Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

MODERATORS
I am not questioning that Russia is bad. I am questioning why a conservative would fight for the side that is treasonous to join and might literally kill you when the other side is also willing to train even the most far-right radicals.
E: What's with the downvotes? Am I supposed to pretend that Ukraine doesn't have a problem with the far right?
You're being disingenuous because you're trying to paint the entirety of Ukraine as nazis, but I'll answer in good faith anyway: Because they swallowed the propaganda from tucker carlson and his ilk. Not to mention Russia itself is incredibly regressive. They basically made it illegal to be gay just last year. US conservatives love that shit.
I said that nazis have gone to Ukraine for military training in a post that implied Russia was even more fascist.
This doesn't imply that all of Ukraine's military are nazis, only that nazis have gone to Ukraine for military training.
Ya'll need better reading comprehension.
It's fucking wild if this guy considered Ukraine so woke that he had to go to Russia.
