from it.

[-] Frank@hexbear.net 29 points 1 year ago

This might be a bit account but there are plenty of fascists running around in UA that genuinely, sincerely believe this with no trace of irony or self awareness.

Perrenial reminder that the OUN-B, Bandera's fascist outfit, never had more than 20k members, and the UPA insurgency never had more than 100k. Meanwhile there were between 4 million and 7 million comrades from Ukraine in the Red Army and I hope most of them passed peacefully before they could see what has been done to their country.

[-] ilyenkov@hexbear.net 9 points 1 year ago

Also important to remember is that the West helped a lot of OUN, etc. members escape to the US and especially Canada, then helped and their wretched spawn gain power in post Soviet Ukraine. Mass support for Banderism didn't just sprout up completely organically in modern Ukraine.

[-] Frank@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I follow Banderalobby.substack.com and they're all about keeping track of Banderites in North America and what they're up to around the world. It's certainly interesting and gives some perspective on what's happened. They had very interesting post when that Canadian vice-PM or whatever turned up at a photo op and received a Blood and Soil scarf from an OUN-B group.

[-] ilyenkov@hexbear.net 5 points 1 year ago

Ooh, I'll have to check that substack out, haven't seen it before. Thanks!

[-] Dr_Gabriel_Aby@hexbear.net 27 points 1 year ago

I got into an argument with someone who said it doesn’t matter that Victoria Nuland handpicked the unelected successor to the overthrown Ukrainian government in 2014, because they (the poster) handpicked Joe Biden to be president in 2020 and he happened to win. These people literally can’t understand anything that challenges the idea of American exceptionalism.

[-] aaaaaaadjsf@hexbear.net 27 points 1 year ago

Jesus Christ, an honest to god Nazi.

[-] Awoo@hexbear.net 24 points 1 year ago

I'm pretty sure this is a bit account.

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 !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

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
