He uses some famous examples of American leftist intellectuals (to some extent) siding with Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Unfortunately, it is a thing.
You are a bit confused but that's OK
Says the person clearly confusing either tankies or liberals (or both? lol) for leftists.
People on the actual left A. never fell for Putin who has clearly been a dictator in the making since he got the job, and B. ideologically oppose all and any states, and their leaders, so suggesting that, of all groups, leftists are the ones who somehow bought in to Putin is the most clueless and wilfully ignorant take.
Being a mod doesn't somehow magically make you correct nor well informed.
Oh sorry, the "actual" left. That solves everything, thanks
OK now you are really confused. Please note I'm the moderator lol
So now that's a thinly veiled threat on top of telling him how his own country works?
Yes, I have the power to end his entire career in this community. He should be polite to everyone, not just me, but I am also included with everyone. That being said, what is all this bullshit about "his own country"? People don't magically know how their own country works, let alone other countries. Also I don't even know which country is his country and I don't give a damn. He apparently doesn't know what country I'm from either.
