lemmy.ml, hexbear, and lemmygrad users verbally fellate contemporary and historical autocratic mass-murderers they deem to be “leftists”, most recently being Vladimir Putin, Xi Jingping, and Kim Jong Un.
They are, in reality, bitch-made invertebrates who don’t even have the arm-strength to lift their Molotov-sippy-cups out of their premium-outdoor-brand backpacks, let alone form meaningful opinions on economics, political philosophy, or geopolitical reality.
Name one time someone here said something good about putin, ill wait.
Hexbear is an instance where right wing trolls who love Putin pretend to be transgender.

That whole 'pretending to be trans' thing always kills me. Absolutely zero sense.
They just assume that because they don't know any trans people, there's no way so many folks are trans in one place online.
There's no way the oppressed would side with the tankies, not when I performatively support your rights (and will hang over your head whenever you disagree with me)
If anything, this website is more inclined on hunting down and prosecuting the cis. They'll never catch me though
So long as we just keep our heads down and don't bother anyone, we have no reason to worry!
B... But I filed all my paperwork!
I think it's just their internal rationalization for why it's okay to misgender people they disagree with, and then if you ask them to stop that's just more evidence for them that you're trolling.
Even more than that, let's actually assume for the sake of argument that in some sense, this was the case for a nonzero number of posters:
Does any of these scenarios actually justify treating those people any differently than someone who definitely is transgender? I don't see why any reasonable person should come to that conclusion.
Not supporting Azov Nazis makes you a Putler Nazi
the most that can be said is people saying he was right about shit he said, which is like, idk, sorry but sometimes bad people make statements about the world and events that are accurate to reality??
but these are the people who are like "j.d. vance called the chinese peasants...... does not.. compute.. how to defend China, when china bad? but. orange man say china bad, orange man bad..... could china be good??" so I'm really over giving a shit their illiterate shit lib asses think
Media: "Putin delivers deranged anti-American tirade!"
Putin's tirade: "The US has repeatedly meddled in the affairs of other nations."
Me:
Libs: "You are gay for a dictator."
i hate how accurate this entire post is
In particular guys like Putin, Lukashenko, (and funnily enough Orban) having come up through a communist party in their youth and being taught dialectical and historical materialism, will often very accurately outline the material factors leading to current events in speeches or interview, it's at the last moment where they pivot and say something self-serving and reactionary.
Kissinger had a pretty good idea about not escalating to nuclear confrontation between the USA and USSR and he was a demon and everyone here hates his extremely dead guts.
But I doubt anyone here would advocate for annihilating countless millions in nuclear hellfire just to oppose Henry Kissinger.
no, that sort of thing is something the libs do, when they for example make a video about nuclear holocaust not being that bad after all, and anyway, russia's nukes dont work because lol russia
I think some people were like
critical supportand a few were in support, but overall we don't care for himI should have been more clear, critical support is one thing (they seem to think the 'critical' means "omg we need to send our love now!"), but year we are hardly the mega fans they pretend we are
liberals also love to conflate the individual leader with the country and its entire state apparatus. critical support for the actions of russia combatting nato encroachment doesn't mean that we think putin personally is a great guy. I mean shit any competent leader in his shoes would have been pushed pretty strongly towards action by the material circumstances and the ongoing actions of the US in and via ukraine. But honestly he's irrelevant and we aren't making a moral judgement
Critical support means your support does 2.5x damage
Only if you have same-type attack bonus
Consider the following: "Harden Your Heart, Putin" and "The Man From Our Axis" are very catchy.
The fact that we only have one Putin emote
unironically says alot. There's not alot to joke about him unless you genuinely like him. No real enthusam for even a wide putin emote. (When would that even be use enough to justify an emote?)
Meanwhile theres like a page or two devoted to Biden and Trump.
He's pretty well-groomed, I guess.
Edit: You do not, under any circumstances "have to hand it to him"
there's like 2 people on the site i would say are even close to being "pro-putin", and 1 of them im not even sure if they're around anymore (zposter and zed proclaimer, for the record. zposter is still here, i have no clue what happened to zed proclaimer after he got banned and then one of his alts got banned)
I mean, we have Z_poster
